Online Class: Registration now open!

Layer Love Online Workshop!

By popular demand, the workshop remains open!!

Join instructor Julie Prichard and over 220 students as we learn beautiful painting techniques you can apply to your artwork, journal, whatever!

When the original class launched back in May, 2009, I released 2 videos per week. At this time, all videos are available in the network; there is no down time and all students can learn at their own pace.

Once you register for class, you will gain access to the network where you can read all of the discussion forums and view all of the videos! Students will have full access to the Layer Love group through Spring of 2010, so there is no rush for you to watch and paint all of the lessons.

Student Testimonials:
Deborah: Julie, I joined your classes for the first time last night and I was up until after midnight soaking in as much as my brain could take until I had to go to sleep! I couldn't even sleep in this morning because I was so excited to get back online and see what comes next. I am telling all my friends about your classes! Thank you for putting this all together and sharing it with us! You are making the world a better place one artist at a time!

Janie: Julie, i am really enjoying your classes.....life got in the way and i am only on lesson3 but i had the BEST time today with all of my paints and mediums.....i am in the drying process right now!!!!! time for coffee......BIG hugs

Carolyn: Julie,
I know this has been said, but I want to say it for myself. THANK YOU! I haven't figured out how to upload my pictures, cut I'll figure that out before your next class. I want to tell you that this was a FABULOUS way to take a class. I learned so much (and more to come....I'm behind). I also can't thank you enough for leaving the videos a bit longer, so that I can make it. Deadlines are such bummers. Your style is awesome. The format, allows me to go back and here what you said and try EVERYthing. I'm a hands-on learner and when taking a class in purpose, I take notes and try to do as much as I can, but this allows me to make sure I try it all. For me it's been a huge success. I want to thank all those that did share, because I learned from the pages you shared....thank you all.

Kelly: I appreciate sooooo much that you offered your talents and knowledge to share with the world.... to give those who haven't had the courage to express their creativity the encouragement to do so.... to give those of us who feel stuck new ways to go about expressing ourselves.

You are an inspiration and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Namaste :)

Janet: Thank you, Julie, for all the time and effort you put into this class. It's been a pleasure being in your first class. I know that I'll look back on this time as a turning point in my art.

Carmen: I am behind but i am so glad you are going to let us keep watching these videos to reaffirm the lessons and techniques.
Again, THANK YOU!!!

and you bet! I am in for any of your future classes. you are a great teacher
hugs!

Rosie: OMGosh, I have enjoyed these lessons so much - thank you! And I shall be taking your next class too - you are a super-skilled teacher. Magick!

Kari: This has been such a fun class Julie and you've been a fantastic teacher. I've learned so much. I hate goodbyes but we aren't done yet - Sept will be here before we know it. :)

Dawn: This class was awesome!!! Thank you so much Julie!! I am still back on lesson 5 (short on time) and still need to share my pictures. I have watched every video and they are all so awesome!! You ROCK as a teacher!! I have learned so much. I can't wait to see what you have to offer next. YAY for Julification!!!

Karen: Julie...loved the class! I have made some beautiful journal pages and your techniques are awesome! Love, love, love the polymer medium (which I had never used) and have discovered the beauty of glazing medium. Can't wait until your journal class...

Christen: I was kind of sad today when I realized there wouldn't be a new lesson up, even though I'm still working on this one. thank you for such a great class, Julie! I definitely want to take your art journal class in the fall.

Carol-Leigh: Julie, I thoroughly enjoyed all your lessons and learned a lot. I really appreciate all the planning you had to do, all the technical challenges you probably had to hurdle, and how you put everything together. Your videos were clear and you came across very well. I was afraid there'd be a lot of idle chit-chat to wade through while getting to the heart of what you were teaching, but nope, you were clear, concise and professional, which made your videos truly worthwhile. Ick, that sounded so pompous! I didn't mean it to be. What I mean to say is thank you for creating a fun and informative set of lessons. You did great!

Some Frequently Asked Questions:
Can I watch the video at any time? Absolutely! The videos will be available on my network for you to watch whenever you want!

Woohoo! Way to go Julie!!!

[Tami B.]

Wonderful! It sounds like you had a great weekend. Love the mermaid commission. You are such a sweet mommy. ahhhh.

[Evangeline]

Awesome! I am sooooo in.

And I have supply questions already. I have most of the supplies listed, but have Golden heavy body acrylics, not the fluids. Is that going to be ok?
Also any particular brand of crackle paint that you'd recommend?

[trish]

That sounds so great Julie! I only wish I could sign up for it, but maybe the next time around;) I'm sure it'll be great-
have a great day!!
Trish

[Julie P]

Hi Everyone! I list the Ranger Crackle Paste which works just fine because it costs about $5... you can also use the Golden Crackle Paste...my jar is marked $15. You cannot speed the drying time on the Golden..so if you are patient..no problem. Both are fine...you get a lot more bang for your buck with Golden though..

Evangeline! Yes- you can use heavy body paints, but you will need to thin them out. You can do so by adding the Acrylic Glazing Liquid (Gloss) to them..no problem!~

[Janet]

Yay!!!! I'm in! I've been waiting for this day....now I have to start waiting for May 18! Is it here yet?

[Toni Brown]

Ok, so tell me you'll be doing this class again -- because I'm saving ALL FUNDS for my trip to England and must pass this go 'round.

[sabrina evans aka rina]

Hi Julie,
I just signed up. My one question is you say in the supply list Stabilo pencil in black I'm ordering some stuff off of dickblicks so would that be a black stabilo marking pencil? I saw a few different types there and just like to make sure. So looking forward to this class...THANKS

[dymphie]

As I'm on vacation the time the class is on (bad bad planning...) I'm sending my friends over to this post, may be one will take the plunge :)

[Regina Dwarkasing, St. Maarten (DWI)]

Hi Julie,

Thank you for visiting our 'Main'street on my blog today. And: your little Bubble teachter/princess, if not Bubble queenie, is so adorable. That triumphant look, priceless indeed!

[heather]

wow! what a leap into something so wonderful! best of luck with this venture!

[Gaye]

Hi Julie, Have never done an online class before and soooo want to sign up. can you tell me does it matter with the time difference (I am in Australia). Are they "live" classes or do we just download the video when we can???

Cheers,

Gaye

[Julie Prichard]

Hi Everyone! It doesn't matter what time zone you're in...Lost Luggage Layer Love is open 24/7! Videos will be posted several times every week so that you can view them at your leisure..and as many times as you want. Videos can only be viewed on the network at this time...no need to have an extra hard drive to house them on your computer!

[Sally]

I so wish I could take this class. But my schedule isn't going to allow the time for it. Tell me please that you'll be doing this again sometime.

[Tracy]

your class sounds great! definetly interested in taking your class. will check back once payday comes around. :0)

[Leidie]

I just signed up for your class, and I can hardly wait till we start. But I'd like to know, do we need Crackle Paste or Crackle Paint? Also the crayons you mentioned are they watercolor crayons? I've never heard of them before. And last, what's a Stabilo Pencil?

[Astraea]

I'm just starting to get into collage and more "artsy" art because I'm no longer satisfied with simply scrapbooking/cardmaking. Is this class suitable for beginners who haven't really gotten into acrylic painting before?

[Julie Prichard]

Hi Astraea!

I am glad you asked.. YES. I filmed nine projects so that you could watch each one and learn and develop as you go.. all projects use the same techniques, adding a little here and there as the weeks progress. I feel confident that you will be able to learn the layering techniques I use after completing the class. Also, I can help you all along the way in the network.

I do not use fancy vocabulary…or hard to understand techniques.. I made sure to explain everything so people would get it at any level.

I urge the beginners to make sure you understand the cost of the supply list though… if you do not have paint yet, it could get expensive. Just check it out first.

Thank you for emailing! Hope to see you in class.

xo Julie

[Kathy McCreedy]

Look at you, girlfriend!!! You really rock, kiddo... if I hadn't just signed up for a digital photography/photoshop class and offered to mentor in the photo lab, I'd be leaving skid marks at the door, trying to get to your class!!! What a marvelous idea, I know it will be a big hit (LoVE the font you used for the title, too!!!) xoxo, All my best!

[Leidie Jonker]

Julie. I have some Jo Sonja's Artist's Acrylic Gouche paint. Will that work???

Leidie

[Kelley]

James

[Sharon CBL]

Whooo! I'll be signing up on May 14, which is next payday...meanwhile I'll see about gathering my supplies. QUESTION: Are there alternatives to the listed materials (i.e., black pencil) in case we can't afford to buy all new? I have lots of things already in my stash.

[Rosie]

Julie, I'm in!! Yippee! So Nicholas Rowe is my DH... but it's Rosie (yes, me!!) who's taking your class! I'm so excited - now to go check out the supplies list!
Thanks for doing this - I'm really looking forward to it! Hugggggggggssssss

[inge]

Hello Julie,

I want to sign in... and I probably will cause I'm really interested in layered backgrounds to use for all kinds of stuff.

I just don't have the time to make a lot of projects for the moment: it's almost the end of the year and there is a lot of writing to do for school...
Will I be able to watch the videos in july and august ? I have vacation then, and that's the perfect moment to create.

I just give it a go and sign in... right now..

greetings
Inge from belgium

[Chris]

Where's the mole? I want to see the mole!! Do we vote on the mole? Why can't I be the mole? HUH? I wanna be the mole!!

next class, you may want to block my emails...

[Michelle]

Julie I really would like to take your class but I wonder if the videos will continue to be available after June 24th.

Thank you

[Beth Norman]

Kim H sent me over to sign up. You might remember me from the Shack (Canadian, eh).

[Sally Sal]

Hi Julie,
I'm signed up. Question, do we just go to your blog and you know who has signed up and who hasn't and we have access to your video? Or do you send us an email or how exactly do we access theses videos? Thanks.

[Julie Prichard]
