All videos are downloadable and the course comes with lifetime access. Scroll further down for the course curriculum including video duration.




Inside the course, you will ...

  • Learn two different approaches to painting your background.
  • Experiment with techniques for adding contrast and texture including etching, dripping, repetitive mark-making, doodling, finger painting and colour blocking.
  • Quieten down areas that have become too busy and get over the fear of covering things up.
  • Find inspiration in nature and work through creative challenges and blocks.
  • Become more confident in adding imagery to your work by practising on paper.
  • Use wet-in-wet techniques to create gorgeous flowy botanicals with acrylic ink.
  • Bring it all together, adding and subtracting elements until your paintings feel balanced. It's a process that takes practice and a willingness to play and experiment!


I love Laura’s teaching style and the techniques and information she imparts has grown my art practice immensely. Can’t wait for more classes!!
