“Took 2 online classes here on Brave Art Academy, ‘The Joy of Drawing Patterns’ and ‘An Introduction to Art Journaling’. It is all set up in a playful way and everything is explained very clearly step by step. Luz also gives all kinds of examples of how you can apply what you have learned. I am very enthusiastic and will continue taking classes with Luz!”
Discover all the techniques in a playful way!
The class consists of two parts. In the first part you prepare yourself for ‘real’ painting in a playful way. During the Palette Knife Game you will learn the most important techniques you can use with the palette knife and when you can use them. You also make sketches for your composition and choose a colour palette.
Painting the landscape step by step
In the second part you follow my painting process, from the first layer of paint to the final details. How do you start? What do you do if you have made a mistake? What textures do you start with? What do you do if the colours don’t mix nicely? When is your canvas finished? I will teach you which three elements to focus on and I will reveal all the secrets of how to set up a landscape step by step!
Bonus lesson: Trees with the palette knife
In the bonus lesson you learn how to paint different types of trees with the palette knife. You will see that you can reproduce even the smallest details with the palette knife, although it will take some practice at first.

Each lesson we worked with a different theme and I was inspired to try something new that I could continue with at home. Luz gives a good explanation about the composition of the pages and use of colour. While working in my journal, my personal goal was ‘breaking patterns’. By painting I was able to get out of my head and process things. I was very happy with the explanation about the repairing the cover of my book. This gives me a beautiful end result and a journal to be proud of!”
