Hey Friends,

April is here, and I have to say, there is something about this month that just feels alive. Maybe it's the light, maybe it's the energy in the air. Whatever it is, I want to bring that into the studio with us.

Because we are not slowing down. This month in the Honest Art Society, we're diving into Part 2 of How to Paint Large.

If you were with us in March, you already know what it feels like to step up to a big canvas and actually move. You've started to shake off the freeze, to trust your body a little more, to let the scale work for you instead of against you. That foundation? We're building on it now.

This month we're going deeper. We'll look at how to push a large painting further without overworking it, how to make confident decisions when you're not sure what the piece needs next, and how to bring a big work to a satisfying finish. These are the parts that don't always get talked about, and honestly, they're some of my favorite things to teach.

April feels right for this. There's a kind of confidence that comes with the season, a sense that things are opening up. I want that feeling in your work too.

Let's finish what we started. I'm so glad you're here for this one
