Finally got around to doing the May painting of the Month. I've never done an ocean scape and this was a challenge. Shelby was helpful in pointing out the need for carefully observing the changes in color temperature. a good lesson! Thank you Shelby. - Janette
Hi! I’m Shelby Dillon. I’ve been painting for 15 years. I also teach new and returning artists how to paint the image in their mind. And I can show you how to do it, too.
When I first started, it was a now-familiar struggle:
I’d see a beautiful ocean scene and its energy would fade under my brush, a gorgeous bird’s feathers would fall flat on my canvas, and streaming sunlight lost its glow when I painted it.
So I know how it feels to want to paint and have no idea how to get started - or unblocked!
That’s why I created the Painting of the Month Club; So soon-to-be-artists can create beautiful work even if they’ve never picked up a brush.
I included everything I wanted when I first started: Someone to explain every single step along the way from what supplies are needed, to how to mix paint, to how to decide what to paint.
The inspiration and how-to are ready and waiting, all you have to do is join!

Yes. The Painting of the Month Club is designed for acrylic artists and based on techniques used for acrylic work. Acrylic is easily accessible for new and experienced artists and lends itself to a wide variety of uses and expressions.
