Each course is a series of pre-recorded video units — watch them anytime, as often as you like. Most unit ships with reference photos I paint from and downloadable notes, so you can follow along stroke for stroke or take your own route.

Start with the materials and setup—it’s completely free. It covers what you need to buy, how to set everything up, and how to get started. After that, any introductory course will be easy for you to pick up.

Both are per-course purchases. Apprentice gets you the full course — videos, references, notes, lifetime access. Fellow adds access to my private Discord channel, where I look at your block-ins, answer colour questions and run monthly critiques.

No. My list doesn’t require many tools—and most students already own about half of them. Here is a sincere piece of advice: pair inexpensive paints with high-quality paper, and use brushes made primarily of absorbent animal hair. The results can rival those of professional-grade work.

Absolutely! Once you purchase a course, you will gain access to our exclusive Discord Community. There, you can submit your artwork and course assignments to receive personalized feedback and professional critiques directly from Crystal.
