welcome to painting from your essence!
I am so honoured to welcome you on this Soul Journey and can't wait to witness your creative metamorphosis as you Remember, Reclaim and Restore your beautiful Creative Power and step into your unique expression of freedom! I am so excited to paint and create magic with you!!!
Below is our calendar, please mark our live session dates, times are in PST. I highly recommend attending the live Creation Sessions if possible. They will also be recorded and available to you on our website if you are unable to make one. As we are painting in layers, I recommend setting aside TWO blocks of time each week to create, as your texture will need up to 24hours to dry in-between layers. Each creation session is about 60-90mins.

Creative Magic Materials List:
~ Acrylic Paint: I will be demonstrating with Liquitex Basics Acrylic, however ANY brand of acrylic paint is perfectly fine. I like using Liquitex Basics because it is inexpensive, safe to get on your hands (which we will be doing YAY!) and I can give myself permission to use a LOT of paint if I wish to. As this course is focused on cultivating YOUR soul expression, the journey begins now! Choose an acrylic paint and colours that speak to your soul.
Colour suggestions: Titanium White, Unbleached Titanium, Silver, Gold, Alizarin Crimson Hue, Primary Red, Primary Yellow, Bright Aqua Green, Hooker's Green Hue Permanent, Ultramarine Blue, Cobalt Blue, Light Blue Permanent, Violet, Dioxazine Purple, Burnt Umber, Raw Sienna, Mars Black and any other colours that call to you.
~ Gold Leaf & Metal Leaf Adhesive Size. Gold leaf comes in a package of sheets, look for the loose leaf sheets rather than attached to a backing to allow for more freedom. You can choose gold, silver or bronze leaf, whatever metallic leaf speaks to you! Gold Leaf Amazon - Adhesive Size Amazon
~ Modeling Paste Gel Medium (Liquitex or other brand) 237ml. Modeling Paste Amazon
~ 7 Canvases at least 16x20 inches, the larger the better! 24x24 or 24x30 inches or even larger. The shape and size of the canvas is completely up to you, allow your intuition to guide you. For canvas on a budget: Michaels Art supplies sells bulk canvas packs.
~Pallet knife and Paint Brushes: a 3inch pallet knife (preferably metal rather than plastic) and soft synthetic paintbrushes in a range of sizes for small details and large under painting. Student grade synthetic brushes are great and inexpensive! You can get these at most Dollar stores and bulk packages at Michales art supplies. I recommend getting soft to touch synthetic brushes over natural hair or bristle. If you are painting larger than 16x20, make sure you have at least one paintbrush that is 1.5-2 inches wide (filbert or flat style). A teeny tiny brush for intricate gold leaf, and 2-3 sizes in between both flat and round (filbert) shape. Pallet Knife set Amazon
~Pad of canvas paper or watercolour paper for Colour Magic Practice & Play
~Painting Pallet (Linzy’s favourite lifetime use pallet Amazon)
~Spray Bottle for wetting your canvas & blending
Optional materials: tracing and transfer paper for adding gold leaf sacred geometry and symbols to your paintings. Glaze medium of your choice to finish and seal your masterpieces. An easel to paint on: you can purchase an easel for under $30 from most art supply stores. You can also hang your your canvas on a wall to paint on, on the floor or table, or get creative :)
