What if painting could bring you home to yourself? 🌿
 

I’m thrilled to invite you to my course, Essence Over Accuracy: Expressive Wildlife Painting, an experience designed not just to improve your art, but to awaken your presence.

Together, we’ll explore how expressive art can become a practice of aliveness: seeing with your heart, moving with emotion, and connecting to what’s real and alive within you.

Through observation, gesture, color, and touch, you’ll learn to paint wildlife not as a subject to capture, but as a mirror reflecting your energy, your story, and your humanity.

If you’ve been craving a creative space that feels healing, honest, and alive, this course was made for you.

And here’s a little extra: a special bonus will be waiting for those who join the waiting list.


Let’s paint, feel, and come alive — together. 🎨

WHAT YOU WILL GET:

Hi, I’m Matt!

 

I’m a self-taught artist from Minneapolis, and my journey into art began as a way to stay alive. After years of battling addiction, my therapist suggested I try painting to help resist cravings. What started as survival soon became a way of living.

My work is raw and expressive, filled with bold brushstrokes, fingerprints, and fearless color. Each mark carries my story the struggle, the recovery, and the rediscovery of joy in sobriety. I paint not to perfect, but to be present, believing that true art is about essence over accuracy.

Today, I share this process with others, teaching how to paint with honesty, energy, and heart. My hope is that through art, you’ll find what I did: freedom, healing, and the reminder that what matters most isn’t getting it right — it’s getting it alive.

Hi, I’m Kate!

I am a full-time visual artist, author, and playwright whose work blends curiosity, storytelling, and a love for everyday beauty. As a child, I filled sketchbooks with girls in flowing dresses and dogs disguised as humans. Over the years, my paintings and designs have reached audiences worldwide, appearing in retailers such as Target, Pier One, and World Market, as well as on television and in major motion pictures including Transparent, Medium, Glee, and Twenty-One Jump Street.

For the past six years, I’ve been immersed in my daily painting practice, creating one small gouache painting every day. This discipline has sharpened my style and inspired me to share my passion for gouache through books, workshops, and online courses. I graduated from the University of Utah with a degree in Painting and Drawing, and I now live and work in Salt Lake City, Utah, where I continue to paint, teach, and daydream daily.

Hi people, I’m Peter!

Also present on socials as @pietmaen. I’ve been sketching since I could hold a pencil, and creativity has always been my playground -  from singing and acting to doodling characters everywhere. I studied math and art (yep, both!) and later earned a degree in Visual Communication in Berlin, where I learned how to mix structure with imagination.

Along the way I’ve worked with Disney, turned my drawings into collectible trading cards, and taught a German-language Skillshare course on Procreate and iPad drawing.

My art is playful, observant, and all about people. I love capturing expressions, gestures, and tiny quirks - the little things that make characters feel alive and full of emotion. If you see one of my portraits, I hope it makes you smile and imagine the story behind the face.

Right now I’m pouring all that experience into creating a brand-new online course on expressive digital character portraits.
