Maybe you've been feeling a little like this...


''I always wanted to try oil paint, but it just looks so complicated, I wouldn't know where to begin.''
-

''Oil paint looks really fun, but I've heard that you need to use turpentine, and there's just no way I want to work with toxic materials from home''.
-


''I would love to learn more about oil paint, but I don't think I have the talent it takes to paint realistic form and light.'' 



Now, imagine if I told you, you could feel like this...








Hi There, I'm Marie!



Classically Trained Fine Artist, Former Instructor at The Florence Academy of Art and The Founder of The Oil Painting Journey. 


I am a tea and nature-loving professional fine artist, dedicated to teach and inform about my favorite medium, oil paint! I'll help you get started, or continue to develop your oil painting skills so you can begin creating those beautiful paintings of yours today!



After painting with oils for over 15 years, I've concluded that it's the most flexible and forgiving medium you can work with as a painter.


However, it's also the one medium with the most mystery, and it has an undeserved reputation for being complicated.

When I began my oil painting journey, I had no easy access to simplified or visual information to help me understand how I could master oils.

I had to cut and paste information from a bunch of different sources and go through a lot of trial and error before I got the tools, methods, and knowledge I needed to paint with confidence and ease.


Armed with new knowledge and experience, however, I realized how easy and straight forward oil paints could be if you only knew how to go from point a to b.


That's why I believe in a clear and simplified approach to oil paints paired with a visual real-time step by step method to help students move forward with their oil painting skills, understanding, and confidence!





Ok, my friend, so you’re sitting at your computer, or maybe on your phone and you ended up on this page for a reason. 

Something tells me you have a lot of creativity in your heart and a vision of some beautiful paintings you're longing to paint! 

And deep inside, you know that IT IS possible to turn your creative dreams into reality, paint those paintings you always wanted, and feel a deep sense of fulfillment. 


So let me ask you… does that sound like something you’d want to start to take action on? Because right now you have the chance to grab the course that shows you exactly how --->





Today I’m so excited to be able to introduce you to

my BRAND NEW online course,


Painting a Lemon - A Beginners Guide to Oil Paint.


It’s a step-by-step introduction course that shows you exactly what you need to begin painting with oils from home today.

This includes materials, color mixing and my proven method for painting believable form and light, so you can begin creating the paintings you always wanted.


The perfect course if you've got little to none previous experience with oil paint!


An introduction to what you'll learn in the course ⬇️


Here’s what we’re going to cover:




LESSON 1


In this first lesson, I'll talk about how you can arrange a setup anywhere you'd like to paint using something called a black box. 

This is a great tool to create a strong sense of form and light in your paintings. I have to say, that some of my best paintings were the ones I painted from a black box.

In this lesson I'll also share the 4 things you always should have in your setup to be able to paint realistic form and light.




LESSON 2


In this lesson I will walk you through all the different materials you'll need to start painting with oils. 

We will talk about the paint, brushes and so much more!

All the materials used to make this course are considered non-toxic, which will make working from home super easy!




LESSON 3


In this lesson, I will walk you through how I mixed all the different colors for our painting.

This will make it possible for you to create your own color mixes if you would like to paint the lemon alongside me.

I will also talk about color theory and how you can mix a wide range of colors and values from just 5 colors!



LESSON 4


In this lesson, I'll show you how to begin your painting by making something called, an Underpainting.

An underpainting will work as a roadmap for your painting and this step will make your whole painting process so much more enjoyable and easy!



LESSON 5


In this lesson, we're going to apply the colors to the lemon.

This lesson is split into two parts.

In the first part, we'll apply big areas of value and focus on connect these together through the use of halftones.

Because 90 % of this lesson has been recorded in real-time, you'll get a chance to watch how the whole lemon is painted without parts of the process missing, or parts of the lesson played at a faster speed.



LESSON 6


In this lesson, I will walk you through how to close up your painting session after a long, wonderful day of painting!

I will show you how to clean your brushes and your palette and also talk about some of the precautions you should take when cleaning up oil painting materials if you've used traditional thinner and mediums. 

In this course, all of the materials used are non-toxic and safe to use at home, but knowledge is power, and it's still good to know how to treat theses options if you ever would like to try them!



Dear Marie, I’m so happy with the course.
I’ve just done the first two lessons and have already learned so much. I’ve been trying to learn on my own for years and have never been able to find the basic advice about brushes, palettes, palette knives and pigments that you provide; how to prepare the painting surface... I just have a few things to buy and then I can get started!
I can’t wait.
Thanks so much for this great course.
