CEILINGS
Once upon a time, humans looked up and discovered things. And then we became accessories to our smartphones and we started looking down.
We remember moments pre-smartphone era when we found ourselves looking up in rooms and discovering beautiful light reflections on ceilings, interesting shadows, moving shapes, like water, or sirens. And that’s not even going into chandelier territory.
We don’t do that anymore, but now that we are indoors so much, not by choice, and we have so much more time to tire our eyeballs and brains with indiscriminate scrolling of news and nonsense, we’re inviting you to pause and take a moment to look up and find your next painting subject right above our head.
Take a few pictures of a ceiling you happen to be under. Take them at different times of the day. Pick one as the subject of your painting for this series.
• Painting premise: Painting a room (a part of it).
• Props: a digital image.
• Painting surface: any size, any kind. We recommend 9x12 or under.
• Painting webinar medium: oil over cotton paper. Feel free to select your media.

FAQ:
Do I have to talk, present something, be on camera, or show what I'm doing?
A webinar is different than a video conference. You watch the presentation and instruction but you're not sharing voice or video.
What if I don't have the right materials for the session?
Here is the list of materials we use and a video on how to put them together. But you can definitely use any materials you may have at hand. We provide guidance and instruction that can be adapted to any setup you may have.
What if I can't make it at the time of the webinar?
Webinars are automatically recorded and become become available to replay. You can watch it anytime, as many times as you'd like. You can also register to view at any time thereafter.
Can I interact during the webinar?
Yes, you can do it in 2 ways: there is a chat box you can use and we have a shared photo album to share your process.
Can I interact if I don't watch the webinar live?
Yes, you still can. We have the shared folder as our point of contact after the webinar, where you can upload your work and get personalized feedback. You can also email us with any questions at any time.
What's the shared photo album for?
The shared album is our own social media space where we can upload images of our work. It's a convenient way to receive personalized feedback. It's easy to upload, share, and view.
What's the post-webinar video chat and how is it different from the webinar?
A few days after we host the webinar, we reconvene via video-conference to chat about our process, challenges, expectations vs results, and discoveries. It's an informal conversation, an add-on to the webinar, free and only available to people registered.
