I had never held a brush before. Six weeks later my first landscape hangs in our living room.
The lessons on colour mixing alone were worth it. Clear, patient and very practical.
Short videos I can follow after work, and feedback that really helps me improve.
The masterclass pushed me to paint bigger and bolder. Highly recommended.
