★ ★ ★ ★ ★ "The course has been a revelation to me. It has given my artwork a new lease on lifie.  The course was well supported but there was a point in the learning when I was ready to give up.  I persevered though and finished my painting which I love. It was well worth the cost to me. And the mentors, who are my heroes, always helpful and giving positive feedback."  - Annie Turner
Your art should reflect you, the message you have to share and be fulfilling in the process! This is the life I'm living and I want to help you get there too! A strong foundation in bold color + skills in portraiture will give you the courage you need as a unique artist. Move from recreating what you see to expressing what you feel. 

There's a Simple Secret to Portrait Success

There's a simple way to successfully draw a face eveytime. 
And there's a simple technique for bold abstract color. 
Here's the thing:  Drawing a beautiful face and learning color isn't an artform - it's a science that everyone can learn. 
The artform is in the bold expression! 

This class teaches the science behind the bold color magic so you can disscover your own unique expression.

What's The Main Difference Between An Artist Who Can Paint Masterpieces...

And the beginner whose work
looks flat, cartoonish, and meaningless?
You might think it depends on:
→ How many years you’ve been painting
→ How much talent you have
→ Or if you've attended a prestigious art school 

But what actually matters, is learning how to…

...troubleshoot your art - to 'fix' it - so that It feels balanced, refined and reflects your creative vision.

After working with over 4000 students in my online art classes, I can say that learning to troubleshoot is the key difference between the beginner and the seasoned artist.

Every artist makes mistakes, the “pros” just know how to fix them

Sadly, all too often, I see artists give up on their work once they make a mistake...

They get frustrated and defeated when they look at their finished work and think:

"I know something is wrong, but I don’t know how to fix it!


Trust me, we’ve all been there! 
What I’ve discovered after analyzing hundreds of paintings is that there are fundamental processes that every artist can learn if they want to create better art.

Can you tell what's different between these two pieces? 

This is Reginie's before and after self portraits. 
(Bold Color Bootcamp Graduate)

Can you tell why the “Before” looks so flat compared to her second portrait?
The biggest mistakes artists make is lack of expression and form. And as you can see from her final portrait, once Reginie learned how to use bold color with a full range of values the portrait really came to life!

What about this before and after? 

Check out this amazing before and after using the same color palette by Luzdy Rivera. 
(Bold Color Bootcamp Graduate and Now Mentor)

Even though Luzdy was already experimenting with vibrant colors can you see the difference an understanding in depth, form and detail can make?

It Really is That Simple! 

No matter where you are today, when you go through the Bold Color Masterclass you will be well on your way to a great understanding of how to express on canvas your own beautiful, unique vision.

  Here's what I've seen to be the key game changer, time and again, for why some artists keep making better art
and it's not talent!

 

It's Mentorship.  
When an artist is stuck, a trained Mentor - who knows their style and voice - will move them towards the goal post like no other tool can. 
When you join Bold Color Bootcamp via a Membership Plan you gain access to invaluable Coachin - it's an simple move to enhance your skills.  Get Started

HEY, I'M CHARLA MAARSCHALK 

Artist, Educator and Director

I’m a bold color artist who believes that all artists carry power to impact and change the world through their art.
I’ve been a professional, self-representing artist for over a decade. I’m based in the beautiful Okanagan Valley of British Columbia, Canada with my roots still firmly planted on the rocky east coast of Newfoundland.
My art practice is focused on large scale gestural faces that explore the layers of human identity.
I've taught art almost as long as I've practiced it. You can see some of my work in my online portfolio at www.charla.ca

"I love everything about it. Bold school has really helped me to loosen up and has helped to take my art to a level That I have always wanted to achieve. Charla really hits home with the value instruction. It’s like a lightbulb went off after I took the class. Thank you so much to everyone at bold school. Look forward to more classes." - Susie Krask Poff
"Charla's art is what brought me to the school and, after seeing how much she puts into it, gave me a whole new appreciation! So much I did not know about color theory is now making sense to me. I could paint before Bold Color Bootcamp but feel like I have been given the keys to originality! I am ready to paint paint paint! I will wear out some brushes until I get how to use it all! The mentors are rockin' it! So Good!" - Charlotte Champlin
