YOUR ARTIST JOURNEY CONTINUES HERE!

Was your childhood dream of being an artist sidelined as an adult?

For the past six months, have you found yourself watching your favorite artist’s paint-along videos?

From the few times you frantically painted-along, do you have a stack of half-finished paintings? 

Does a blank canvas with no video make you feel stuck and unsure?

Or, do you think you might be ready to sell your art, but you’re unsure how to set the price or where to sell or how to find a legitimate competition?

No matter where you are in your art making journey, I can help you take your next steps without the detours with the “Create Your Own Original Art” online course.

After choosing your favorites from the Artist Journey Toolbox™, you’ll create your own art in your own style every time!

Next you’ll get the business basics to show off your art, sell it, and enter it into legitimate shows. 

Then you can confidently call yourself an artist and realize your childhood dream!

I can’t wait to congratulate you! 🎉

What these Artists learned

Rashmi S.U. from

Dar es Salaam,

Tanzania

“I attended Create Your own Original Art class with Cindy.

I enjoyed the process of how she went through the complete process of selecting the subject, Planning, Composition, Color Palette, Thumbnails to Painting.

During the course, she shared interview with Gallery owner and Judging criteria too.

Thank You Cindy for the course.”

Susan C. from

Southern

California

“This is a course for artists of all levels!

It was validating to revisit art principles that I encountered years ago in college studio art classes.

It was also very informative in terms of practical issues I did not know: signing, framing art and getting it out into the community or ready to sell.

Cindy has a wealth of information and presented it in very manageable lessons.

Better than being a self paced class where you are completely self directed and independent in the experience, Cindy is present to acknowledge postings and answer questions.

The live Q&A session each Wednesday is a great opportunity to connect and get additional insight into the practice of creating art.

This four week class was well worth my time, and I feel refreshed and focused and equipped to take my art to the next step!”

Katharina M.

from

Germany

“It is interesting to see how a piece of art by Cindy is created.

In the course I learned that there are often different requirements that a painting has to meet if I want to have it exhibited.

The topic of framing, for example, was also new to me.”
