Painted Ladies: Art of Transformation & Transformation of Art

Self Paced Course hosted by Jules Ostara. Start Anytime!

Enjoy a mixed-media journey through the depths and possibilities of your own creativity. This is what "do it for the process" means! All levels welcome from beginners (ready to transform a blank canvas!) to those with piles of paintings in progress (ready to revive!). 

Get into the flow with fluid acrylics and shimmering pearlescent inks, bring botanical beauty inside, feel young at heart with fun whimsical doodles, apply bold colors and brave marks in abstract adventures, try stained glass style designs, invite your inner muse to dance through rhythm and compositional choices, linger in the loving layers, shape your collage stories, tend to yourself through the inevitable changes that come.

Explore the wonder, trust your magic touch, and let your heart sing.

You will have access to ALL of the lessons at once. So, you can follow along with the suggested schedule spanning 3 months or paint and play at your own pace. You can also download all content to keep for offline and lifetime access.

You will receive:

  • In-depth video instructions for each painting project (more than 25 videos edited and condensed into about 8 hours of viewing time plus bonuses)
  • Supply lists for each project (substitutions and experimentation encouraged)
  • Intimate insights from and about the creative process. This includes emotional, mental, and spiritual aspects in addition to the physical
  • Support for any questions via email and feedback in private group
  • Invites to occasional live zoom sessions for questions & feedback (open to participants in all courses hosted by Jules)
  • Additional text, references, and prompts to encourage you through the process
  • Distance Reiki for the group from special guest Kerri Aab
  • Bonus inspiration from special guest Janette Stuart

Zen Full Painting

In this course, I share how I created the “Zen Full” trio of 3 paintings inspired by the serenity of Japanese gardens and the wabi sabi idea of seeing the beauty in imperfection.
