If you want to add a pop of color to a wall in your kitchen, you'll love this online painting lesson with Louise.

In this full-length 3-hour and 8- minute video lesson, she'll share a step-by-step guide to follow so that you can create these realistic-looking red apples with highlights and shadows in all the right places. It's important to create an apple with dimension. You don't want them to look flat.

You'll also learn how to paint a piece of fabric with folds and creases along with a dramatic dark background.

The learning does not stop there. Louise will also share tips and tricks for making a bowl that has dimension and curve as well.

In this video lesson you will learn how to create:

• a dramatic background

When you have finished this class you will have an incredible painting to hang on your wall, to give as a gift, or to sell.
