Ready to explore new creative possibilities with abstract art?
Creating abstract art that feels personal and meaningful requires persistence, experimentation, and the courage to explore new ideas. In Braver Things, I invite you into my creative process as I work through a series of mixed media paintings, building themes and ideas along the way.
This course blends both mindset and technique. As I paint, I share insights into my design choices, materials, and methods, providing you with tools and inspiration to guide your own creative journey. Whether your style is bright and playful or earthy and textural, Braver Things will help you turn creative sparks into beautiful artwork.
Get access to step-by-step instruction!
You don’t need any prior painting experience to get started. The lessons are designed to be easy-to-follow and can be adapted to suit your style and skill level. I’ll guide you through the entire process.

This class has literally changed my creative world! I’m thrilled to get back into my craft room and create again. Laura gave me the permission I didn’t know I needed to just go ahead and PLAY! It was the creative style I was looking for—she speaks my language! Take the class, any class, ALL THE CLASSES! You will gain something valuable from every class!

Prepare yourself to enter into a beautiful creative haven with Laura! Her classes have filled me with new inspiration, refreshed creativity and left me feeling like I had a visit with the most precious of friends! Do yourself a favor and soak up all her goodness.

I love the neutral colors and how Laura incorporates nature elements into her lessons. She has a personal, calming, and welcoming presence that encourages you to find your own artistic style. Laura shares many techniques and personal stories on overcoming any blocks you may encounter. I truly appreciate the way she brings nature into her teachings.
Curriculum
A Quick Word About Supplies
In Braver Things, you’ll see me using a variety of materials—watercolour, acrylic, oil, spray paint, and more—to explore themes and experiment with texture and expression. While I’ve listed the supplies I worked with, there’s no need to match them exactly. If you have some art supplies gathering dust, this could be the perfect chance to bring them out and experiment! Whether you loosely follow along or simply watch for inspiration, there’s plenty of space to make this process your own. With that in mind, I encourage you to approach the Supply List as a gentle guide rather than a prescriptive list.
I've had the joy and privilege of teaching over 40,000 students across the globe through my online classes.
Meet Laura, your teacher
Hello, I'm Laura
I'm a mixed media artist from Adelaide, South Australia. Ten years ago, I picked up a paintbrush. I had two young children, and like many mothers, I felt a little lost among all the nappies.
As soon as I reconnected with my creativity, I felt a spark. I quickly fell in love with all things art. The yummy supplies, the supportive community, and the sense of purpose and satisfaction that came from doing something I truly loved.
I followed my passion and built a beautiful, messy life around it. Things rarely went to plan, but I amazed myself with the things that I could do. From selling my work at markets and cafes to running a retreat in Bali, right through to hosting a top-rated art podcast.
Tapping into my creativity gave me clarity and confidence, and it can do this for you too.
