Hi, I’m Tracie Kiernan! I’ve been creating online acrylic painting tutorials since 2017. What began as a popular Pinterest-driven website has grown into a collection of resources for artists of all ages and skill levels, including hundreds of free painting lessons, a digital download shop, a YouTube channel, and a membership filled with exclusive tutorials and in-depth painting content.
I hold a degree in Visual Arts and Elementary Art Education and spent about seven years teaching art to students in kindergarten through eighth grade before bringing my teaching entirely online.
Creating beginner-friendly painting tutorials is truly my passion! I love making acrylic painting approachable, enjoyable, and rewarding for artists of all ages around the world. Whether you’re picking up a paintbrush for the very first time or looking for your next creative project, I’m so happy you’re here!
I offer a variety of ways to enjoy my beginner-friendly acrylic painting tutorials! You can follow along with my free lessons, purchase individual tutorials as downloadable lessons with bonus tracers, or join my membership for access to exclusive bonus paintings and more in-depth tutorials. You’ll also find plenty of free painting videos on my YouTube channel, so there’s something for every artist and every budget!
Painting Lessons Include:
✅ Written instructions with pictures
✅ Materials list
✅ Video of Tracie teaching the painting
✅ Traceables (if applicable)
Here are some popular categories to choose from:
I offer two different ways you can license my paintings to use for your for-profit paint party business! If you are a non-profit such as a library or art teacher, you are welcome to use the tutorials with credit (such as sharing the website or citing my name as the original artist).
