My Online Course is Two Years Old!

Wow, time is flying by…

Two years ago, I set out to create an online course with the help of my wife. We had just had our newborn girl and my wife decided to leave her job to help as a SAHM for the time being. We jumped at the opportunity to work with each other on an online course all about helping others learn how to paint with gouache. You might not know this, but this was all while I was working full-time as a graphic designer. We recorded when we could, wrote the material at night, and edited on the weekends; all while managing a little one during a pandemic. Although it was really hard managing everything, we did it! All for you guys!

Filming the course

I remember always reading comments asking if I had an online course, and this is what drove me and my wife to create that course. It continues to drive me to make the next one. That year was challenging for me. My wife wasn’t working, we had a new one to take care of, inflation was on the rise, and living in San Diego wasn’t making it easy with my salary. But this course saved me. You guys saved me and my family. I can’t thank you enough for choosing me as a teacher.

Later on, after the launch, my wife found a great job and went back to work. Since we both were working remotely, we changed my studio into an office for two. I love sharing the space with my wife, but I lost a filming space. Once I gain some space to film, I plan on creating another course. All for you!

Fast forward two years later and I’d say we’ve had a major success in helping people achieve their goals of learning how to paint with gouache. To date, we’ve helped 845 Students! I never imagined that many people would want to learn from me. I’m more than honored. Thank you, ALL!
