What if you loved the paintings you made? What if you made consistent time each week to create and were part of a community of artists cheering each other on?

What would you do with your new ability?
Would you sell your work?
Would you give it away to bless others?
The possibilities are endless.
You do have talent.
You just need some support!

- Have you ever wondered if you were good enough to “be an artist”?
- Do you find it difficult to make time to paint?
- Do you worry about wasting time and money on a hobby that might not get you anywhere?
- Does self doubt keep you from pursuing your creative passions?

So many creatives sometimes find themselves sitting at their easel surrounded by paints and supplies that they spent way too much money on and don’t really know how to use.
Sometimes inspiration comes, but when it’s time to actually create, it’s hard to know where to start. Maybe you jumped into a painting and after a few hours you feel like there is just no way you are going to be able to pull it together. Have you just kept painting the same thing over and over and it never seems right?
I get it.
It doesn’t need to be so hard. I want to share my practices with you that make painting more fun and more successful.

There is a system that works every time. When you learn it, you will want to paint more often because you know you will be successful.
- Show up to paint every week.
- Start with a great reference
- Create a road map sketch
- Find shadows and highlights
- Paint what you see not what you think you see
- Layer in juicy colors that you love

“What I love about Ali’s method of painting is that it is simplified. I have painted for years and I love portraits best of all, but I have a habit of being very detail oriented. I feel like in the past I’ve gotten hung up on the blending and paint getting muddy. I really love that Ali doesn’t blend and she lets her brush strokes show. I have watched her class numerous times and it has helped me tremendously!” – Cindy Evitt

Artists supporting each other with weekly guidance from Ali Kay.

Just look what some of our Fresh Paint students have created!


Don’t let doubts stop you!
I bet you are wondering if you really have the time to commit to following your artistic passions.
You do. It only takes 1-2 hours per week to start a regular painting practice that will result in enormous growth in your skills. It’s not about having the time. It’s about making the time to invest in something that will make you feel good.
Maybe you are concerned about being techy enough to navigate an online class.
Do not worry! Our demos will take place on Facebook live inside our private student group. We know Facebook is the most familiar platform for most of our students so we want to make it easy. All downloads and video replays will be located inside the course site. We have a fantastic help page that shows you how to access your class and solve any issues you might be having. You don’t need fancy computer software, just a screen with access to wifi and a printer!
Think you aren’t talented enough?
If you have a desire in your heart to paint, it’s there for a reason. You can do this because you will be set up for success! You will use all the same tools I do, and follow my process step by step. Growing your painting skills takes time, but you will see improvement! If you show up, you can’t fail!

You deserve this.
The transformation you will experience:
- You will be inspired to paint on a regular basis because you will get to see the amazing work others are creating in our private group.
- Painting can be a lonely activity, but it doesn’t have to be. You will meet artists from all over the world in our weekly live sessions!
- You will no longer feel lost in a painting, not knowing how to “fix it”. Post it in our private group and get amazing feedback and advice both from Ali and others in the Tribe! Your work might also be selected for one of our monthly critique sessions!
- By making consistent time to paint, you will feel comfortable calling yourself an artist!
- You will create paintings that you love and are proud to share!
“Ali has inspired me to become more than I thought possible! Her teachings and being a part of a group have given me confidence I lacked and encouragement to go after my dreams. I am selling works and will soon have my own space at a local art market!” – Janine Coker

Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I join anytime?
Fresh Paint has moved to a closed model meaning we will only open doors to new members twice per year. We are currently not open for enrollment. Please join our waitlist to be notified when we open back up in 2024!
- Can I share and sell the work I create in this course?
You sure can! I always appreciate when you tag me on any class work that you share! You are not allowed, however to teach the samples or techniques included in this course to your students
- Is this course for beginners?
Yes, Fresh Paint includes both beginner and advanced lessons on the same topic each month.
- What if I can’t watch the Live demo on Monday?
Not to worry! All demos will be recorded and added to the course dashboard on Tuesdays.
- What if I’m not on Facebook? Can I still join and see the demos?
Yes! While the demos are done live in the Fresh Paint Student Community group on Facebook, they are recorded and added to the course dashboard where you can watch them when you’re able.
- I’m an oil painter. Can I still join?
Yes! Of course. The layering techniques that I teach with can be translated to oils as well. The main difference is that you will need to wait for you paints to dry before moving on to the next layer. I also encourage you to give acrylics a try! You might just fall in love with them like I did. You can achieve colors just as rich as oils when you learn my process!
