Why Join the Acrylic Diva Atelier?
First things first: Atelier is a fancy French word for “studio”—but with a twist. It means hands-on learning, mentorship, and making art in good company. Hans Hofmann-style (my hero). And that’s exactly what this is.
The Acrylic Diva Atelier is your vibrant, ever-evolving playground for fearless creating. A place for mentorship, mastery, and a little color-soaked magic.
Explore new techniques, problem solve with your peers, and stretch your style; you’ve found your people.
“I’ve spent years writing about how the atelier method fosters mastery, momentum, and meaning in your art practice. Now I want you inside that studio. Membership isn’t just about classes—it’s daily studio access, creative prompts, mentorship, and the tools to turn passion into painting practice.” - Tesia

When You Join Today, You’ll Unlock:
🎥 Two Open Studios via Zoom each month.
Two relaxed, unstructured hours to paint, play, and connect. Tesia will offer a theme and will paint and answer questions, but this is primarily open time to create alongside your fellow Makers. Think of it as a casual painting party and your weekly excuse to block off “Painting Time!” on the calendar and actually show up for it. Ask questions, share your work, and problem-solve all live with Tesia.
📺 Twice Monthly Pre-Recorded Video Workshop
Think of these as bite-sized technique boosters. Twice a month, you'll get short, high-impact demos on brushwork, layering, color mixing, and composition tricks. We’ll play with juicy pigments, bold design moves, and mixed-media magic—just enough to spark ideas and level up your painting game without overwhelming your schedule.
🎨 Twice Monthly Palette Drops
One week it’s pulled from a post-impressionist’s paintbox, the next it’s plucked from a fashion runway, a vintage candy wrapper, or a 2 a.m. idea that just wouldn’t quit. Some palettes channel the greats, others come straight from Tesia’s color-fueled daydreams. One question remains: how many shades of red hot fabulous can you make?
🖌️ Monthly Art Challenges
Every month, a new artistic dare drops. —part creative stretch, part secret sauce. It might twist tradition, remix your rhythm, or send you leaping sideways into the unknown. These challenges are designed to shake up the rules, wake up your mojo, and fire up that brilliant brain. Leave a comment, share your wild ride, and let the mess be magnificent.
👩🎨 Artist of the Month
Each month, a new creative takes the spotlight—maybe a legendary master, a hidden gem, or even one of our own from the Atelier. Classic or contemporary, they’re here to spark ideas and stir your soul. Take a peek, get inspired, and drop a comment to share what speaks to you.
🔑 The Vault
Stashed in the vault are free goodies, PDFs, book recommendations, material discussions, and anything else that doesn't fit in another space. Check the Vault frequently to see what's new.
💬 Maker's Chat
Inside the Chat Lounge, artists gather daily to connect, share, and spark ideas. Tesia’s there every day, keeping the energy high and the inspiration flowing. Ask a question, get feedback, or simply vibe with fellow creatives who get it. It’s your daily creative check-in—and one of the Atelier’s most-loved spaces.
