PAINT GOUACHE PORTRAITS WITH MISTY
I first discovered Misty in our FREE Artist Community on Facebook! It was shortly after Ruth's death, she shared the incredible painting! I was completely blown away and knew that she could be an asset to our teaching team if at all interested. Low and behold, not only did I discover that Misty had some amazing artistic skills, but I also learned that she was an incredible teacher! Her videos are also top notch! She agreed to teach a course for us several years ago, and has since created two more, PORTRAITS IN GOUACHE being her latest! Just like the other courses she teaches, this one does not disappoint!
