Plan Paintings with Confidence Using Thumbnails

In this 30-minute class, you’ll learn my process for planning paintings using thumbnails and color studies. I’ll walk you through how I create rough sketches in my sketchbook to explore composition and design, then paint mini versions to work out my color palette. You’ll gain insight into my decision-making process and discover how effective planning builds confidence when you sit down to paint your final piece. This class is perfect for anyone looking to approach their paintings with intention and clarity.
