New Online Course - Bloom, Expand Possibilities

 

Bloom, Expand Possibilities

 

Are you ready to paint together? let’s loosen up; listen to our bodies, minds and art; and reignite our love for painting.


I have a new online course blending intuitive painting with imaginative storytelling. It is packed with insight on how to move into processes I’ve developed specifically to combine representation and abstracted passages. 


Let’s look at Fox, Floral, Sky and Color with fresh eyes as we step into a full expression of what we choose to paint and what that means to us.


What Bloom includes:

  • a detailed breakdown of my signature Create-Destroy-Rebuild process

  • guidance in exploring “what-ifs” and building “must-haves”

  • TWO FULL PAINTINGS - one focused on facial expression, one with dynamic movement

  • a bonus live launch party to kick things off

  • a live Q&A session to support your learning journey

  • an optional add-on mini course to help build a personalized, powerful color palette

  • over 10 hours of downloadable instruction with lifetime access

  • a private Facebook group supplemental classroom space (which includes students and content from my prior Intuitive Painting Momma Bear course, so it’s already packed with value)

  • all of this delivered via Kara Bullock Art, with a history of bringing professional video instruction from world class artists right into your own studio


Early bird enrollment is open now; class starts June 11th (the Launch Party is June 8th via zoom). What are you waiting for?


Let’s paint together!


Thanks so much for your interest in my artwork. 

Love you, Kim

Dear Copyright Thieves

Dear Copyright Thieves,   Just because it's on the internet doesn't mean it's free for the taking. So let's just stop pretending the internet is a free-for-all.   Don't play the card that you didn't know - that's insulting. And don't also tell me that you meant to follow up and get permission but never got a chance to. That's insulting too. And by the way, don't you have a copyright protection notice on your own site?   And don't even try and point the finger at a third party who commissioned you to make a copy of my painting - again, an insult - you and I both know the difference between a reference photo and a painting.   And don't tell me that I asked for it because I share my artwork on the internet. I share my paintings and ideas and the stories behind them so as to encourage others to pursue  their own passions . I do not share so that those lacking integrity and morals can copy and market the images as their own...

Fisher Price Little People Puppy, Toy #10

"Little People Puppy (Toy #10)," 6" x 6," acrylics on masonite, starring a spunky little spaniel with jointed legs made by Fisher Price This painting is $75, with free shipping inside the US. Purchasing is as simple as  asking . I didn't play with this particular version of Little People toys, but I find them very sentimental never the less. They are well designed and charming. I tried to figure out what year Fisher Price made these particular jointed toys which I own (via ebay - I have circus characters too!), but got distracted learning about the history of Little People in general. They have seemingly been around for 50+ years! The Little People barn was a HUGE part of my childhood. The barn doors opened with a "mooooo," but in my head I heard welcoming nickers. Those horses and chickens were real. The brown and orange shag carpeting of my parent's family room became lush rolling pastures of green, and the Little People...

Golden Open Acrylics

I get all sorts of process oriented questions. Most recently I've been getting asked a lot about my paints and palette, which made me realize what a nice blog topic this would make! I use a Masterson Sta-Wet Premier palette box . This is comprised of a box (think Tupperware) with a sponge liner and a slice of palette paper that work together to keep my paints wet. This setup allows me to work with the same palette for about a full week, having the box open for multiple hours every day. You can see what the palette looks like at the beginning of a new session above - below the exact same palette after this week's work. For the last 25 years I have used Golden brand acrylics, mediums, and varnish. I love the overall quality of these paints and the fact that, when I have a question, their customer service department is made up of artists who actually use the products. Until last year, I used their Heavy Body paints exclusively. They have a buttery consistency, a little loose...
