An investment in YOU!
INTRODUCING: The Progress, NOT Perfection Painting Course for the Complete Beginner!
Would you love to be able to paint beautiful colourful designs and projects, just for fun and relaxation?
Folk Art Painting is a centuries-old, skill-based art form. It doesn’t rely on natural talent - just simple, repeatable, mindful brushstrokes that create calm and build confidence as you go.
We like to describe it as learning to paint in the same step-by-step way you learned to write. Logical. Learnable. With our step by step tuition that focuses on progress not perfection, you’ll be amazed at what you can create.
And it’s never too late to start.
Everything is beautifully presented, from the kit, the web site, the course materials and each module is explained in great detail so that anyone can easily attempt it and enjoy success. I'm now 76 and I only wish I’d started this journey earlier as I feel so empowered."

Because it’s a skill-based art, learning Folk Art Painting is a lot like learning to ride a bike or write the letters of the alphabet. You practice the same thing over and over. Once it clicks, your muscle memory takes over—and you just keep getting better and better.
Created for beginners, especially the ones who don't think of themselves as “artistic.”
🎁 Everything’s included: paints, brushes, workbook, even FREE shipping.
💖 It’s joyful, calming, and easier than you think.
With every brushstroke, flower, and design, you’ll experience how this style of painting naturally nurtures your creativity and creates a sense of calm.
Think you’re not artistic? I thought so too. But 3 weeks into this painting course, I was painting beautiful little works of art and even felt confident to gift these items to others! By nine weeks in, I'm gifting the course to others. I couldn't love this class any more. Bonus: I also received hours of peace and mindfulness I hadn't expected! Best money spent on myself in years!

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN
The course is divided into 12 comprehensive modules, each designed to teach you a new stroke or technique. As you work through them, you’ll build a strong foundation in Folk Art skills—one structured step at a time. Scroll left to see how other students got on with the modules.
PERSONAL TUTOR SUPPORT
The set itself looks like a very nicely presented but small painting kit - but don't let this fool you. The kit itself is just a small part of what you get. The really good stuff are the two tutors, Carol and Toni; their online tutorials and personal feedback, and the Facebook community. I feel as if I'm getting personal tuition, and I hadn't expected that
REBECCA B. UK
When you are learning something new you need to ask questions. You need feedback on your lessons to know whether you're on the right track or to get help when you're just not getting it. Without this support, you are much more likely to give up!
We’re here to guide, encourage, and support you as you learn to paint in a way that feels fun and acheivable.
CERTIFICATE OF COMPLETION
“What I love most about this course is the real feedback on submitted assignments. In the past, I’d always think, ‘I should make time for art,’ but days would turn into weeks and nothing ever got done. This course changed that. Having weekly deadlines keeps me accountable, and submitting my work each Sunday has really helped my progress. The feedback is thoughtful and personal, you can tell it’s been carefully reviewed and I genuinely look forward to my emails each week.Thank you for such a well-run course. It’s given me new inspiration, and I don’t want it to end.”

EVERYTHING INCLUDED!
This is an extraordinary course! I decided to commit to learning how to paint this year and signed up for the course. The course was so fairly priced that honestly, I didn't expect nearly as much as I've received. The kit is complete with all the materials needed for the course. And the workbook is beautiful. I was not expecting feedback from the teachers (I've never taken an online course like this) I absolutely love this course and recommend it to anyone who might be thinking about it.

BEYOND BEGINNERS
Once you’ve mastered the A-B-C's in the Beginners Course, you can move on to more advanced skills in our Academy Courses, much like progressing to ‘joined-up writing’ at school.
Just as some go on to write stories or novels while others simply use writing in everyday life, the Folk Art system we’ve designed helps you discover and nurture your creativity in an accessible and easy-to-understand way. Before long, you’ll be creating your own unique designs and colour schemes.
