day 1

Painting tools

Let’s begin with painting tools! Brushes for sure, but also some less conventional tools that can give you really yummy results.

day 2

Acrylics

Acrylics are a big family and so great for mixed media: gel medium is perfect for layering collage, gesso is wonderful for white-on-white effects, while inks and paints bring the rainbow to your fingertips!

day 3

The magic of inks!

Inks are flowy, vibrant, translucent, and there are so many kinds (including some from the kitchen cupboard!)

day 4

Pens, pencils, pastels etc.

Whether you want to scribble, write, add some shading or subtle color, pens, pencils, crayons and pastels are your best friends! Plus some of them react with water and other supplies for endless possibilities!

day 5

Collage & texture

I’ve saved my favorite technique for last! Collage is just pure magic and the best ally to your imagination. In minutes you can create an atmosphere, a color palette, a story… Then texture will take your art to a whole other dimension!

“What a fabulous set of free classes. I have a lot of supplies but in reality have never been comfortable using them despite many attempts to do so. Your approach has just simplified everything for me and your clear practical and professional approach has been impressive. I am now keen to have another go at mixed media.”

— Lee V.

“Seriously enlightening, motivational and inspiring! As a novice artist I found your explanations and demonstrations concise and easy to understand. I will likely refer back to these videos again and again! Thanks, Laly!”

— Jo J.

“Laly I feel so grateful! Your generosity in what you have shared through this wonderful workshop is incredible! Your years of experience make it look so easy, and although I am a novice I know that I can accomplish much more today than 5 days ago! I feel that you have given me the push to get one of my many empty sketchbooks out of the cupboard and show them some love by playing in them with these ideas.”

— Brenda U.

“Wow. This series clarified so much for me. In these short tip-filled videos you have opened a whole new layer to my practice! I cannot wait to try these new things out and see where they take me. Thank you so much for this amazing content! ”

— Cheryl M.

“Thank you much for generously sharing, Laly. You give such clear explanations and demos of the differences in paint and inks and how to use them. I now understand much better what to buy. Nice to know I don’t always need the expensive ones.”
