Each month, members receive new painting lessons that include supply lists and reference guides. Through step-by-step video tutorials, they learn painting techniques, applications of mediums and supplies, and how to bring their creative vision to life on canvas. Our Amazing Grace membership also features a private Facebook community for artwork critiques and additional bonus content that relates to running your art business, product reviews and studio tips. Brushes with Grace aims to create a peaceful, creative atmosphere available to artists of all levels.
Since childhood I have always wanted to create art. Seeing the smiles on my family member's faces and hearing their praise when I presented them with masterpieces created specially for them brought joy to my childhood and carried through my adult life. After completing college, it was the birth of my children that helped establish my roots to begin a thriving portrait career, creating photographic and painted artworks that now hang in 32 states and 7 foreign countries. I currently work on the same property that was once home to my grandparent's strawberry farm, and the home that was once my grandmother's is now home to Willoughby Studios and lovingly called The Sanctuary. It is my goal now to share my expertise in painting the through the Word of God with fellow Christians looking for a peaceful, creative outlet and sense of community.
