What people are saying

“WOW!!!I just watched your 1st class last night and I wanted to tell you that in my 3 yrs of taking art classes and several abstract workshops, you were by far the most incredible and knowledgeable teacher I have ever had!!! You are so wonderful about explaining every detail of the process and why you do things. I picked up so much just from your first 2 hr class. I am so glad I found you! ”

— Tami, Paint Abstract Art with Confidence student

Hey there! I'm Paulette, your teacher on this journey.

I'm a passionate painter with nearly 19 years of experience, with 11 of those dedicated to abstract art. In 2024, I was a Joan Mitchell Fellowship nominee. Since 2008, I have had the privilege of teaching and guiding hundreds of students worldwide, helping them unlock their creative potential and transforming their work through my classes.

Like many artists, I have encountered my fair share of self-doubt and challenges along the way—experiences that are integral to the creative journey. I want you to know that you are not alone in facing these hurdles. These moments have enriched my understanding and empathy as an teacher, and I am genuinely excited to share my knowledge and love for painting with you.

I can't wait to see you creating more confidently, with more joy, freedom and ease!
