Many of my members watch the tutorials on their phones or tablets 😊
Although all of my tutorials are aimed at beginners, I suggest starting with the "Create with Confidence: Foundations of Drawing Course"!
I’ll show you all of the basic things you need to know before you get started like choosing/editing reference photos, composition, printing your reference, values, basic colour theory, and creating your initial outline!
Unfortunately, there are no subtitles available and the tutorials are only in English at this point in time.
If you are unsure whether you can follow along with the tutorials in English, you are welcome to take advantage of the 30-day money-back guarantee! You can join the KR Fine Art Academy, and if you find the tutorials too difficult to follow, let me know within 30 days and I will refund your membership for you 😊
Most of my larger projects are less than 5 hours long - so you don't have to spend days, weeks, or months on a single piece of artwork!
My tutorials share the techniques and processes I use to get my artwork to look realistic, without spending a ridiculous amount of hours on each piece 😊
If you would like to share your artwork, ask for advice/tips, or chat with the other members of the community, I have a private Facebook Group where only members of the Premium Membership inside the KR Fine Art Academy can join!

Generally, most artists who create online tutorials do not allow you to sell your work, enter any competitions, or claim it as your own in any way. You are allowed to use the tutorials as practice – and that’s all. The main reasons why people have these “rules” are because they have either used their own reference photos for their tutorials (or have paid for the reference so they have the right to use the photo – but their students don’t) and also because people generally don’t like it when other people copy their work and claim it as their own However, I am not as fussed as some other people about some of these “rules” So, to answer some of your questions; Can I share the artwork I created by following one of your tutorials online? (to Facebook/Instagram/your own website etc) I purposely use free royalty-free reference photos, so you won’t have any legal copyright issues if you upload your work online… BUT please don’t claim it as your own work. I have seen quite a lot of posts recently on social media that are almost an exact replica of my artwork (which is great – I love seeing the work you create from the tutorials) but the artist is basically claiming that they came up with the idea, techniques, colour choices, backgrounds etc. The courteous, fair, respectful, and honest thing to do is to credit the teacher when you post your artwork online if you follow a tutorial. This goes for any tutorial you follow from any artist. For example, you can simply add “tutorial by Kirsty Rebecca Fine Art” at the bottom of your post 😊
Can I sell the artwork I created by following one of your tutorials?
I don’t have any issues with you selling your work created from the tutorials – just remember to credit the teacher (myself) by adding “tutorial by Kirsty Rebecca Fine Art” to your website listing/social media post etc when you advertise it for sale
Can I enter the artwork I created by following one of your tutorials in a competition or show? (online or in-person)
No. This is actually because competitions require you to enter “original artwork”.
So understandably, if you copy one of my tutorials, you (along with many others) would have created copies of the same piece of artwork, that I originally created – therefore you would be breaking competition “rules” Hopefully, this makes things a little clearer! 😊
If you have joined the Premium Membership, you may wish to switch from monthly to annual or vise versa (this won't apply to those who have purchased a course)
Switching to Monthly Membership
To switch to the monthly membership, simply follow this link and choose the monthly membership!*
https://www.kirstyrebeccafineart.com/academy-membership-options
At checkout, make sure you login with the same email address you used to join your original membership tier level
*It is best to switch when you get close to the end of your own annual billing cycle (closer to the date you originally joined) because joining the monthly membership will automatically start a new billing cycle (and you will be charged the full monthly amount) from the date you join the new subscription.
At checkout, make sure you login with the same email address you used to join your original membership tier level.
