A few years ago, I was stuck with my art. No matter how hard I tried, my work never looked the way I wanted.

I read books. I took courses. I spent hours on Instagram looking at other peoples’ work. And then hours more trying to mimic it (unsuccessfully!)

But I finally found the answer and I’ve been on an amazing journey ever since.

Things are so different now…

I now create work that excites me. Making art is a joyful experience for me – and it shows in my work. I never struggle to make myself go into the studio. I don’t look to other artists for inspiration. 

I don’t worry about ‘failure’ because I know there’s no such thing. When I make a mess of a piece, I don’t worry because I know I can bring it back.

The secret?

I know who I am as an artist. I learned to follow what makes me feel good. Through that I found my voice and everything changed. It took me years to find my joy – I’d like to help you get there a lot faster.

FIND YOUR JOY

This 10-week course is designed to help you free your thinking, find your voice, and start painting with real joy.

We start on July 6th (welcome call on July 3rd)

You'll learn:

  • What kind of artist you want to be - and how to get there.
  • The blocks that have been holding you back from your true artist's voice.
  • How to find inspiration within (so that you don’t need to look for it on Pinterest).
  • How to find true joy in that act of creating (and how that instantly makes your work better).
  • How to use an art journal to deepen your connection to your work. 
  • How to let go of intention and paint as if it didn’t matter (because it really doesn’t!) 
  • Why you already have everything you need.
  • How to accept yourself and your art.
  • How to paint to express, rather than to impress.
  • How to paint from your soul, rather than from your mind.
  • How to use colour and contrast to bring your work alive.
  • Most of all, how to find real joy in art-making, so that you never want to stop.

Plus exclusive insider access with these bonuses

If you've wondered how I make my paintings, you're going to love the special bonuses I am offering this year. I will be sharing exactly how I work from initial concept to finished piece. You'll see how I make decisions on colour, composition, value contrast and texture and how I decide when a painting is done.

Bonus 1: Watch Me Work

When you sign up, you get immediate access to 10 videos showing how I develop an idea into a cohesive body of work. Here, I share every step from sketching to final paintings.

Bonus 2: Learn My Techniques

During the course, I will also release weekly videos of my painting process. This means exclusive access to all my techniques including layering, glazing, sanding, colour mixing and much more.

"I feel I am finally after all this time, the person I was always meant to be and I finally love myself for who I am. My whole life has changed with this course and I want to thank you all for sharing this fabulous journey with me. Louise you were born to do this, inspiring all of us with your honesty, vulnerability and encouraging us all to find joy in our lives, as well as our art, you are a talented and natural mentor,"

DISMISS MESSAGE

What You'll Get

  • New video lessons and assignments each week. 
  • Two Facebook Live Q&As each week where you can ask any questions.
  • My constant presence in the group to answer questions and give feedback.
  • Regular journal prompts to jumpstart your creative process.
  • Exclusive painting demos – I’ll film myself working and share my progress every week.

  • Access to a private members-only Facebook group for the program
  • Life time membership in a private alumni Facebook group, giving you a community of artists who can support your journey.

Who is this for?

Find Your Joy students come from a wide array of backgrounds and experience levels - from total beginners to seasoned pros. But they all share a desire to make art that comes from their soul.

This course is for you if:

  • You are a beginner with an adventurous spirit
  • You are an experienced painter who has lost her mojo 
  • You have become stuck and just don't know what to paint 
  • You have a head full of art knowledge, but want to be more intuitive 
  • You long for a community who understands what you want to do
  • You want to paint either abstracts or representational work (there are assignments for both).
  • You want to sell more art (the more honest and unique your work becomes, the more it sells.)
  • You just feel you have more to say with your art  

"I found Louiseā€™s course exactly when I needed it. As much as I wanted to make art, to paint, I found that I was stuck, and had no forward momentum. I had a hard time just getting myself in front of the easel. Being in this class worked immediately. The exercises are well thought-out, engaging and logical. It makes sense how each one will assist you in finding your voice. The community of fellow artists and their support, played a part. Last but not least, Louiseā€™s lovely personality is a significant piece of the success of this course."

What This is Not

We won’t be focusing on finished art (although you may well make LOTS of it during the program). This is not a course on how to make 4 new paintings from start to finish.

I am thinking WAY bigger than that! I want to set your creative soul free, so that you can joyfully explore yourself and your art for the rest of your life.

  • I want you to feel excited and confident about your work.
  • I want you to be able to talk easily about it to others.
  • I want you to be eager to get back to your art after time away.
  • I want you to feel happy and resilient even when a painting goes ‘wrong.’
  • I want your art to keep getting better and more fun long after this program has ended.

Frequently Asked Questions

The course lasts 10 weeks. During that time, we have two learning integration weeks, during which there are no new lessons (but I do offer optional assignments if you want them).



This allows everyone time to keep up with the assignments and get all questions answered.

All lessons and painting demos are posted in a private portal, which you will be able to access with a secure password.

We also have a private Facebook group where you can discuss assignments and share your work.

Once per week, there is a live Q&A session which you can watch via Zoom (a free app) or within the private Facebook group.

You do not need to be on Facebook to take the course but it helps. All lessons are posted on a dedicated website so you don't need Facebook to access those and the Q&A sessions are done via Zoom (a free app).

However, I do believe that community is always a key part of any learning experience and unfortunately there is no other suitable platform to host the group. This just means that, if you're not on Facebook, you miss out on meeting and sharing work with your fellow artists.

The course content will be available for one year from the start date.

The Facebook group is a great place to discuss your work with others.

However, this course is not focused on critiquing art. Instead I am interested in getting you to relax, loosen up and paint freely. I believe being able to do this is essential and must be mastered before advancing on to the technical aspects of making strong art

I suggest working primarily in acrylics because they dry so quickly and they are so flexible,  However, you could also work in mixed media, in watercolour or even in oils. The media is not as important as just doing the exercises.

Absolutely. It is cheaper to pay for the course upfront, but we do offer a  payment plan in 3 monthly installments. 

NO! The assignments and lessons will be perfect for you. I (Louise) wish I had found a course like this when I was starting out! 

Absolutely. You can ask questions under each lesson in the portal. You can also submit questions each week for the live Q&A chat.

"I wholeheartedly recommend Louiseā€™s online painting course for anyone who is either just trying to make their way as a painter or for anyone who has become stuck in their practice and needs some help in working out a way to move forward. Above all, Louiseā€™s course has been such fun and there has been such a lovely, disparate group doing the course who have been so supportive of each other and I have made some lovely new ā€˜artyā€™ friends!"
