Hello dear friend,

I was blown away from the outcome from “Collage, Color, Composition” class, and I just couldn’t help myself but share it with you

I loved to create this course and I think it was the most fun course for students I’ve ever made.

The best part of creating collages is that everybody can do it!

Obviously, you have to know composition rules and how to choose a beautiful palette for your work (and this is what this course is about 😉 ), but if you never created art before, you will be able to create a masterpiece with collage.

And it’s also feels great finally to put in use some magazines you just didn’t have a heart to let go, and recycling and creating art at the same time is very satisfying 🙂

The course has 21 videos and it packed with techniques, tips, and hands on!

I divided students showcase into 2 parts: ATC cards and the rest of the projects. I tried to include everyone, who gave me permission to share (thank you guys! ) and I apologize if I missed someone.

The “Collage, Color, Composition” is now available as a self study course and you get an  access to all the course material immediately (well, as soon as I see your purchase, within 24 hours or earlier).

Get $10 OFF, by using Coupon Code: welcome  at checkout.*

* limited time offer

Many of you asked, where could you find the right pictures and what exactly to look at . A FREE Video from Collage, Color, Composition will help you to find those answers.

I hope you feel inspired and already think about to go to your studio and start cutting,  recycling and creating! And making collages as gifts to your friends and family for Valentine’s 😉

Happy creating!

Love, Olga

Hello dear friend,

I was painting another night and thought I would record the process and set up my camera, which unfortunately run out of buttery in the middle. But I hope that this little video will get you inspired and get you going.

The pencil I used is a Carbon pencil. Later I added Conte and White Gesso.

I felt really good after finishing this!It took away this stress all of us have. Usually I’m not talking much about how healing art could be, but it really is!

I hope you will paint something today!

Hugs,

Olga

I’m a huge fan of Beth Cole! I was following Beth for a long time now on FB and Instagram and always hoped, that one day she will have a class. I adore the way this artist uses colors in lights and darks, and how the simple scenes from everyday life transforms into gorgeous compositions. I just couldn’t wait any longer and asked, and Beth agreed! I’m so grateful and honored, and happy to bring to you “Earth, Water, Sky”, oil painting course by amazing artist Beth Cole!

If you wanted to paint with oils, but didn’t know from what to start, what mediums to use, what does the “fat over lean” rule means and how to follow this rule- this course is for you! Beth explains everything, from start to finish, step by step.

If you already familiar with oils or prefer to work with acrylics or other media, you will love this course for it’s rich information about color mixing, composition tips and unique techniques, which could be adopted for different subjects.

The registration is now open for a discounted Early Bird price (limited time only). Course starts on October 12, 2017 with a lifetime access!*

Hello my dear art loving friend!

I didn’t realized that it has been so long since my last post. Time flies when you are having fun isn’t it? Did you notice how every year seems to be passing faster than the previous one? Could earth be spinning faster? LOL

I have exciting news – ‘Collage, Color, Composition’, a brand new course, is open for registration!  I have to admit that I’m just having too much fun with this one! All the magazines I hoarded are finally useful. Told you so hubby! Collage is just like a puzzle, you put all the pieces together and voila! – you got a fine art piece which is sooo cool!

Well, the “voila!” factor happens when we have an idea about what we are going to create, how we are going to arrange it in a successful composition, which is not too busy and not too boring,  AND after picking our harmonious palette. This is in a few words what this course is about – Composition, Color, Collage (It is actually coming in that order 🙂 )

In addition, we are going to create a Figurative Abstract painting, inspired by collage, using what we have learned about composition and color. I hope you don’t think I’m going to glue some pieces of magazine, pour some paint on it and call it an “abstract”! No, no, no, because I’m not going to do it. I actually have a pretty cool idea about it and I just can’t wait to share it with you! :).

This course includes a lot of learning material that will get you inspired to create beautiful art while having fun! AND it doesn’t require fine drawing skills – everybody can do it!

Thank you!

I can’t wait to create together!

Big hugs and much love,
