Teaching Beginners is My Passion!

I know first-hand how exciting and even a little nerve wracking it can be to learn anything new for the very first time.

Well, fear not. Tole painting (also referred to as decorative painting) is a step-by-step, fail-proof process. I guide you every step of the way. You can't fail.

I teach you how to hold each different brush so that it performs the way it should. With practice it becomes easier. Believe me! I was a beginner too.

The following are basic painting supplies included with your course:

1-inch sponge brush

Learn How to Tole Paint
in Just 2 Days!!!!

2025 SCHEDULE

DATE: to be announced

TIME: 9:30 AM to 5:00 on both days

FEE: $350 per person

On both days we paint from 9:30am to 5:00pm.

There are two 15-minute breaks. One mid-morning and another mid-afternoon.

There is a 30 minute break for lunch around NOON.

You'll learn all you need to know to give you a solid foundation for future projects. Believe me, there's lots to learn. But it's a whole heap of fun!

As you begin to practice what you're learning in your tole painting lessons, you'll be encouraged to fill pages in your personal art journal (included in your course).

I think having an art journal is very important because it will serve as a reference guide when I am no longer there and you are painting by yourself. Plus, you DO have to practice, that's how you hang on to what you learned during your tole painting lessons.

Here's what's going to happen in class.

You'll learn about your new brushes and supplies. You'll learn some new terminology and a brief history of tole and decorative painting.

You'll learn the right way of holding and loading paint onto a flat brush and onto a round brush. You'll learn decorative painting by doing strokework with a round and a flat brush as well as learning to float color with a flat brush to create highlights and shadows. Plus much, much more!!
