Now serving: Studio Notes

I have spent months in the studio searching for the perfect mark-making supplies to bring authentic texture and dimension to my acrylic abstracts. Along the way, I realized that the biggest hurdle for many artists isn't a lack of creativity—it’s the uncertainty of how different materials will react on the canvas. To help bridge that gap, I’ve put together a new video resource called Studio Notes. This collection is designed to take the mystery out of mixed media by providing a roadmap for elevating your creative marks while ensuring your work remains professional and archival.

In this 80-minute video package, I dive deep into 13 different supplies, including R&F Oil Sticks, Sennelier Soft Pastels, Neocolors, and more. These are 100% independent reviews with no sponsors or sugar-coating. You’ll see exactly how these tools perform on top of dried acrylic paint, and I share the honest pros and cons of each. We look closely at the unique challenges these materials can pose and troubleshoot them together, so you can master the chemistry before you ever touch your masterpiece.

Whether you are looking to break through a creative plateau or simply want to avoid a "mixed media mess," Studio Notes offers the practical foundation you need to start flowing with confidence. This isn't just a list of tools; it is a deep dive into the "how" and "why" behind the supplies we use every day. I’m so happy to finally share these insights with you and see how they propel your own artistic exploration. Click here to learn more.
