Spring 2026 Color Week is closed. Please join the waitlist to be notified when it opens again.

 

Are you ready ...

to stop guessing with color -
and finally paint with confidence, clarity, and intention?

In just one focused month, you’ll learn how to trust your color decisions, express what you actually see and feel, and create work that finally reflects the artist you know you are — with guided lessons, live support, and a thoughtful community to practice alongside.

What many artists miss, is that color is the foundation of painting. Plus, the principles that guide it are universal across mediums and brands (i.e. it's essentially the same for watercolor, gouache, oil, or acrylic).

Master color, master your art.

 

Do you long to paint

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book.

If you've been painting but don't see improvement, I bet you've struggled with ...

  • You hesitate every time you choose a color.
  • You mix a lot of mud
  • You’ve been painting for a while, but your colors still fall flat.
  • You own lots of paints… yet somehow feel limited.
  • You rely on tutorials because making your own color decisions feels risky.
  • You know color matters — but it feels confusing, academic, or overwhelming.
  • You’ve wondered if color is “the thing” holding you back.

  • “Why do other artists seem so confident?”
  • “Why can’t I trust myself when I paint alone?”
  • “I tried intuitive color… and it didn’t work.”
  • “I follow the tutorials, but still no one is validating my art.”

2014

I learned so much working in the news industry, but it left me depressed. anxious, and feeling lost. I was not creating from my soul.

2017

I learned how to make viral videos at BuzzFeed and the business model of being a creator, but I still wasn't creating from my soul.

2022

I went on a journey as a creator and turned this into my full time career that allows me to live my dream life and create from my soul!

About Juliene

Hi — I’m Juliene,

A watercolor artist and color educator.

For years, color was the part of painting that held me back too. I could follow tutorials, but when I painted on my own, I hesitated. Things felt harder than they should have.

Finally, after a literal lifetime of painting and years of struggling to sell my art, or create art that resonates with people, I hunkered down to learn color and that’s when everything changed.

I got my art into a gallery the very next year, and grew my IG to over 40k within 2 years helping folks understand and apply color.

I could paint faster and with more confidence. It was like the lights had finally been turned on.

I approach color with both creativity and structure, so it finally makes sense — and actually sticks.

The real problem isn’t talent - it’s a missing system

Most artists are taught what colors to use,
but never how color actually works — or how to make decisions on their own.

So painting turns into…

Followed countless tutorials step-by-step

Bought courses you
meant to take

Watched lessons… but never fully
applied them

Color Week is designed to change that because you can’t just be told “use these colors” without being told how they work!

Maybe you’ve tried a course,

but most courses fail for a simple reason

They’re:
  • Self-paced
  • Isolated
  • Easy to postpone 

So they quietly sit on the shelf while life moves on.

Color Week is the opposite of that.

You’ve tried learning color before…

And it didn’t stick

You may have even tried “painting intuitively” - trusting your instincts - only to end up frustrated, second-guessing, and stuck.

Maybe you’ve:
  • Followed countless tutorials step-by-step
  • Bought courses you meant to take
  • Watched lessons… but never fully applied them

And maybe you’ve noticed this pattern:

You understand something while watching …
 but when you sit down to paint alone, the confidence disappears.

That’s not because you’re lazy.
 And it’s not because you “lack motivation.”

It’s because passive learning doesn’t create real skill.

Tutorials teach imitation - not understanding

They train your eye — but not your judgment.

Tutorials are great for inspiration.
They are terrible for decision-making.

They tell you:

  • What color to use
  • Where to put it

But they don’t
teach you:

  • Why it works
  • How to adapt it
  • What to do when it goes wrong

So the moment you’re on your own, you’re back to guessing.

Imagine what changes when color finally makes sense

Instead of guessing,
you understand:

  • Why a color works
  • How to fix it when it doesn’t
  • How to mix intentionally -
    not desperately

Instead of
hesitation, you feel:

  • Confident starting a painting
  • Calm making color decisions
  • Excited to experiment
    without fear

Instead of relying on tutorials, you:

  • Trust yourself
  • Paint more freely
  • Feel like a real artist - not just someone following steps

This is what I call Color Freedom.

What is Color Week?

Color Week is a 5-day live experience where you’ll learn how to think about color - not just copy it.

This isn’t about memorizing color theory.
 It’s about understanding color well enough to use it confidently in your own work.

Each day builds toward one goal:

👉 moving you from confusion → clarity → confidence.

Why Color Week is different

Most color education:
  • Feels abstract
  • Stays on paper
  • Never fully connects to painting
Color Week is:
  • Applied — color theory tied directly to painting decisions
  • Structured — so concepts finally click
  • Supportive — you’re not figuring this out alone
  • Transformational — not just informational

You won’t just learn about color.
 You’ll learn how to use it.

The difference with Color Week:
the time is NOW

Color Week is:

  • Live — you show up, not “someday”
  • Interactive — you’re not learning in a vacuum
  • Guided — you have real access to a real teacher
  • Time-bound — momentum is built in

 You don’t just consume information.
You apply it while it’s fresh, with support.

This is how understanding turns into confidence.

FAQs

MYTHS You Don’t Need to Believe About Color Anymore

MYTH #1

“Color mixing is specific to brands or mediums.”

Truth: Color theory mixing is NOT specific to brands and mediums. What you'll learn during Color Week are the same principles and color system I have used to create (and sell) acrylic paintings, watercolor paintings, and murals. After Color Week, you'll be able to apply color theory and mixing to ANY type of art you encounter.

MYTH #2

"Learning color theory will slow me down."

Truth: You paint slow right now because you don't understand your colors. Understanding applied color theory speeds you up.

MYTH #3

“I'm a beginner and I need to master color theory before this will help me”

Truth: Color Week will shave off YEARS on the color struggle bus. Most painters struggle for too long because they aren't taught how to use
their colors.

MYTH #4

“I’m just not intuitive with color”

Truth: Color principles are NOT based on intuition or preference. Successful artists don't follow their intuition, they are taught the systems behind successful colors - systems YOU can apply, too.

MYTH #5

“I’ve tried learning color before and it didn’t stick”

Truth: The problem wasn’t you - it was passive learning. Watching videos or following tutorials teaches imitation, not skill. Color Week is live, applied, and guided — so understanding actually sticks.

MYTH #6

“This won’t apply to my style”

Truth: What you'll learn in Color Week will support your style, or help you find your style if you haven't found it yet. That's because you'll learn how to make your own color decisions.

MYTH #7

“I should just paint more instead”

Why this matters more than ever

We’re living in a world that moves fast, automates quickly, and rewards efficiency over presence.

Painting asks something different of us.

It slows us down.
 It requires judgment, perception, and choice.
 It demands that we see - not scroll.

Color, especially, is deeply human. It can’t be automated. It can’t be copied perfectly. It can’t be taught or chosen for you by AI. It has to be understood and practiced - by your human Self.

Color Week is an invitation to step out of the noise and reconnect with the kind of learning that actually changes how you create.

Color Week is a human, analog, creative counter-movement to a noisy, automated world.

Who Color Week is for

Color Week is for you if:

  • You paint with pigment based mediums (beginner to intermediate)
  • You’re sick of mixing mud
  • You want to understand color instead of guessing
