Learn. Like. Local.

The name of my business is Vicki Jean Wilson Art and I have been in business since 2015. I have painted all my life, but took an early retirement of being a preschool teacher, to do what my passion is, and that is helping others tap into their own creativity by creating online and in-person painting tutorials. 

My online tutorials are for both adults and children and they are usually seasonal and holiday related, example, Valentine's Day, Easter, Spring, Summer, Fall and Christmas. I offer several classes for free, and a few paid tutorials which range from $10.00 to $25.00 per person. My in-person paint classes are at homes, businesses, children’s birthday parties, Girl Scouts, etc. I also give classes at Olive Grace and The Farmhouse in Newburgh and Evansville. 

Costs run for these adult classes are $25.00 per person and that is included all step by step instruction and materials to complete the painting. My children’s classes vary in price depending on how many are involved and I give discounts to organizations such as Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, Churches, etc. I also offer private classes for children too. 

Parent’s love both in-person and online classes. They enjoy the creation their child makes and the pride they feel as they learn more about art and how to express themselves. I always get positive feedback from parents about the classes. My passion is teaching others and I love their smiles after they have finished a painting. Most people will send me pictures of their finished artwork and I take pride in helping them accomplish something that they think they could not have done.

Some of the comments that I have received are:

"Vicki offers such a unique, laid back style to her art. Definitely one of my favorites and is talented!” Angela E.

"I enjoy her openness to being creative and her ability to give clear suggestions during paint parties” Hannah S.

"Sweet, slow and clear, great step by step, very specific and detailed for newbies, 90 minutes of fun.” Nicole B.

I am in the process of starting a YouTube channel with tutorials both children and adults. My in-person classes begin in March and my online tutorials will be weekly in March too. People can follow me on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Pinterest…Vicki Jean Wilson Art
