Full video

We will be going over layering techniques to create that fun feather texture on the goose. You're welcome to customize the colors to create your own unique personality goose!

Yes! You can cancel before the next billing period to avoid recurring payment.
There are a few that are released for individual sale but most of them are only exclusive to members.
Only if you join the "Small Business Membership".
4 are released monthly which include 1 bonus members only tutorial and 3 weekly Wednesday tutorials (those are also on the free site but with ads).
Free tutorials on the main website and YouTube have ads.
Many prefer the membership format because it is more focused and without ads.
I also have bonus exclusive tutorials that you only find within the membership and cannot find on YouTube or the free website.
Nope! As a member, you get your own login credentials and a different viewing experience on a separate website.
You can watch videos, download PDFs and read the instructions without ads. Many enjoy this user friendly experience because it is more focused!
Note: membership doesn't turn ads off on YouTube or the main website.
Yes! Almost all tutorials (unless it really is not necessary) have traceables! In addition to the tracers, you can request resizes to the canvas size you are working on. I also try my best to show you how to draw instead of using the traceables so (most of the time) they are not required. There are some tutorials where I use the traceable instead of drawing.
Not necessarily. I have tutorials with and without tracers. If a tutorial does use a tracer, you are welcome to hand draw the image. It comes down to preference!
No Facebook is not required.
I like to hear requests but I can't guarantee if and when the request can be made.
You can join the "Just Bonus Tutorials Membership" which is $10 monthly and you gain instant access to that entire gallery (including that one painting you want to do).
My name is Tracie Kiernan founder, artist and creator of Step By Step Painting! I created my online painting website in 2017 and have been designing painting tutorials every week since then! I absolutely LOVE sharing my passion for art and teaching thousands of beginner artists all over the world!
I reside in Arizona, am a mom to three boys and four fur babies! I have a background in Elementary Art Education. I graduated Arizona State University with a fine arts degree and taught elementary school before creating my online painting website.
It is an ultimate joy to teach beginners how to paint and I believe everyone is an artist and can learn!
Thanks for joining me on this artistic journey!
