What You'll Learn13 years of creating professionally & already 8 years of teaching painting
Arielle Cloutier, Instructor
Build Confidence
Several gremlins increase the level of difficulty of creating without our knowledge and discourage us from persevering when struggling (perfectionism, the need for validation, productivity mindset, etc.). I break down how to practice a new mindset that helps lower their voices and makes us focus on the lessons we learn instead of the finished product we long for. We don’t need to be confident in the result we’re going to achieve but more in our capacity to learn and to overcome the set of challenges that each project brings.
Gain Practical Tools to Keep Growing
Each lesson comes with one or several exercices to put into practice immediately the content presented. Nothing teaches you more than practicing, exploring, making mistakes and discovering your own creative solutions. Those exercices can be done many times, in many ways according to your own curiosity. They are timeless templates.
Build your Survival Painting Kit
I break down every fundamental tools and concepts needed to use any medium, create an image that reflects your authentic personality, and craft a dynamic and engaging visual experience for your audience. A well-prepared journey saves us a lot of disappointment and wasted time.
Create your own Creative Method
For creativity to flourish to its full potential, it needs a solid foundation that propels it without imprisoning it, an environment that nourishes it without stifling it, and a flexible framework that guides it without controlling it. Rather than a recipe to follow, I will build with you, through numerous exercises and exploratory activities, your own creative method, giving you the breath you need to navigate the waters, the lands, the stars, and any other dimension you wish to explore.
