Before joining Carrie’s weekly class, watch our introduction to painting tutorial video!

Introduction to Weekly Painting with Carrie:

This tutorial is not a prerequisite for the Weekly Painting Course, however, you will gain a greater understanding of the essential art supplies needed to get started and how to navigate the overwhelming buying options online and in the stores. There will be a discussion on the different brush selections, painting surfaces, palettes, paints, and more. The drawing exercises will get you inspired and remind you how important drawing is to our development as artists! Remember, one of the joys of being an artist is developing keen observation skills in order to see the world a little differently than most!

The only supplies you will need for this class is a sketchbook (or plain paper), pencil, and an eraser!
