Albert Einstein defined insanity as "...doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." Many painters think that by painting the same thing over and over they will become better painters.

It doesn't work like that.

You get better by challenging yourself and expanding your horizons.

You get better by working with a mentor who has decades of experience, not only as a successful artist but also as a master teacher.

Instead of painting another boring mountain landscape, how about painting one of the classics of all time by one of the most famous Impressionist artists of all time?

How about painting a peaceful running stream or a quiet lakeside cove or a sunlit Tuscan scene?

When we began filming the Master Class videos almost two years ago, we knew we had something very special. We just didn’t know HOW special it really was!

What's in the course?

Each of the five paintings in the Master Class Intermediate course will take you from where you left off in the Introductory course and advance you to the next level in your art training.

Twenty Years

We've spent over twenty years developing and refining this program and testing it on thousands of students. Aspiring artists, just like you, many of whom never picked up a paintbrush in their life have learned to paint. Many have gone on to create their own career in art. Others wanted to be artists but claimed they had no talent for art. We've heard it all. "I can't even draw a straight line." "I've got no talent for art." "My art teacher in school said I should take up sports."

You Bring The Desire

We know, from working with students over the years, that if you have the desire to learn, we can teach you to paint. All you need to bring to the table is the willingness to learn. We'll take care of all the rest.

The Alexander Art Master Class, now at this intermediate level, teaches you more advanced techniques that experienced artists who have painted for years don't know. You see, we spent hundreds of hours watching Bill Alexander's videos and learning from him. We've distilled the essential elements of Bill's method of oil painting into this course. We're going to teach you techniques that many of Bill's fans don't know because they haven't studied him as we have.

Incremental and Progressive

Just like with the Introductory course, each painting builds on the prior painting. You learn more advanced techniques and concepts of the Bill Alexander Method that Bill didn't have time to show in his twenty-eight minute PBS television show. Every painting from "Tuscan Villa" to "Utopia" is a beautiful work of art you'll be proud to hang in your home or give as gifts to friends and family.

• Skip the years of frustration trying to figure out complicated brush strokes and painting techniques for yourself. Under Alexander Master Artist Tom Anderson's tutelage, you’ll begin creating paintings that others require months or even years to learn.
• Learn techniques that most teachers don't know because they haven't studied Bill like we have. Learn these powerful techniques quickly because of what you've already learned in the Introductory Course. (These stunningly simple secrets make your paintings colorful works of art that your family and friends will love.)
• Learn more advanced techniques of mixing colors painlessly, so your pictures jump off the canvas with the intensity and style reminiscent of the “Old Masters.”
• Non-toxic paints and environmentally friendly clean up (soap, water, and vegetable oil) mean you can paint anywhere in the comfort of your home without harmful chemicals or toxic fumes endangering yours or the lives of your loved ones.
• Discover how to break a painting down into its essential elements so you can create original artwork. (Original paintings are more interesting and more saleable!)
• Create personal and meaningful gifts that your friends will love and your family will treasure forever.
• Avoid the mess of painting by learning palette management techniques that will make your painting experience pleasurable and more enjoyable.
• Find out why a quality, professional grade paint will help you create paintings easier!
• Learn how to make your brushes last forever.
• Learn the advanced secrets to painting wet-on-wet that no one is teaching new students (because they don't know them).
• Make your paintings tell a story which will increase its value both to you and those to whom you give (or sell) it.
• Learn the simple but effective techniques "Old Masters" like Rembrandt and Leonardo da Vinci used to create the most enduring and beautiful artworks of all time.
• Take your artistic skills to the next level in only a couple of months (rather than years) with the secrets revealed by master artist and teacher Tom Anderson.
• Enjoy that sense of accomplishment and pride that comes from a job well done (and being complimented by your friends and family).
• You need nothing more than a broadband internet connection - we provide almost everything else you need to begin painting. (The rest you probably already have around the house or can buy at your next trip to the supermarket.)
• See the world through the eyes of an artist!

Prerequisites

Because this program builds on elements taught in our Introductory course, we will only allow automatic enrollment for students of our Introductory Master Class. (If you have purchased our Introductory Master Class, but have not completed it, you may still enroll in this program.) There is no deadline for completion of this course or any of our courses.

Others should submit a portfolio of their artwork and request admission to the Intermediate course. Contact us at support@alexanderart.com and we will send you an enrollment Questionnaire.

When you complete the five paintings in this course, you will get access to a painting we had intended to include in our advanced course. We thought we'd add it to the Intermediate course as a way to introduce you into our Master Class III course. "Walking in the Rain" is a stunning painting that perfectly caps this fantastic course.

Thank you very much for your teaching all these years – for your enthusiasm, your amazing knowledge, your kindness and your passion for painting.

In only a year under your tutelage, I've learned to appreciate art in a very different and special way. My painting skills have improved exponentially. It's rare to find an individual with your talent who is willing to share those skills with his students.
