Embark on a journey of vibrant colors and quiet reflections as we invite you to join our Inspired to Paint Course!
Our course is much more than just instruction – it’s an invitation to discover the joys of creativity, to explore the beauty hidden in the simplest of objects, and to express your unique perspective through the timeless medium of oil painting. Do you see the magic in a vase of roses? The intricate design of an apple’s surface? How about the mesmerizing colors of a sunset or reflections in a body of water? Then you already have the eye of an artist. All that’s missing are the skills and knowledge we’re eager to provide.
You’ll learn from seasoned professionals, artists who have dedicated their lives to mastering the craft of oil painting. They will guide you through the intricacies of color theory, brush techniques, and lighting effects. You’ll discover how to capture not just the look of an object, but its essence, its spirit, its silent narrative. Our classes are fun and interactive, offering you a welcoming and supportive space to explore and create.
Whether you’re a beginner seeking a new hobby or an experienced artist looking to refine your techniques, our course caters to all skill levels. There’s always something new to learn in the art world, and our instructors are excited to share their wealth of knowledge with you.
Oil painting is more than just a skill. It’s a way of seeing the world. It’s a meditative practice that can bring peace, joy, and fulfillment to your everyday life. It’s a means of communication that transcends words, and a celebration of beauty in its most pure and simple forms.
So why wait? Art waits for no one. And the journey of a thousand masterpieces begins with a single brush stroke. This is your moment. Join us. Sign up and be Inspired to Paint today, and let’s paint the world in your colors!

Here’s what students are saying…
Welcome to Inspired to Paint’s website. If you’re an artist who is interested in learning how to approach still lives, portraiture or landscapes you’ve come to the right place. I am a landscape painter and wanted to expand into still lives. When I came across Elizabeth Robbins’ name and saw some of her paintings I knew I was hooked and wanted to study under her. It was through Elizabeth that I met her good friend Shanna Kunz who is an awesome landscape painter. It was my great privilege to get to know these wonderful ladies who are both internationally well known artists. The Inspired to Paint website has a wealth of information within…learn about color, color temperature, how to assemble and make your own still life set-ups, lighting, grouping items into interesting shapes, downloading a Notanizer (free) for landscapes and more tricks of the trade than I thought possible! There is also a segment for Critiques (very kind, gentle critiques), and, in my opinion, that’s the very best way to learn! Both Elizabeth and Shanna are wonderful, kind, honest people and they’re funny as well!! I hope to meet you too….because, not only do we love to paint now we’re Inspired to Paint!!

If you are looking for a wonderful opportunity to learn with from two highly professional artists.. look no further. Shanna and Liz provide an incredible journey! You learn the art of painting with ease and convenience from the very best. They make it look easy and explain in detail the whats, hows and whys.. the nuts and bolts. It is a delight to finally feel like I am getting the same quality of high education that you would receive and expect from some of the best art schools, ateliers or universities. Love these lessons and every thing they are providing and teaching. They are absolutely wonderful, plus easy to approach. With these lessons, I find my understandings of important principles increasing rapidly. As each lesson applies certain concepts, I find my actual paintings sessions getting easier and more profound. I love what is happening as I apply the new knowledge and understandings. My abilities are leaping to the next level of expertise. Kathleen
