When Your Painting Feels Off, Learn How to See What to Fix
Build your skills with guided lessons, monthly live group critiques, weekly artist hangouts, and a private on-site community led by professional artist Bill Inman.

See the problem clearly
Stop guessing at the canvas
Muddy color, a weak value pattern, an awkward edge, or a distracting shape can make a painting feel wrong even when you cannot name the cause. Growth helps you learn to see the problem, understand why it matters, and choose a practical next step.
- Learn the principles behind Bill’s choices instead of copying a finished image.
- Watch group critiques that correct color, value, composition, edges, and brushwork.
- Return to the lesson or replay you need when a painting stalls.
“I have learned to look at paintings differently now and enjoy critiquing along with you. I challenge myself to see tangents and other shapes that distract the viewer. This opportunity is just awesome. Thank you!!!!”

A useful learning path
Build a foundation, practice, then get unstuck
- Start with a course. Work through painting fundamentals, plein air lessons, and materials guidance in a clear sequence.
- Practice at the easel. Use full-length demonstrations, beginner challenges, and reference images to turn ideas into brushwork.
- Return when you need help. Use live group sessions and the replay library to solve the next painting problem in front of you.
Learn with Bill Inman
Understand the choices behind the painting
Bill is a professional landscape and floral painter and teacher. Inside the membership, he shares how color, value, composition, edges, and brushwork work together at the easel. You can follow a structured course when you want a foundation and use the live group sessions when you need help seeing what to do next.
This is not one-to-one coaching or unlimited personal access. Growth gives you recurring group access to Bill through the scheduled critiques and weekly hangouts, plus the shared learning that comes from other members’ questions and paintings.
Member experiences
What painters say about learning here
“Enrolling in the Membership has been the wisest decision I have made and learning from you and all the other member's work has been a joy. You, Kristie, and your family have really created something great for artists. Thank you.”
“Bill, the course content is a fantastic core to get started with! Your critiques, to me, are hands down worth every penny of the tuition alone. Bill is too nice a guy to self-promote, but you won't find a course of this caliber out there anywhere for this price!”
“The training materials are really good. Bill keeps information simple enough for a beginner and interesting enough for more advanced painters. I also appreciate the variety of forums provided for learning, feedback, tips, and questions. I have been a member for only a couple of weeks, but I have already picked up several tips. The Master Oil Painting community and training have rejuvenated my interest in painting.”
