About the Courses

Online courses have been such a big part of my learning journey! There’s just something about watching another artist that can help you improve much more quickly.

The difference between courses and tutorials is the length and depth of instruction. They are all priced individually. I’m trying to keep everything at a reasonable cost so that most everyone can enjoy them. Once purchased, you will have access to the videos for for life (well, at least for my life!). They can be viewed on a desktop, iPad or mobile device.

Scroll down to see the available courses and tutorials. I’m adding new material all the time, so check back frequently. You may also want to check out my YouTube channel which is full of free content (see link below).
