Why do I have to sign up, can’t I just buy it?

Before purchasing, you'll be asked to create a free account. We know it's an extra step, but it only takes a moment and means you'll have one place to access this course and any future mini courses you decide to take. Once you're set up, everything is simple and ready whenever you are.

Is this a membership I keep paying for?

No! This is a one off payment for lifetime access to this course. When I add more courses you pay for them separately. And you can access them all in the same place in the future. You won’t be asked to buy this one again.

So why isn’t this a membership?

I intend to add more courses in future. But I want people to be able to only buy the ones they are interested in, (and not worry about the ones that don’t appeal). Buying the course you want, when you want them means you don’t have ongoing membership fees . I think this is fairer and transparent for all my customers. I hope you like this approach.

Testimonials

  • I have never painted in oils before so I was a total beginner but Louise explained and demonstrated everything I needed to know from start to finish. She lists all the equipment you will need beforehand and shows how to prime your canvas which was something I didn't realise you had to do!

  • All the videos are easy to understand and follow and they take you all the way from beginning to end in producing your still life. It's fun watching her describing and showing different techniques. I now know how to correct mistakes without it being a big deal.

  • The videos showing colour mixing were amazing - I never realised how many colours, tones and shades were able to be created with just a few basics. You have lifetime access so I can go back again and again to recap and collect more information

  • This course is superb value, there's so much in here. Louise is a generous teacher.
