Here's What People Had To Say

  1. Sunset in chicago

    We had a great night the painting was fun

  2. Loved this!

    My husband and I loved doing this tutorial together. It was easy and turned out beautifully. Even if someone has never painted before they would easily be able to follow the instruction.

  3. Sloath - Just Hanging around

    We’ll done and great experience

  4. Art is best made simple

    I thoroughly enjoyed the tutorial by Tess about “Sunset in Chicago” because not only was the painting process made simple, it was also clear and calm, which increased my confidence level. Chicago isn’t often viewed as having romantic sunsets, such as Honolulu, Miami or Los Angeles however the quirkiness of the tutorial seemed somehow to capture the spirit of a Chicago sunset as in “It is cold as hell out here so get your paints ready, follow my instructions and then run home and warm up!” Overall, Tess made me recognize that fine art does not take forever to create.

  5. Loved Painting This!

    This was a great first time painting experience - I haven't painted in over 10 years! My boyfriend and I had picked up a bottle of wine and followed along once we got all the materials. The instructor in the digital tutorial was very easy to follow along - all in all, it was a fun experience, and I'd be happy to do it again!

Can I really create my own painting?
