Learn exactly how it's done from nature painter and print artist SUSAN BOURDET.

This summer is a great time to take a photo and create a wonderful painting of your favorite cat (or watering can).

ON LINE ART SHOW – Floral Paintings – Jan Kunz, Juror, a Creative Catalyst instructor, will select the top three entries and explain WHY THEY WERE CHOSEN OVER OTHERS. Along with the critique, the First Place winner will receive a Creative Catalyst VHS or DVD of their choosing. Second Place receives a $20 gift certificate and third place a $10 gift certificate.

Hi Claudine, I purchased both your DVD's, they arrived in the mail on Tuesday and I had to watch both of them right away.

By the time I got to the end of the second video my eyelids were propped open with matchsticks (nearly) at 2 am in the morning.

I just wanted to say how fresh and fun you art is, so inspiring. I also wanted to say that I had a really crummy day the day your DVD's arrived, when I got to the 'Bloopers' and especially the 'puffy clouds' I was giggling along with you. What a great tonic, thank you.

Looking forward to your new book and more of your wonderful art. Cheers Karen

The special low price for the series is a limited time offer. There will never be a better time to take advantage of it.

Without YOU there is no Creative Catalyst.
