Do you feel you’ve hit a plateau with your painting?
Do you rely too heavily on formulas or regulations in your work?
And that you’re too reliant on the same old tools and routine?
Or maybe your work feels too “chaotic” and unstructured, and you can’t seem to organize a plan of action - you simply flounder from start to end.
Or maybe you’re struggling to be more expressive, more loose, and have more gestures and movements.
“Habitual copying” is a problem… but the real problem is deeper.
The problem may be that you’re not tapping into your “Artist’s Intuition” - your innate ability to create wonderful works of art.
You see, most artists fall into the trap of focusing too much on the final outcome and not enjoying the experience of creating art.
Which is probably the cause of anxiety, perfectionism, and other issues that robs you from being truly expressive.
Highly successful artists can tap into their creative intuition and allow it to guide their decisions…
…without being held back by fears.
Having a fearless approach to painting is one of the key ingredients for attention-grabbing, gallery-worthy artwork.
To achieve that, you have to break the chains that are holding you back and figure out what you’re really missing.
And you’re about to discover how to do that.
Learning to tap into your “artist’s intuition” is by far the most important inner work you could invest your time into.
The goal is to unleash your inner artist and nurture your artist’s soul… to experience creative freedom… to experiment with different materials…
…and most importantly… to have fun!
Because when you let go and open yourself to the colors and images that want to emerge, painting becomes an expressive, intuitive and - to many artists - a healing process.
And that’s when major breakthroughs will happen.
Master artist and sought-after instructor Douglas Fryer will share his process, techniques, approaches, and more to help you become a much more intuitive painter.
You’re going to see what it takes to connect with your creative intuition and allow it to guide your decisions.
He’s going to help you “forget” the final outcome and ENJOY the painting experience.
You’re going to discover new and refreshing approaches that might just ignite the spark of creative intuition already in you!

His art made such an impact that Meyer Gallery (Santa Fe, New Mexico), Altamira Galleries (Scottsdale, Arizona and Jackson Hole, Wyoming) and Illume Gallery of Fine Art (St. George, Utah) are now proudly representing his work.
On top of that, in 2022, the Plein Air Painters of America made him an honored Signature Member.

Discover The Secrets to Fully Expressing Yourself
Habitual copying and making straightforward assumptions about painting holds you back from fully expressing yourself.
Douglas will share with you a mode of thinking that calls upon your capacity to respond and invent along the way, and ways to allow surprises to emerge in the painting.
On top of that, you’ll also discover how to prevent your work from becoming too chaotic and aimless without sacrificing your need to express fully.
He’s also going to show you how to introduce “deliberate abstraction” and simplification into your plan of action.
With those two elements in place, you’ll activate the power of suggestion, intuition, and spiritual/psychological states that give rise to powerful feelings in the viewer - a powerful effect you can’t invoke by subject matter alone.
Get The Best of Two Worlds… and Be Unique!
Inside this video, Douglas will also show you how to take advantage of both the control of the structured drawing and the informality and spontaneity of the underpainting as the groundwork for the choices you make in the next layers.
You’ll see how he starts with an abstract acrylic underpainting, then following that with a transfer drawing using a photo reference provided.
Following Douglas’s approach allows you to distill the subject to an idea, quality, or symbolic state - rather than trying to create a faithful reproduction of nature.
He’ll also share with you how to use traditional and non-traditional tools and inventive color and texture to help bring out unexpected surprises that can emerge along the way.
All these skills will only pave the way for you to be an even more unique artist!

Douglas believes that by referring back to certain key principles, you’ll find it easier to solve painting problems whenever they arise.
And the more you refer to them, the more they become second nature.
Douglas will share with you key principles to remember when showing light and form in a painting…
…and also principles to suggest movement, passage of time, or the way we perceive things.
Watching this video is like “installing” important concepts into your thinking that will only turn you into a much better painter than you are today!
