Online Cold Wax Painting Classes in my studio style

I teach the same process I use in my own studio: how to build layered, expressive paintings with oils and cold wax or with acrylics and Powerwax. These classes are designed to help you paint with more confidence, stronger composition, and richer texture.

You will find step-by-step online painting lessons on portraits, figures, abstract flowers, color mixing, and mixed-media techniques. Whether you are a beginner or returning to painting after a break, you can move at your own pace and revisit lessons whenever you need.
