PAINT IT OUT INTRODUCTION:

In every human there is both light and dark, Yin and Yang which creates a oneness a ‘whole being’. My latest class ‘Paint it out’ guides you on your own personal journey through the darker side. Usually my paintings are cheerful, wild and free but on occasion I want to paint a little from the darker side of my thoughts. In this class I will share my tips on creating wonderfully moody looking girls, creating art from everyday stressful situations, then going through some more restful projects to balance out the dark and ease us back into the light.

Within 15 self paced instructional videos this class will help you to express your emotions through layers of paint and let your own stories unfold.
