I am now offering a subscription service of fine art tutorials, at $5 a month!

It is called The Painter’s Classroom, because like a classroom this will be an ongoing exploration of all things painting.

What you will receive as a subscriber

I’m providing an online classroom for painters of pastel, oil and watercolor; portrait, landscape, and still life.  Although that seems broad, the concepts of painting are not confined to one medium or subject. They all can be explained using the visual language of shape, value, edge color, and application.   My posts will be based on lessons that explain painting through visual language. I like to simplify concepts into easy to understand building blocks that will strengthen your foundational skills.

I’ll also give studio tips, art material reviews, and whatever else art related that catches my fancy.  The possibilities are endless and the site will be a collaboration between us.

• I promise to post at least twice a month.

• I promise to keep the lessons informational, entertaining and short.

• I promise to teach a variety of subjects using video lessons, blog postings, downloadable handouts and demos.  

• I promise to respond quickly to your questions and comments.

• I promise to listen to your feedback which will help me design future lessons.

Patreon is a subscription service (like Netflix) where you pay a monthly fee.  This is much cheaper than attending a workshop or a class, yet offers many of the same benefits.   You can subscribe or unsubscribe as you like.

As the site grows I will add features such as personal critiques and online mentoring programs. But right now I would like to begin and welcome you to The Painter’s Classroom.
