You know that a MORE PAINTERLY STYLE is what you're after,

“This course was amazing! I learned how to organize my pastels, use thumbnail sketches to guide my paintings, and create color studies to choose a color scheme with confidence.

Alain’s painterly roadmap makes everything easier, and all this helped me in refining my work without overdoing it.

This course is great in teaching all aspects of how to create a painterly landscape!" - Kathy

I can see that I have become freer with my mark making as well as better with laying down the foundations of my paintings with the values in my underpainting.

Overall, everything has become stronger in my work.

This course journey helped me focus on the process rather than always thinking about the end result, which made my markings bolder and more determined.

Since taking this course I have a much better understanding of color theory and how to paint using any colors I want.

I also feel much more comfortable with soft pastel techniques and mark making.

This course is an amazing source of educational knowledge, especially if you’re using soft pastels for the first time.

Anne

I finally have a solid foundation that lets me create art while taking more risks.

Learning the overall process really resonated with me.

Before, painting landscapes felt unstructured and overwhelming, but the step-by-step approach made it clear and low risk.

I now have a new language that will guide me in the creation and evaluation of my work!
