FAQs

What is PAINT WITH FREEDOM?

PAINT WITH FREEDOM is about embracing creativity without constraints—letting go of perfection and breaking away from rigid rules. It’s an invitation to paint boldly, using expressive brushstrokes that capture energy and emotion rather than getting caught up in fine detail.

When I paint en plein air, I often hear from fellow artists who admire the looseness and spontaneity of my style. Many tell me they wish they could let go and paint with that same bold, free spirit. My hope is to inspire others to trust their instincts, loosen their grip, and paint with the same sense of freedom.

Are the courses live or pre-recorded?

These weekly courses are pre-recorded providing flexibility to learn at your own pace.

How long have you been painting?

It had been a long time since I'd picked up a paintbrush, and he gave me the perfect balance of instruction and freedom to do my own thing.
