Ocean Alchemy - 30-Day Online Art Class

In this ocean themed class, I will be taking you along with me to my favorite places here at my home on the Oregon Coast. We will be using all of the magic from the sea for our inspiration - from treasures collected, color, pattern, texture and landscapes. I will be sharing videos, photos and downloads for you to use as we work through 30 days of mixed media prompts, techniques and concepts. My hope is to bring the beach to you and immerse you in all the natural wonders of the sea!

In this class we will be using drawing, painting and all kinds of mixed media techniques, concepts and supplies to explore the subject matter of the ocean. We will explore color, expression, layering, how to draw shells and sea creatures, doodles inspired by patterns found at the coast, abstraction, color, pattern and more.

I am sharing 30 creative techniques, prompts and exercises to get you playing around with inspiration pulled from my favorite beaches.

Ocean Alchemy is a class structured into 30 inspiring posts. The concept is that you have one simple idea, prompt or technique to work through each day for 30 days.

Once you register and pay, within 24 hours you will receive an email confirmation with class information.

NOTE ABOUT SUPPLIES: I don't typically have an official supply list for my classes because I always share a variety of different concepts that can be applied to a variety of supplies and surfaces. In this class you will see me working with the supplies below but most of the concepts and techniques can be applied to just about any materials!

An art journal - any type of sketchbook, mixed media art journal will work. I will be creating in a cheap composition notebook, a mixed media paper art journal and loose watercolor paper so you can see that options at different price points all work!

Loose paper - watercolor paper or bristol paper

Watercolor paint - any will work

Acrylic paint - any will work though I always recommend matte acrylic paint when working in an art journal.

Any types of brushes.
