You know I love sharing what I’m into.
Learning has always been something dear to me. Even as a kid, teenager and now as an adult. In our era, it is a blessing to be able to learn from the comfort of your home so I decided to share with you the few online classes I am currently loving and why.
True Free Spirit
It’s the 3rd online class I’m taking from Mindy Lacefield. This is one is different as it’s a project oriented year long class. Meaning: each month, she shares a specific project with us, learning new techniques, working on a different surface etc. We also often have a bonus video mid-month.
Watching Mindy create is a pleasure. One of these thing I am always looking forward to. Always.
We don’t paint characters only, animals invite themselves, we play as much in our art journal than we do paintings outside.
As usual, I love the community, some of the women I met through Mindy’s classes are now friends.
It’s not too late to join ! Learn more here: True Free Spirit.
Behind The Art
Christy Tomlinson’s new class is all about what she uses in her creative process, and why, and how. She spills the beans like she never did before.
Surfaces, paints, gels and things you would not even think about but that Christy loves and uses.
She poured her heart into it, there is TONS of content. And it is not a only-for-beginner oriented workshop, even I learn new things, and can’t wait to get to it and try it for myself.
I am one of the three guest artists (along with Danielle Daniel and Junelle Jacobson), so if you’re in the workshop, you’ll see me create some art along. Lots of fun.

Mermaid Circus
This is a collaborative workshop between online class extraordinaire Jane Davenport, and the amazing Teesha Moore. They combine two worlds: the circus, and mermaids.
I have been waiting for Teesha to make her online teaching debuts for a long time, and I am very blessed to be in this class (thank you so much to my angel friend for making this happen, thank you).
It is an 8-week class, so lots of things will be learned as well. I am very excited because Mermaids are fascinating, they are creatures Koala (my 6 years old daughter) keeps drawing again and again, and it will touch creative areas I am not comfortable doing (like drawing for example).
Art journaling, journal making, story telling… so much juiciness ahead in this class !

Creative Goddess
Ahhh Leonie Dawson is a gem in this world.
If you read my blog regularly, you know that I am facing, now and then, some creative blocks. I am aware that growth always eventually comes out of them, but on the moment they’re riding along with me, I get afraid that it will last forever.
I signed up last year to Leonie’s «Goddess Circle», which gives me access to ALL her past classes and all the new ones she releases for 12 months. And to forums filled with other creative women from all over the world. It allows me to do the classes at my own pace, but also to sign up for the live-versions if I want to.
There is SO much, really.
Right now, because I really really am looking for help about how not to stay in that hole that seems deeper and longer each time I fall into it, I am taking the «Creative Goddess» class again. It contains videos, e books (yes, plural), and even meditations !
Are you currently taking classes ? which one(s) are you loving ?? Please, share away, I’d love to know
I am still taking the 21 secrets classes since the first year, but I would love to take other classes in my maternity leave with Jane Davenport, Donna Downey, Julie Fei-Fan Balzer and others!
Oh I still need to sign up for this year 21 Secrets, the teachers are amazing so I bet the classes are too.
I love Julie’s classes and especially her new cheaper ones (planning on signing up for the Deli paper one soon-ish).
I’ve never taken a class by Donna, only the Inspiration Journal one, that is now old and not that great in quality 🙁 but still very useful.
