INTRO TO OIL PAINTING
Experience the timeless beauty of oil painting with this beginner-friendly course thoughtfully designed for those eager to explore still life, florals, and landscapes through rich color and expressive brushwork.
A TIMELESSÂ PRACTICE, MADE YOURS
There’s something magical about oil painting. The richness of color, the ease of blending, the quiet rhythm of brush against canvas.
But for many, it’s a medium that feels out of reach.
This course is here to change that. You’ll learn to set up your own creative space, understand your tools and materials, and explore the techniques that bring oil paintings to life all through thoughtfully guided lessons.
With every brushstroke, you’ll build not just skills, but confidence and clarity in your artistic voice.
It’s your time to begin.
Hi, I’m Jess Currier — and I’m so glad you’re here.
I'm a full-time painter based in Los Angeles, where I live and work in one of the world’s largest artist-in-residence communities. I’ve been dedicated to practicing oil painting for over a decade, and I developed my expressive style through years of still life, floral, landscape, and portrait paintings! You might know me for my signature figures layered with translucent floral patterns that explore themes of longing, resilience, and beauty as an act of brave rebellion.
But you might not know that I also have an MFA in studio art. I've studied painting in Florence, Italy. My work is exhibited across the U.S. and Europe and collected around the world. And I teach hundreds of students the foundations of painting through my local workshops! But at my core, I’m still just someone who fell in love with oils and never looked back.
I’m creating this course to be the kind of resource I wish I’d had at the beginning of my journey: accessible, encouraging, and rooted in experience. Whether you’re brand new to painting or just want to reignite your creative spark, I’m here to help you build your skills as an artist and find joy in the process!
