I love the gentle way you present and encourage us. I added a few of your classes on my Dashboard for the summer including How to Start and Finish Your Online Classes 🙂 Looking forward to them so much. Thank you!

Sandy you are the sweetest. I am so so glad that you are enjoying the challenge so much and getting deep into it. This is exactly my hope! I want you to learn about your paints, glazing, shapes, and find your unique voice through repetition and experimentation. I’m so happy! Cheers!

I am really enjoying this watercolour inchie challenge. For once I am free to really give it a good shot (it’s mid-year semester break!) and I’m relishing diving into the paint and inchies! I definitely have to leave the inner out in the garage! It’s freezing cold out there since it’s mid winter in Australia! I’ll post pics when I figure out how to 🤔. Just adoring the opportunity to play. So far I have 45 little inchies after just two days! Such fun 🤩. Bless you always Amy.
Sandy down under!

Dianne – This means so much to me. I am so happy that I was able to reach you. May your inner critic find her way to the couch with a cup of tea to relax while you create!

This really resonated with me this morning as my inner critic is dominating me at the moment. However you have inspired me today and so has Faith, from the inches project. Thank you Amy for your words of encouragement and inspiration.

hi Marilyn: I’m so happy that you are enjoying the challenges and slow drawing classes. There’s a lot to dig into there and you can certainly benefit from repeating and digging deeper with that. Cheers!

I live in Canada and find the dollar difference a real factor. I have to add another $10
+ to the $25US. Once our dollar values get closer I will join your monthly group.
Meanwhile, I really appreciate your free weekly gatherings.
Thanks so much

Isn’t funny the way we assign such preciousness to sketchbook pages? Why are they needing to be perfect? What are they for? I’m a big believer in redefining the space – it’s for exploration, curiosity, written questions, recipes, and lots of painty, messy, scribbly goodness. AND – I love working small for the same reason. It’s super freeing. So glad this speaks to you!

HI Diane: You can access on your android phone, tablet, or desktop. I can see your email on the backend, so I will have Monica reach out with instructions in your email. Cheers!
