We teach you everything we know about everything we know.
Acrylics. Technique. Party. Tutors: @degillettcox @brave__arts

We're a pretty niche kind of art school, and that

We're a pretty niche kind of art school, and that could be an obstacle..... But we've decided to view it in a decidedly different way.

By restricting our use of different products, we're forced to play around and experiment with what we DO have.

We're an acrylic-based art school, which means the ONLY thing we teach here is how to paint with acrylic paints. But that doesn't mean we only paint in one style! It means we get inventive and playful.... Constantly expanding and building on our skill sets as teachers and as student-artists!

Enjoy these softer, darker, looser works in progress from our generous students.
Elements of watercolour, transparency, and abstraction at play, all while using just one type of paint, a few different mediums, and few layering techniques.

What do you think? Want to learn how to play with paint?
Give us a call and book in for a free trial in one of our weekly classes!

OOOOOOh we've got some interesting ones for you today!!!!
WHAT is going on in the early days of these canvasses painted by our excellent students???

Some important questions to ask your creative self:
- Would you be comfortable if your canvas looked like this?
- OR would you be having a minor meltdown?
- What would your next steps be?
- Is this step worthy of celebration?

And most importantly.... Can you guess what our students are painting???
Let us know what your guess is in the comments xxxx

There are already many words in the above images so we'll let them do the talking...
BUT if you have noticed that your creative practice is dull, boring, filled with tightness, heaviness, and has a distinct lack of fun....

AND you're aware that you kind of want the opposite to all of that, then you should absolutely buy a ticket to our upcoming #30minutemasterpiece workshop with our tutor @bravearts !

No experience? No worries!

Two images for you this week, both of them in that very weird, very beginning kind of stage...

What would you think if this was your work in progress on the easel in front of you?

Would you be proud or distressed?

What would your next steps be?

What would you say to your teacher?? 🤷‍♀️👩‍🎨

Paying attention to the way we show up to the canvas, and the words our thoughts are sending our way are super important in the creative process, they're there to guide us just as much as our actual teachers!

So, tell us... Can you guess what our students are painting???

Did you know that you don't need to be a master painter in order to come to an art class with us?

That's right folks, we WANT your mistakes, we WANT your fears, we WANT your dreams....
Because we know how to meet you where you're at and turn them into something beautiful.

Here's a question for you: How do you tell when a

Here's a question for you:

How do you tell when a piece is finished?

How do you tell the difference between feeling really proud and finished.... and feeling just a little bit scared that if you keep going you'll mess it up, so you don't go any further?

How do you make decisions about background, perspective, story, and colour? What do you rely on?

Here at Arts Tree we think, after 13 years in business and decades in the art-making industry that there's a few things at play here:

- There's connection to self, to vision, to the concept of your piece.
- There's skill sets, like drawing, colour theory, and critique.
- And then there's that very elusive, yet purely magical, artistic intuition.

Mind.
Body.
Spirit.

And underneath all of that???? Faith. Trust in the process and trust that you'll know when you get there!

Did you realise how dang spiritual painting can get????
That's why we live, love and breathe this art-making, creative kind of life, because it's soooooo very rich with wisdom!

And it's why we love this little art school of ours, because we get to pass it on to everyone on the team!

What do you think about how this pile of rocks come to life across the last few weeks?
Is it done?
What would you do next, or where would have you called it finished?

What would you be most proud of if this was your painting?

Let us know in the comments, we love to hear from you!

Foundations.

They're one of the first steps when we're building a house because your foundations provide a base for EVERYTHING else to grow.

Want a 57 story building? That's cool, but you're definitely going to need to have a VERY solid foundation..

So, how high is your art practice going to grow?
How solid are your current foundations????

Our single day workshops are all about BUILDING SOLID FOUNDATIONS because we want your art practice to touch the clouds!!!

Can't draw?
Learn!
Can't fix mistakes?
Learn to critique and correct!
Struggle to get started? Learn how to peer-pressure yourself!
Have no idea how to choose colours that work?
Struggle with paintings always looking flat and boring?
Learn, learn, learn!!!!

Art-making is a SKILL and skills are learnt, practiced, and finessed.
Genius is genius. We're not geniuses.
We're regular people who decided to get a bit nerdy about foundational art-making skills and we share it with you because we can!

Buy a ticket to your creative freedom.
or not.
It's up to you, your freedom is your responsibility... But we've got the keys if it's time to fly!

OOOOOh yeah, this one is a bit weird, a bit off centre... Like most of our students to be honest!

This series is all about sharing the wild and weird adventure of creating a finished masterpiece, all painted by our delightful students and helped along by their tutors @degillettcox and @brave__arts

We ask our students to 'trust the process' but that's easier said than done! So here's our version of exposure therapy, to get YOU used to the process as well!

Tell us, can you guess what our student is painting????
