Welcome, creative friend!
If you're here looking for your newest creative obsession, I'm speaking directly to YOU!
Having dedicated years to learning this art form, I can say for certain there is something so wonderfully enchanting about painting on glassware. It invites a unique sense of joy and creativity to transform ordinary objects into vibrant, personalized works of art. The smooth surface offers a satisfying canvas where colors seem to glow with light, enhancing every brushstroke with a luminous quality. Similar to when painting on ornaments, I've discovered there is a meditative rhythm in tracing delicate patterns on wine glasses, jars, or platters—each piece becoming a fusion of function and beauty.

I'm an avid learner and have been taking Cara's Skillshare classes for years. What I can say is that when she publishes something new it goes straight to the top of my list. I learn something new every time she teaches, and my work has gotten consistently better under her instruction. Her Master courses are truly wonderful works of art within themselves. The material is incredibly in-depth and I never feel as though I missed something. Cara is so warm, encouraging and generous with what she shares and I feel as though I have a trusted friend walking me through each step. I also really appreciate how quickly Cara responds when I need help or have a question. I know how busy she must be, however she never makes me feel like I am bother - even when I know I am! You're a treasure, Cara!

Having taken Cara's previous master class and loved it, I knew I would be getting the best of the best with this new course, but I am still shocked by how quickly she's turned me into a glass painter! I was a little nervous about working with a new medium and honestly had planned to just use the elements in my existing style, but now I feel ready to conquer painting on glass surfaces, too! Over the years I've had clients ask if I would create custom wedding wine glasses and I just didn't feel confident enough to say yes until now. I am so grateful for this course and for the way Cara makes what seems really intimidating feel so approachable. It's a 10/10 for me!

This course is AMAZING and for anyone who is wanting elevated results in the shortest possible amount of time. I've been using glass paints on my own for about two years and admittedly being a perfectionist type artist, I was struggling to take my work to the next level. Mainly with how to layer and arrange the elements in a pleasing way. Cara breaks down every design stroke by stroke so that I could see and understand why she was making certain choices. The e-book is amazing too and SUCH an asset. It includes everything you get in the live instruction but being a visual learner who needs time to process, I found that being able to refer to the resource throughout the course really helped me improve quicker than I had anticipated.
