The Color Course for Rebels
101 & 102
Learn the rules the Masters knew. Then break them like a Rebel.
JOIN NOWI know why you’re here.
You’ve finally got the “me” time you’ve been craving and even carved out some time to paint. You lose yourself in your work, completely excited and in the zone, and then…
You're stuck.
Your painting is missing something crucial, but you just don’t know what.
Listen…everyone's paintings go through the fugly stage once in awhile (yes, even if you’ve been painting for years).
We all have days when we want to rip the canvas apart (do it) or throw it out of the window (you can). You know, those days when you look at your art and think, “This is NOT it.”
What you see in your head just isn’t translating to the canvas.
You think, “I’m a hack. I’m not a real artist anyway.”
That’s not true. But you do need some help to turn that fugly painting (or that sad, blank canvas) into fine art.
That’s where the Color Course for Rebels 101 & 102 come in!
Introducing

Meet your teacher
Hi, I'm Jodie King
As a professional artist for over 20 years, instructor, speaker and fun have-er-er, I’ve taught thousands of people, from beginners to long-time artists, how to create powerful, energetic, Honest Art.
I teach the same techniques in this course as I do in workshops around the globe. I’ve watched artists light up when implementing these techniques because they’re finally making art they’re proud of.
No, I didn’t go to art school. I started painting later in life thinking I would just figure it out. And I did…the hard way. It took me years of “meh” paintings before I got to “fine art.”
And now, I’m bringing everything I know about the rules — and how to break them — to you inside the Color Course for Rebels 101.
Don’t wait like I did. You don’t have to.

Wait, I’ve heard of Color Course for Rebels before…
New and Improved Color Course for Rebels!
Since launching Color Course for Rebels in 2019, I’ve helped over 1000 artists learn the rules, how to break them, and how to paint their most honest art.
But that was almost 5 years ago — and I’ve decided to make a few changes to the course.
I want to meet you (yes, YOU!) where you’re at right now. I want to make things as simple and straightforward as possible so you know EXACTLY what to do next when you step up to that canvas.
These courses will give you everything you need to get started painting — or stop getting stuck on all your work. We’ve broken the full course down, revamped it, and made it even more actionable, so slingin’ paint is even more fun & fulfilling for YOU.
P.S. If you’re already in Color Course for Rebels, you now have access to these updated modules, videos, and resources!
S. Dale:
"In previous art classes, the “mud” that comes from mixing colors while painting was a thing to avoid. Jodie’s technique from the Color Course of mixing “mud,” aka the Mother Color, making a different (often more interesting) color to base a painting on was completely mind-blowing and works ideally."
S. Hughes:
"First of all, who wouldn’t want to take a course that is titled “Rebels”?! Jodie’s fantastic personality and “NO ones the boss of you” attitude along with this color course has given me confidence in my studio practice! Jodie’s course was a game changer for my art. It has definitely pushed my art to a more professional level! During the course, Jodie teaches a very simple way to harmonize the colors in a painting. I now have incorporated these techniques into all my paintings. I also appreciated a bonus section where Jodie demonstrates her painting process. If you are wanting to see huge shifts in your artwork, this course is a must!"
