Got something on your chest? Let's paint it.
Art is so much more than a pretty thing to hang on your wall. It's a creative therapy for me first and foremost to express my thoughts and feelings on the world around me and inside of me. Art can help us sort our feelings where words fail. This is why I made this course, so others can discover a new way to express their unique perspective of the world around them and inside them.
Who is this course for?
Beginner painters wanting to express themselves through abstract art. This course will show you Victoria's intuitive creative process and inspire you to find your own artistic voice đ„°
Who is this course NOT for?
Experienced painters looking for a highly detailed and advanced course (more courses to come!) OR if you think feelings are gross, or want your painting to be perfect. If you're new to painting get ready to get messy and make mistakes!

Questions you might be asking...
What skill level is this course for?
This is a beginner style course which covers the foundational preparation and creative process. Great for those who are new to painting or abstract expressionism. More in depth courses will be added in the future.
How much time will it take to complete the course?
That is up to you! This is a do at your own pace course with a total of 1.5 hours of video content but we recommend setting aside a minimum of an hour per module if you're a beginner, but take your time and go with the flow. Victoria usually spends 10-40 hours on a painting depending on the size.
Is this course with oils or acrylics?
Victoria uses acrylics paints with a few other mixed medias that are included in the shopping lists if you choose to use also.
How much do I need to spend on art supplies?
The course will include tips and product recommendations for different budgets. The smallest budget recommendation would be as little as $50 CAD to get enough value out of the course.
Will this course cover every detail of how Victoria paints?
This course will be covering and showing all the foundational techniques and materials Victoria uses in her practice, such as painting with acrylic and water and capturing your feelings on canvas regardless of skill level. Every painting is different so not every material and technique will be taught (such as realism sketching and painting as that is a unique and technical skill that requires a lot of practice and couldn't be covered in this foundational course). But don't fret, this course is all about getting you started with discovering your own unique expression, markings and materials which is an integral part of finding your unique creative voice, that only you have!
Can I use white primed canvas instead of raw?
You can absolutely use white primed canvas, linen, wooden panel, even watercolour paper if that is what is available to you! It will look slightly different than the raw primed canvas that Victoria primarily uses but the technique is very similar in nature and she will shows you how both white and raw canvases can be prepped and compare throughout the course.
Does this course have subtitles?
There will is english subtitles on all videos.
Do I have to paint outside in this course?
Absolutely not! You can paint anywhere that inspires you or wherever you have the space too. Victoria paints outside because that's where she's most inspired but the techniques you learn can be done anywhere.
