I’ve just released a brand new, exclusive two-part Christmas Cardinal tutorial created especially for my Dabbler members and higher. This vibrant red cardinal, set against a blue-green background with a chartreuse scalloped frame and violet stripes, felt like the perfect festive project to slow down and savor.

✨ Something new this time: instead of one long video, I’ve intentionally broken this tutorial into two manageable parts so you can paint in shorter, more relaxed sessions—no rushing, no overwhelm.

Your full supply packet (traceable outline, supply list, reference photo, and color-mixing guide) is ready for you to download below.

💬 I’d truly love your feedback:Do you enjoy this two-part format, or would you prefer one longer video in the future? Your input helps shape what I create just for you.

Thank you for being part of this special, creative corner of Patreon. ❤️

OMG! That had to be nerve racking. I’m so upset about these shootings. What is happening to our fellow Americans? It’s senseless.
