+ All new classrooms !

I have been working hard to change over the all of the Encausticology Series of classrooms to a new system with very easy peasy access from your mobile phone , iPad, tablet , laptop, or desktop. Don't worry if you are in classes right now you will stay right where you are still with forever access. The old classrooms have limits to student #s and when they fill I have to make a new one , this makes a lot of classrooms to keep track of ! Also the system they are currently on has been giving some new students a little trouble on initial entry so time to up the technology a little bit so that all you have to do is create :)

New workshop

"Moving , the Paint and You !"

If you have taken my workshops in the past or watched Wax on Wednesdays on Youtube,

you are aware that I am HUGE on getting in and warming up with paint in the studio each morning.

Why?

So often we walk in to our creative spaces and clean , tidy, organize , read, watch youtube , instagram, Facebook , looking or waiting to be inspired . I am a huge proponent of your biggest source of inspiration coming from within you .

The only way to make this happen is for you to paint !

"Moving the Paint and You" gets you into your creative environment and taking action ! Moving the paint, your brain, and your body. Fun exercises in LOTS of fun mediums to get your artist brain craving more.

We will be working in:

cold wax

oil

encaustic

water color

acrylic

graphite

inks

and more !

We will paint BIG and small, using fun items from around your house or studio or the local dollar store and change it up each day using multiple mediums in fun combinations. You will never get bored ! Each day will also include fun inspirational quotes , and motivations to get you started painting.

Let's just say I like to think outside the box when it comes to my warmups, because I think it helps your brain:

release creative blocks

relax and let the creative process happen without the judgment shadow over your shoulder

jump starts and avalanche of new ideas !

Don't stop there! All of these exercises can be carried on after the initial warmup and carried through to a finished painting or incorporated into a larger work. And I will give you ideas for them as we move along.

What you will receive:

Intro video to supplies and techniques, and my movement theories on how to keep you inspired to paint everyday !

One warm up video each day for 30 days

full classroom with inspirational quotes and motivations to keep you Moving and PAINTING .

Lifetime access to videos and classroom so that you can refer back as often as you like even if your most inspired time is 2 in the morning :)

Private Facebook Group for sharing , and questions.

This is a process I have worked on for many years myself and in live workshops. Now you can have 30 exciting different exercises to choose from and solid techniques and practices to keep yourself and your paint motivating and moving each day forever !

NEW CLASSROOMS ! I have just begun moving of all of my courses to a new classroom format that is SO EASY to log in and begin creating !

Still forever access, still lots of videos with step by step instruction.
