I was going to make this a huge weekend with TWO paintings available... but after painting the koala, I realise that this would have been a bit too overwhelming for my workshops. I always try to make my workshops accessible for any level of skills, so you come away with a painting you're proud of.

But that doesn't mean I wasted my time painting this koala, I can still use it to help you learn my secrets to layering realistic fur.

See you next week for more info about possible ways to make money from your art, or making a living as an artist.

And don't forget to sign up for the free workshop!
