is creating Art Lessons & PaintingsSelect a membership level
You'll gain access to monthly exclusive in-depth, full length video art lessons (30+ mins) on topics like:
- Painting a portrait from start to finish
- Palette and material guides
- Crying
These videos will only be viewable by patrons, who will have access to the entire library of art lessons as it grows
I'll also share all references used for the paintings featured in the lessons.
Once a month you'll open your mailbox and find a 4x6in postcard with a different print of mine on the front. Don't be alarmed, this is normal!
The piece of art chosen will never be made available as a print anywhere else.

About
In 2017 I was listed as one of NH Magazine's "Remarkable Women" of the year, which is pretty cool. Most recently, I was profiled in The Jealous Curator’s new book A Big Important Art Book (Now With Women!) and had my work accepted into the permanent collection of the Library of Congress.
For the past 3 years I have been teaching art classes in a community education setting and at the collegiate level. Helping artists grow their skills and encouraging creativity in my students has been more rewarding than I could have imagined. This is why I am excited to provide art lessons through videos posted to patreon! Through these in-depth videos I hope to share my knowledge and help you improve on your art skills.
Becoming a patron will give you access to all of the guides on different topics in the art making process, as well as downloadable files of the reference material I use to create each piece featured in the videos. If you choose to subscribe to the "Postcard Collector" tier, you'll receive all of the same benefits plus an exclusive postcard with a print of one of my pieces on the front. None of the images used for the postcards will be made into a print anywhere else, so you'll look like the coolest kid on your block if you have them all.
In all honesty, any support means the world to me. Less than a decade ago I was in such a dark place and felt life wasn't worth living. Art gave me purpose and saved my life in my late teens, and back then I never thought I would have a bunch of strangers on the internet caring about what I create. It is so special to me, and I hope to be able to continue making stuff for many more decades to come!
Goals
If reached, I will make 2 videos per month instead of 1. Wow. Amazing.
