This course gave me a lot of learning lessons for gouache. I am quite happy with the detailed instructions and my final piece. It was a lot of fun to do to relax at the end of a stressful day not having to think to much and just following Michele's voice.

Stunning course

Karen Kavanagh

Wow! I so enjoyed this course. The result is a painting that is proudly framed and displayed at home. I learned a huge amount about gouache. Well worth it.

FAQ

  • What other support will I get?

    In addition to email access to Michele, there is a dedicated Facebook group, just for students of Michele’s Thinkific courses, where you can compare results and get advice alongside other students. If you have any access or log in issues or trouble understanding how to navigate the site you can also find another copy of the PDF access guide pinned to the top of the Facebook group - it will make everything clear. If you don't use Facebook just email Michele, there's a form on her website.

  • How long will I have access to the course for?

    After you register for the course you have lifetime access, you can take the course at your leisure and re-visit it any time you like. Plus you will automatically have access to any additional content or upgrades that are added at a later date.

  • Will I get a ton of email spam now?

    Michele sends out an email newsletter approx once a week with new free and paid products, helpful advice and links to her latest YouTube videos. There are also pre-sale offers that only subscribers get when she launches new courses. We would love you to stay subscribed, but if you don't like the newsletter just scroll to the bottom of it and click 'unsubscribe' you will immediately be removed from the mailing list.

  • What materials will I need to buy?

    If you already have paper, paint and brushes you may not need to buy anything. Each tutorial is designed to be as flexible as possible and does not insist you have exact colors and brands. However, there's a downloadable PDF with tons of advice and links to suggested materials so you can choose what to buy if you don’t have anything. Plus there's a handy list of 'color swaps' to show you alternative colors you can use.
