"I'm so loving the process from gathering materials to finding faces to creating backgrounds and collage and mark making and finishing touches and... and... and.. I feel like a little girl playing!!  No words to how much I'm loving this! Thank you Delight Rogers for your class . I'm so inspired that I'm preparing for some large canvas muses. Not sure how they'll turn out or when, but the gathering stage is sooooo fun!!!"     ~Andrea

working in a series

I believe that working in a series is one of the best ways to find your style, improve your skills and boost your confidence:

Repeating the process, mastering it, means making it part of your signature style.

When you get stuck on one, move onto the next one, and get back in the flow!

Working on small art cards can be easy and forgiving: it’s just paper and paint!

Every time you create in a series you end up with a whole body of work!

"The suggestion of using tracing and carbon paper has thrilled and freed me.  Being able to just concentrate on the shading and then adding gentle colour with crayons made this joyous. I love the results so far and might just stop here with this lovely pair of muses."      ~Laura

build the layers

 This project is the Inspiration for my Signature Workshop Personal Portraits. It is a great introduction to the main elements that will help you discover a simple and playful portrait art style:  I will show you how to use your collage papers to create the starting point for a beautiful series of mini portraits.  See how layers of paper collage, translucent paper, and a little bit of paint come together and create a special harmony.

transfer the faces

 What if you could gently expand your comfort zone and become more confident with portraits?

In this workshop you will be guided to find faces in various places and explore simple and effective ways to do an image transfer. 

make the muses

 In this project, you will discover firsthand how bits of paper, fabric, lace and jewels can become the starting point for whimsical and magical little muses. Learn which medium to use for each material. And don't worry, you likely have the supplies you need already!

the solo muse

 Whether you want to fast track through the workshop or have an extra instructional lesson, definitely tune in to this new bonus video!

I have created a tutorial where I complete one muse from the very beginning to the very end.  You will be able to watch me bring a sweet mini portrait to life, combining vibrant colours with vintage materials. 

I look forward to meeting you, if I haven't already!

For years I told myself I couldn't draw. I painted women turned away and figures without faces, because a face felt like too much to get wrong.

One winter I started a journal just for portraits. The early ones were awkward. Eyes adjusted over and over, mouths covered with collage and painted back in. I layered right over whatever wasn't working and tried again, and somewhere along the way I stopped being afraid of them.

That's what I teach now. How to stay with a piece when it isn't working yet.

I'm a mixed media artist living in a small village in Northern Ontario, where I show and sell my work in local galleries and teach online, in person, and on Zoom. Before this I spent ten years teaching at a mental health treatment centre, using art to help young people through hard stretches. Much of what I learned there is still in how I run a workshop, along with my training in art therapy.

These little muses are a good place to begin. Small, forgiving, and nothing is wasted.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do I need to know how to draw?

No. You never draw a face in this workshop. I show you two simple ways to transfer a face onto your card, including one using tracing and carbon paper, so the face is already there when you start adding colour and layers. Your job is to respond to it, not to construct it. Students who have avoided faces for years find this is where they start.

How long do I get to keep the Art Course?

You will get lifetime access to the classroom and videos. "Lifetime" technically means for the lifetime of the program. If we were to retire a course (which so far has never happened), we would give you several months' notice so you have plenty of time to complete the lessons. You can watch the videos within the classroom as often and as many times as you wish.

When does the Class Begin?

All e-courses are self-study and self-paced. The videos are all prerecorded and ready to watch upon purchase. You can watch them whenever you want, and as many times as you wish. It is up to you to find the timing that suits you best. Make time for your creativity. It is a gift you are giving yourself!

How do I view the Content?

You can access the lessons and video from most mobile devices and computers with high speed internet. The videos will be hosted online on an easy to use platform called Simplero.

Once I sign up, when will I receive my login?

You will first receive a confirmation email as soon as you sign up. Login instructions will be sent to the email you used during registration. If it's the first time you are taking one of my classes, you will receive a random password for the classroom site. Once you are logged in, you will be able to go into your settings and change the password to your liking. If you are a returning student, the class will be automatically added to your existing member account, provided that you have used the same email address when registering.

Our Promise

We take our art wildly playfully and our students seriously. If you have a question, a worry, or something technical goes sideways, just email me at art@delightrogers.com and I'll help you sort it out. 

"I am loving my set of Mini Muses! I have called them 'Garden Goddesses!'  I love how each one represents the different ways I spend time in my garden. Although I am never quite as glam as these goddesses!   Thank you for such a fab class Delight Rogers."    ~Natalie
