About the Studio

Mission

To make oil painting accessible, archival, and joyful. We remove guesswork with clear systems for color, edges, and value structure.

Method

We use layered learning: focused drills, guided studies, and capstone projects — each with studio-safe practices and feedback windows.

Values

  • Safety and sustainability in materials.
  • Clarity over mystery: demystify technique.
  • Respectful critique and growth mindset.
