Hello Creative Friends, welcome to my online studio! I'm Stacy Spangler and I'm so glad we have found each other!  I believe with all my heart that we are all created to create, and it's my joy to help others uncover their own creative voice and embrace the beautiful, worthwhile pursuit of making art.

I can remember all too well how I felt as a beginner painter; I was unsure of my drawing skills, became frustrated when my paintings didn't come out as I imagined, and constantly doubted myself. Painting became more of a frustrating process than a joyful experience. But once I learned a few key practices, and started to embrace my own style, art became my passion that I wanted to share with the world. I now love sharing the things I've learned with others so they can experience that same joy.

As a self-taught mixed media artist, I love bringing happy and fun into the world by creating colorful, textured art with lots of personality. I hope you will find courses here to help you learn, grow and discover your own artistic style!

Please subscribe to my Behind the Brush newsletter below so we can share this creative journey. Once a month you'll get a peek into my studio and I'll share best practices and other creative content. Plus you'll always be the first to know about courses, workshops and in person events!
