I've got big plans for 2013! And they include TWELVE brand new online classes!
Shut the front door!!
These twelve classes are all part of the new Balzer Designs "Getting Started" series!
"Getting Started" is all about getting you started with a wide variety of mixed media techniques and supplies. I have chosen a collection of my most-used supplies and techniques to share with you. These are the tips, tricks, and materials that I use virtually every day in the studio!
Each mini class is hosted on a private password-protected blog and your classroom access never expires.
As the moniker "Getting Started" indicates, these lessons are intended to cover the basics of each topic for those with little to no experience with the topic. Lessons are always a mixture of technical information (why this glue, why the paint works like that, etc.) mixed with my own personal taste and tips on how/why I use certain products and/or techniques.
Here are the twelve topics that will be covered this year:
- Getting Started With Color Mixing
- Getting Started With the Gelli Plate
- Getting Started With Gesso
- Getting Started With Deli Paper
- Getting Started With Lettering
- Getting Started With Watercolor
- Getting Started With Resists
- Getting Started With Transfers
- Getting Started With the Design Principles
- Getting Started With Neocolor II
- Getting Started With Spray Ink
- Getting Started With Collage
You can see photos and read more about each class HERE.
Here's how it works:
- On the first of each month in 2013, one new mini class will be released.
- All lessons are delivered via password-protected video on a private password-protected blog.
- Each mini class contains 3-5 videos on the given topic. If you've taken my classes before you know that I pack each and every video with loads of information and plenty of "doing" and examples rather than just talking at you.
- Each class contains a resource guide with links for continued learning and inspiration.
- Within 48-hours of registering for class, you will receive an e-mail confirmation at the e-mail address you provided to PayPal. This will be the e-mail address that will be used for all class communication.
You can purchase individual classes for just $15!
If you were to purchase all twelve classes individually it would cost $180, however I have a little holiday deal for you: You can purchase a pass for all twelve classes for just $150 (a savings of $30 or two months free) until January 1, 2013. A fantastic deal!
January's class is called "Getting Started with Color Mixing."
This is a great foundation course for people interested in learning how to mix their own paint colors. This course covers mixing secondary and tertiary colors, creating neutrals, tinting, toning, and shading. You'll be blown away by how much you can do with just yellow, blue, red, black, and white paint.
"Getting Started with Color Mixing" is just $15:

I hope you'll join me for all the fun! I think it's going to be an awesome year!
Thanks for stopping by!

This is beyond exciting! One of my major goals for 2013 is to learn more and do more. And, I’ve never seen a Julie video that I didn’t just love. Now, what about some live classes in NYC? *wink*

Very exciting!! I’m especially excited about the Gelli Plate class! Will the individual classes only be available during the month of their release? Or, say I decide in March that I really should take the color mixing class released in January, will it be available for purchase? Thanks!

Hi Julie! I have been really looking forward to this since you first hinted you might be doing something like this in 2013. The think I like here, is I know what I am getting. Having taken your classes in the past (and having read your blog for a very long time) I know you will give of yourself everything you got — at least everything you had on the day that you filmed the video. I will be there I’m thinking for the entire book. And since I bought the Life Book class at a Charity Wings fundraiser, I am going to be very busy in 2013!

I’m signing up for that life class you’re part of AND will have to take some of these too! I just bought a book about color mixing. Wish I’d visited your blog earlier today. Maybe I’ll supplement my book with visual learning.
