Online Painting Courses

Finally after many years of teaching, I have produced a set of the first four online painting courses for those of you that have a passion for painting and want to learn to paint or just improve your skills!  If you are not able to travel to one of those places that I am teaching this is definitely the course for you. Paint in your own home, at your own pace.  The more practice you get, the better painter you will become!  The first set of videos will include four 80-90 minute instructional videos.  A floral, a seascape, a landscape, and a still life.  Your online package is filled with information that will get you well on your way to success!
