Hi everyone! The second week of May completely snuck up on me, but we have a live class scheduled for this week 🎉. Thursday May 15th @10am PST

The first live class of the month we deep dive and discuss a topic together ex: rocks, shadows, blending.

For this class I thought it would be a good idea to talk about some of the things I’m hearing from you in the chat. How to find your own style, release imposter syndrome, find your artistic voice and different ways to approach the beginning of a painting so the blank paper isn’t so scary.

What to bring: any paints, paper and brushes you like best. This class is going to be all about what you are drawn to. Also: if you have any colored pencils, pastels, gouache etc. that you want to experiment with while we explore these ideas, grab those too! I’m so excited to dive into this topic with you.

How live classes work: Thursday morning I will post the link to the main Patreon feed. You should get an email as well. At 10am PST, you will be able to click the link and join the class live. Classes are always recorded and available to watch any time, so come if you can but we love our replay crew!

Let me know if you have any questions

Wonderful! I've only recently joined and I've just finished the tomato painting, trying to catch up! haha. Unfortunately that's 3am here so I won't make it. I'll watch the recording though!

I have been enjoying doing the mini paintings but have not gone to a class. I will try to make this one. Thanks so much.!!

Hope everyone enjoyed a nice Mother's Day! Kristin, I am beginning to plan some paintings from some of my own photos, sketches, imagination, etc. I have a couple of questions. First, if a painting is going to be rather complex/detailed, how do you go about planning "stopping places?" For example, if you're painting a bunch of sailboats on a lake - you can do an overall wash (wet on wet) and come back later. Do you ever do paintings that have taken hours or days to complete? How to do you plan the stop/start places in the painting so you can run errands, etc.? And second, how do you know WHERE, after sketching, is the best place to start? Whew. Thank you!
