A Little About Me

I’m a gal who quit the corporate life, took the leap, and found her color wings! I left behind a job as the director of a national magazine to become a full time artist and art teacher. Since then I've worked with Disney and painted on national TV. One morning I had an epiphany – Life is too short not to follow your bliss!

Today life is very busy in my little studio in Flower Mound, Texas, where I have the able assistance of my pugs and hubby (he loves to cook, we love to eat, it’s Kismet!). I teach in France, Italy, and across the US, and am a master signature artist and instructor for the Dallas Arboretum in oils and acrylics. I’ve been painting every day for eight years, so I’m officially at the point where intervention or medication could be required, but no one has taken my brushes yet!

Most importantly, I wake up each and every day excited. I’m an artist and a teacher. Everything I paint, all that I know, I share with my students. My joy is in helping you be the best artist you can be. Navigating this journey of color and discovery is not just a job description, it is a dream come true. What a joy, and an honor it is, to share it with you!

“You will never know how grateful I am to you Nancy, for bringing me back to painting. I feel like I have been reborn. I am thankful for all you do!”

~ Kay B

 

How much does the course cost?

The e-course is $395.

How will the course be structured?

This is a five-week online course, that you may access anytime for one year. Each week contains a full painting lesson, with multiple videos, downloadable resources, and resources. Two of the weeks include an additional full-length painting lesson. Brilliant Color Boot Camps will be right there for you for an entire year, to learn and grow at your own pace. The e-course will be hosted on a private Web site that will hold onto all the content for you.

Is Brilliant Color Bootcamp suitable for all levels?

The Brilliant Color Bootcamp online class is designed for intermediate to advanced painters. I’ll have videos and guides on how to use all the tools and supplies and all my favorite studio tips. For more advanced painters who would love to paint looser and brighter, I’ll share step by step methods and videos for how to take that leap into inspiration and new color approaches you’ve been craving. We all lead super busy lives, so I’ll share my favorite ways to reach your Happy Color Place as quickly as possible. If you’ve been stuck or in the color doldrums or just want to wake up your palette with some jaw-dropping hues, this is the class for you!

More Questions?

What supplies will I need to participate?

A link to the Painting Brilliant Colors supply list is provided by clicking here. I’m not fussy about the type of surface I paint on, I use stretched cotton canvas, linen panels, or ampersand gessoboards depending on what mood I’m in that day! The brush I use costs about $2, so keep four or five of these next to your palette. I do recommend saving your pennies on your surfaces and brushes and choosing professional quality paints.

I’m an acrylic painter just learning oils, is this for me?

In Flower Mound Studio, I work in acrylics and oils regularly. While the ecourse lessons for Painting Brilliant Colors are all in oils, I will be providing a bonus lesson in acrylics and oils in the fall class. Additionally, I provide guidance for my acrylic painters in our Facebook fan page chats with tips on how to convert acrylic color recipes to match the colors we will use in our videos, and the best approach to creating that loose, beautifully blendy oil technique with your awesomely fabulous acrylic paints.

What will we be painting?

We'll be painting, sunflowers, poppies, daisies, landscapes, and more! The rest I'm saving as a surprise for you, so you have a fun, colorful gift to unwrap and anticipate each week. I will say, you will not just be painting flowers in this course, expect some landscape exercises in brilliant color on the menu! I use the same basic palette for everything I create, whether it’s flowers, landscapes, or chickens, so you’ll find that the combinations become comfortable and familiar with each new painting lesson in the series.

Is the ecourse the same as your videos and live workshops

All the content was created especially for this course by a team of professional videographers and photographers, smart computer type people, and one super busy artist who had a lot of caffeine on hand.

Do I need high-speed internet?

Yes – it will help alleviate frustration.

Can I share?

Please be mindful that is a private course for those who have registered and paid. Please do not share the ecourse content, videos, links, worksheets, photographs, slideshows, and materials. This is not fair play and I know you will respect that. You can, however, share snippets of your work and excitement on your blog and other social network sites!

Can I sell and exhibit the work I create in this workshop?

One of my intentions in this course is to help you develop your powerful and personal connection with painting from life. Your own style will show if you work from your own flower setups and photos. I’m happy for you to show and sell original, innovative work created. If however your work is more closely similar to the original paintings in the ecourse videos, that is all good, but I would ask that you don’t put those pieces out to exhibit or sell if they are close copies of my work. I trust that your heart will tell you what is too close.

Is there a refund policy?

All sales are final and non-refundable. If you have any questions about whether this is the right fit for you, please send an email before purchasing to support@nancymedina.com

Testimonials

Nancy, I watched all the videos and printed all the downloads, made notes on legal pads and added color mixes on my index cards. WOW! Nancy Medina, this is a fabulous course and I can't even imagine what other goodies you have in store for us. I have taken two workshop classes in person with Nancy, but this is great. I can stop, take notes, rewind, look again, listen again. Love, love, love it! Sitting here in my PJs with coffee absorbing it all. The chocolate comes later! Thank you so much Nancy, and you make me smile!

Patricia S

Nancy, I just have to tell you how much your workshops have meant to me. I haven’t been painting exactly your subject matter or how you set it up but when those elements are in my paintings, like foliage, flowers, tabletops, it’s always the best part of my painting. I’ll paint as often as I can at home and when I take it into class, my teacher will tell me where I need work. The pattern I’ve noticed is that when she looks at the flowers or foliage, she’ll say, Leave that part alone - don’t touch it! When that happens, I always think to myself, Nancy taught me that. I just wanted to give you a big shout out and let you know how much you’ve helped me. Also, whenever I can, I plan to take another workshop!

Yvvone

I have just finished the 5th module and MUST make a comment. I have taken a number of painting classes (including fine arts courses in college). The more recent ones have been one-week workshops with renowned artists indoors and outdoors. All cost the same as this course AND MORE. With the exception of one other teacher (my grandma), there hasn't been a better, more concise instructor come my way. Nancy Medina is informative in a way that is easy to understand. She repeats the important stuff (cool colors retreat, warm colors advance), frequently, so that it becomes ingrained in our heads. She shows us brush-stroking-technique. She shares the alternative color mixing choices, how to photograph your work upon completion. She is GENEROUS with her knowledge. A simple thank you really isn't enough!

Debbie G

I just watched all four modules. Incredible, Nancy. I can't wait to paint. Later this afternoon, I think. My husband watched part of it, too. His comment, "she is very poetic." I thought that was sweet. He is right!

Cheri W

Nancy the e-course is awesome! You are so helpful, along with all of your staff. This has to be a dream come true for you. All your hard work has come to fruition, and we all get to enjoy the fruits of your labor! The level of professionalism in the videos, the downloads, and all the help that is given is more than I expected. Thank you so much!

Sheila O

Nancy's first e-course was amazing. I'm still working on the lessons! I learned so much, with super support. Thank you, Nancy, for offering us this new opportunity!

Sylvia H

Thrilled with my purchase of Painting Brilliant Colors!!

Vicki N

I just got back from taking three days of oil painting lessons from this fabulous lady! I learned so much in just 3 days. If you think her art is beautiful, you should meet her....she is kind, patient, funny, and most of all very knowledgeable about her art. She explains how to mix paints, how to apply them, and give your artwork a glow all its own. Her classes are organized and fun. Thank you, Nancy! I can't wait until I can take another class!

Jackie A

 

Nancy your workshop was absolutely marvelous. It was a very, very special for me. Total joy and peace! Thanks for the inspiration. I have studied all over the world and you are the best instructor I have ever had. You are something else!

Alice O

I am so pleased I had the opportunity to attend Nancy's workshop. It was one of the best workshops I ever attended. Nancy is an excellent teacher, very organized, patient and experienced. Surrounded by beautiful fresh flowers, she easily taught the workshop in oil and acrylic, I learned so much. In addition to being a fantastic artist she is truly a lovely person. I highly recommend her workshops!

Julie

Best workshop in America - thanks so much to Nancy for teaching, and for pampering us!

Libby A

I woke up this morning with this unexplained urge for a donut and to get my palette set up and see what I could paint today! I started out very intimidated joining your class, but finished by being inspired. I'm no longer focusing in how inexperienced I am or how amateur my painting looks, but just enjoying the pleasure of the experience. I'm going to try not to focus on how things are supposed to look, but rather how I see them. Going to practice, practice, practice! Thank you for all the goodies and making the workshop an unforgettable experience!

Michelle

Nancy Medina’s classes are so popular here at the Dallas Arboretum we have scheduled additional classes for her students after our regular teaching season is over. Her classes often sell out and so we have a waiting list for her, she is a wonderful teacher!

Joy Matthews, Director, Adult Education The Dallas Arboretum

Nancy, your class exceeded my expectations! You are an awesome teacher, an amazing artist, and such a sweet person! I’m so blessed to have met you!

Chris

Nancy’s workshop was the best I’ve ever attended. I learned so much just in the first day about how to properly use transparent paint versus opaques, lifting paint, paint types, focal points and framing. As an intermediate artist, I didn’t know how to make the jump from painting from a photograph or copying someone else’s work in my quest to learn. Nancy teaches that beautifully and she teaches to al levels! I’d encourage any artist who wants to learn new skills, get inspired, or just have fun to sign up for one of Nancy’s workshops. She is a treasure!

Sheryl S

For my acrylic friends, Nancy is a great introduction to oils. Her impressionistic style is a super way to break out of the realistic shell. You will learn so much from just watching her...and listening, not to mention the hands-on painting. Do it!

Marianne

Taking Nancy’s workshop was a dream come true! She is not only a very talented painter, but also an extremely good teacher. The technique she taught not only makes sense, it also allows your painting to be so vivid with bright color! I’m planning on taking another workshop, I have been practicing with the aid of her videos and can already see a great improvement.

Nina

Wow! What can I say? I had the most amazing time in Nancy’s workshop! It exceeded all of my expectations on every level and then some! I can’t wait to put into practice all the awesome techniques and tips she taught me. I hope to paint with her many more times in the future!

Sandy M

I wouldn’t take anything for the classes I took from Nancy. She is amazing. She opened up a painting ability that I had given up on. Thank you Nancy. You are truly one of a kind, that is so needed in this world of art by people that have that deep desire to create!
