A gentle, step-by-step path to grow as an artist—with confidence and clarity.
"Mere words can't express how grateful I am to have joined Jed, Renae, and the AU team with the Bloom membership. I've never been happy with any florals I've attempted before, but I'm very pleased with this one, one of the mini-demos from Acrylic Foundations..." Camille G
I've gained so much confidence in just a few weeks."Â
Perfect for beginners, returning painters, and artists who want a clear next step without overwhelm.
Every Bloom lesson follows the same reassuring structure, so you’re never guessing what comes next:Â
1. Going Outside & Observing
Jed heads outdoors to explore and observe the world—showing you how to notice light, color, mood, and possibility in everyday scenes.
2. Capturing Reference Photos
You’ll see how photos and videos are taken with painting in mind—not perfection, just potential.
3. Choosing a Reference (and Why)
Jed walks through how to select a reference image and explains why it works as a painting.
4. Editing & Cropping for Composition
You’ll learn how to simplify, crop, and adjust a photo so it becomes paintable instead of overwhelming.
 5. Painting Step by Step
The painting process is slow, clear, and deliberate—focused on confidence, simplification, and finishing the painting without pressure.
The goal isn’t perfection.
The goal is understanding—and completion.
BONUS: Inside Bloom, you'll also get immediate access to Color 101 — a full course built around understanding exactly how the colors on a limited palette work together (absolutely key to creating beautiful paintings). You also get access to additional courses: Drawing 101, Acrylic 101 and a comprehensive course for total beginners.
