$14/moSchildersbentWelcome to the Schildersbent, the 'painter's clique', or simply, The Bent. The Schildersbent was a group of artists operating in Rome in the 17th Century, who learned and supported one another, and was then banned in 1720. Now 300 years later, from the ashes the Schildersbent rises again. We will learn a common method together, a contemporary version of the Venetian method of oil painting, grow as painters and as a group. In this tier of membership you will receive access to the paint-along episodes, studio tips videos, Q&A sessions, the Schildersbent Chat, and more.
$169/moApprenticeThis tier is currently limited to 12 memberships for artists who are developing their craft by painting along with the Schildersbent episodes, as well as developing their own work. You will receive direct mentorship through the exclusive Apprenticeship chat, Live Q&A's and a 20 minute Virtual Studio visit with every 3 months of continuous membership.
