Onion Step By Step

The class is almost ready, and I’m planning to publish it on Skillshare in just a couple of days. But here’s a little sneak peek you can already watch on my YouTube channel! You’ll discover the step-by-step process of how we’ll paint the onion together. It’s surprisingly easy when you break it down into simple steps. Have a look!

PORTRAIT Tip

Always aim for soft, natural edges

Tip: The iris of the eye never has a sharp outline. After painting the iris, gently blend the edges with a slightly damp brush to dissolve some pigment, creating a smooth transition for a more lifelike appearance.

Happy painting!

15 April - World Art Day

"Where the spirit does not work with the hand, there is no art." – Leonardo da Vinci

World Art Day is celebrated on April 15 in honor of the birthday of Leonardo da Vinci (born in 1452), one of history’s most influential artists and thinkers. Da Vinci represents the spirit of creativity, innovation, and diversity in the arts, making his birthday the perfect symbol for this global celebration.

Planning A Quick Class

Painting with coffee is incredibly inspiring! ☕

I'm currently planning a new quick class created entirely with coffee—no paint involved.

This class will bring you the rich aroma of coffee and the joy of painting using familiar watercolor techniques. It’s all about creating something fast, expressive, and deeply satisfying.

Watch the egg painting here, glimmering with the natural shine of pure coffee tones.
