Micki Wilde’s “Paint Happy” class was one of the first online classes I tried and fell in love with the entire concept of online art classes. She’s fun and funny to watch and listen to and makes you feel like whatever you are going to do next with your art with be OK!
One of the favorite things to come out of the US election this year was that I had to get away from all the negative fighting banter that was happening on social media so one of my tactics was to start befriending and following artists on social media. This has been such a blessing and I suggest you do the same. SO much better to have a feed filled with happy furry friends, flowers and fairytale girls than memes about Donald and Hillary.
Micki started painting these wonderful whimsical animals several months ago and I fell in love with them all! Scads of her artsy friends continued to say.. PLEASE do a class!! Finally this week she has done it! I’m signing up right now
THE STORY TELLERS ART WORKSHOP by MICKI WILDE
This class is a ‘storyteller animals’ themed mini class with a whimsical face tutorial plus 4 ‘Storyteller’ wonderful whimsical animal paintings with a pastel color theme.
The animal paintings use Micki’s personal symbols and markings to express her own life stories through art. She promises to share her drawing and painting techniques so that you can go forward painting in your own style, painting from your wild imaginations and using your own personal symbols to add meaning to your work.
Also included is teacher support with access to a private Facebook group. Teacher support/advice/critiques etc is always available throughout the duration of your time in the class. MICKI WILDE SUPPLY LIST:
