Hi, I'm Kirsty Rebecca!
Why should you trust me?
When I started taking drawing and painting more seriously, I went looking for tutorials to help me learn, just like you might be doing now! But I quickly ran into a few problems.
A lot of the artists I found were using materials that aren't archival or lightfast. This was an issue because their artwork has the potential to fade, flake, discolour, or crack over time, due to the art supplies they were using.
On the other hand, there were artists using professional supplies, but they spent fifty to a hundred hours on a single piece of art, which would drive me insane!
Or there were artists who seemed to be speaking another language, one they must have picked up from their fancy art school, which made me feel anxious about creating art "the right way."
I couldn't find any artists who used archival art supplies, created the style of artwork I liked, in a time-frame that felt achievable, and also explained what they were doing in a way that was easy to understand!
So I decided to create exactly what I'd been searching for myself! This is the reason I now create drawing and painting tutorials that are easy to follow, so you can create realistic and professional artwork, even if you're just starting out!
Create with Confidence
Worried the Academy might be too difficult as a beginner?
Step 2 of your learning path, The Create With Confidence Foundations Course, is designed to take the stress out of learning. It breaks down the foundations of drawing and painting into simple, beginner-friendly steps, so you always know what to do next. You will learn how to choose and edit strong reference photos, understand values, use basic colour theory, and create accurate outlines without feeling overwhelmed.
Once you feel confident, you'll be ready to move into the full Tutorial Library where you can choose from a variety of subjects in a range of different mediums. Every project guides you through the entire process in real time, so you can see exactly which colours I use, why I choose them, and every stroke I make along the way. Nothing is hidden. It is all explained so that you can follow along with confidence!

Ever wonder why some art tutorials leave you with more questions than answers?
A lot of art instructors hold back on the little details, like what colours they're using, or not mentioning the helpful techniques they've picked up along the way.
Their reasoning is often that you should be figuring these things out for yourself, or that giving too much away makes it "too easy." Some even believe that if they help you too much, you'll never be able to create art on your own without following a tutorial. But that's not really true! Everyone learns differently, and for a lot of people, having this information along the way actually helps them learn faster.
Or maybe you just want to follow along with a tutorial on the weekends because it's fun, without having to think about what colours to use or how to do certain things, and simply create something beautiful you can hang on your wall!
In my tutorials, I don't keep any secrets. I explain everything I can throughout the whole process, including what colours I'm using and why, without skipping any important parts or speeding through the techniques that actually make the biggest difference!
So you're never left guessing, and you always know exactly what to do next!
If you'd like to branch out on your own one day and create artwork from your own reference photos, without following a tutorial, the Create with Confidence Foundations Course has you covered!
It includes lessons on selecting your own colours, how to choose and edit reference photos, basic colour theory, how to draw an accurate outline, and plenty of other tips to help your artwork look realistic!
Real Students, Real Results!
You might be surprised that most of my students had never touched pastels before creating these drawings!
And many of them had never even picked up a pencil in their lives!
With just one beginner’s pastel pencil lesson, they discovered how to turn a blank page into something beautiful.
They gained confidence, learned essential techniques, and created artwork they never imagined possible.
... and YOU can too!
