Wild Wonder is:
An online exploration into mixed media painting,
ecology and your own innate wildness
Are you wild at heart?
Do you cheer for that dandelion that pushed its way up to the cracks in the sidewalk?
Are you astonished when you gaze deeply into the face of a flower?
You’re not alone.
There’s a whole community of us out here who are wild at heart - who are artists and who restore ourselves with time in nature.
When I say wild, I mean connected.
When I say wild, I mean free.
When I say wild I mean we understand that we are a part of nature and connected to the cycles of life. We come alive when we are in a place where we feel free to explore our true nature.
This course is all about seeking those glimpses of wildness and infusing your paintings with your own wild experience - your true nature made visible.
I’ll be by your side, guiding you every step of the way.
This 5-week online workshop includes:
Beautiful, high definition video tutorials filmed by Kristen of Brave Alice Productions
