Build your confidence in painting.
I've taught over 200 students since 2019, and the same questions come up again and again at the beginning. So I put my answers into a free 3 hour workshop, Capturing the Landscape, where I take you from analyzing a painting all the way to a finished study.

"It just clicked into place."
In just three months under her mentorship in gouache, I learned more than I had in the previous five years of my practice.
Tiffanie is an excellent teacher and made concepts I couldn't wrap my head around just click into place.
Before, colors felt indecipherable and daunting. Now I feel comfortable using colors as a tool for storytelling.
I've been taking art classes on and off for decades. Finally, Tiffanie has filled in the gaps in my understanding.
Tiffanie, I wasn't exaggerating when I said your mentorship changed my life. Not just as an artist, but as a person as well.
Tiffanie's Essentials of Painting course is flexible, well-organized, and diversified. Rich in information and easy to pick up, so I definitely recommend it!
Tiffanie's Essentials of Painting Guided Track is the most structured, well-organized, informative class I have taken in art. I was amazed how much I progressed.
You are an incredible teacher and such a kind, gentle soul. You helped me so much, not only in my art.
You've given me a roadmap on what I need to improve on, and so much knowledge, tools and resources to get there.
Hi, I'm Tiffanie.
I'm an art director and visual development artist, and I've worked with Sony Pictures Animation, Warner Bros., Marvel Studios, Titmouse, and Cartoon Saloon. I led the visual direction and color for an animated feature film, and as the color key artist on The Mighty Nein, I guided the lighting and color choices for every episode. I was also a painter-animator on the Oscar-nominated film Loving Vincent.
When I'm not painting for studios, you'll find me outdoors with my gouache. I'm a Signature Member of PAPA (Plein Air Painters of America) and a Core Member of Arteva, and my paintings have been featured in Plein Air Magazine and Modern Impressionist Magazine.
I also love teaching. I want to help painters understand the why behind their choices, so they can paint with confidence.
