Come inside the course and discover the benefits of using a limited palette and keeping things simple!
Overflowing art supplies, half-finished paintings, endless ideas ... It can be difficult to find a way through all the noise.
Imagine inviting ease into your creative process, creating more with less, and bringing mindfulness to the way that you approach your art. In this class, you can! We'll strip things right back and work with neutral colours, earthy textures, and simple design.
You'll create a cohesive set of mixed media paintings, plus there's a wonderful bonus lesson that shows you how you can use these principles to create quick watercolour and ink paintings. This is one of my most popular classes as the process is calming and suited to all levels, including complete beginners!
Get access to step-by-step instruction!
You don't need any mixed-media experience to get started. The lessons are easy-to-follow and can be adapted in many ways. I'll teach you how.

I have grown so much as an artist after taking Laura’s classes. Her classes are filmed professionally, and she is a delightful, inspiring teacher. I love the fact that it is a family run art business and that Laura’s husband is involved in the filming. The classes are genuine, encouraging, easy to follow, and authentic.

I am reconnecting with art after decades away and have discovered Laura Horn Art. I had so much fun with the intuitive painting style she teaches in the mixed media series. It took all the pressure off and allowed me to focus on the process, creating layer upon layer. I highly encourage you to take her classes!
Curriculum
A Quick Word About Supplies
The demonstrations for this class can be adapted to a variety of mediums. You will see me using watercolour paper, acrylic paint, acrylic ink, collage, pens, pencils, and pastels, but you do not need to have all of these things!
More than likely, you will have things around the home that you can use, such as old books or magazines for collage, pencils and pens, craft glue, and so on.
Many of my students enjoy watching the class first before deciding on their supply choices.
I've had the joy and privilege of teaching over 30,000 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.
