Hello, Love!

I absolutely love the desert with its big sky, vast landscape, and beautiful rock formations. There's nothing like a sunset to bring out the warm colors over the mesas and to bring out my inner wanderlust.

My name is Jennifer Laurel Keller. I’m an artist and instructor but what I really do is help people gain creative confidence. I love painting landscapes. The more experience we have with different types of scenes, the more we understand them and can adapt them to our future paintings.

In this class, Desert Vista, we’re going to paint this beautiful location in acrylic paint! You’ll learn how to create a warm easy sunset, the distant mesas, and the impressive textures and forms in the rocks.

In the lessons, we’ll cover materials, mixing, brushwork, form, contour, contrast, texture, loosening up, layering, and creating details. Every move I make is explained in the class and you can follow along at your own pace.

This class is right for you if you want to experience painting more types of landscapes and take your rock formations to the next level. I’ve had beginner and intermediate artists do really well in my classes. The key is to have an open mind and understand that patience and practice make progress. Even as a teacher, I learn new things every time I paint. It’s all about exploring and having fun.

Once you practice this, you’ll be able to make these techniques your own and bring them over to your future creations with more confidence, which means more fun! So, are you ready to rock? Let’s go!
