Ready to Make Some 5 Minute Art?
Take a Simpler Approach
In 5 Minute Art, you’ll leave perfectionism behind and learn to embrace the sometimes charmingly wonky results of painting something in 5 minutes or less.
I promise, it’s fun and fulfilling to let all that perfectionism go!
Simplify Your Supplies
This class will introduce you to a simple sketchbook kit, so you can grab it and start painting in seconds.
Supplies we use in the class: Caran d’Ache gouache pan set, Luminance colored pencil in Indanthrone Blue, and a Neocolor II in Prussian Blue.
You’ll also need a sketchbook or loose paper, and a small round brush. I use a Princeton #2 round brush.
*If you don’t have the Caran d’Ache gouache set, I mention alternatives in the supplies video of the class.
What’s Included:
An overview of my recommended 5 Minute Art supplies with suggestions on other options so you don’t need to buy new supplies (unless you want to)
All painting demos are presented at real time speed (no speedy bits!)
20 painting lessons in all, each one is 5 minutes or less
Learn to paint 11 flowers: grape hyacinth, crocus, tulip, hollyhock, daffodil, forget-me-not, California poppy, cosmos, echinacea, red clover and anemone

Hey there!
I’m Steph Fizer Coleman
I’ve made a lot of art in my life. A LOT. And I’ve made a lot of art over the past 16 years as a professional artist too.
Art for children’s books, greeting cards, wall art, puzzles, stickers, tea towels, stationery set, enamel pins, and well…you get it. Lots of art! For all the things!
But my most important art? My most creatively fulfilling art? It’s happening in my sketchbook. Every day.
I’ve experienced first hand how impactful a sketchbook practice is, whatever you’re a professional artist, like me, or someone who draws just for fun, also like me 🤣
The work that I do in my sketchbook informs every other aspect of my creative practice and even my art business! I learn and uncover so much during my daily sketchbook sessions, even when they don’t go “well.”
Having a daily sketchbook practice is some change-your-life type stuff. You’ll become a better artist. You’ll uncover new ways of making art, both big and small. You’ll build confidence. You’ll feel inspired more often.
