FAQ

  • I’m a beginner. Will these classes be suitable for me?

    Each chapter contains easy to follow tutorials.

  • What about supplies?

    There is a supply list included in Chapter 1 for the Song Sparrow and Clematis project. For the bonus watercolor chapters there is a generic supply list included in Bonus Chapter 2. Melissa uses mostly Daniel Smith paints but includes information about which paints would work as substitutes. The artist is always free to change the color scheme as well. If you already have supplies, just use those..

  • How long are the videos available to me?

    The videos are available to you for 365 days from your sign up date.

  • What is included in each lesson?

    Each lesson includes a reference photo for download, my demonstration painting, a list of supplies that I used and the easy to follow video lessons.

  • Is it OK to create and sell a piece based on the supplied reference photo?

    Yes. Just realise that all of Melissa’s video content and demonstration paintings are subject to copyright. Any art created based on the reference photo is fine to use for your own work.

  • What if I have a Question?

    Please send an email to: [email protected]

  • What options are available for me to share my work?

    Work can be shared in Melissa's Facebook group—Painting with Melissa. If you aren't on Facebook, you can also email a jpeg of your piece to Melissa for feedback.
