Not at all. Student-grade materials are perfect for these lessons. In fact - I’m filming from the little village I live in on an island with VERY limited supplies. The acrylics are from a kid’s bookstore and the watercolors are a travel set!

MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR
Rose Cameron is a lifelong artist, oil painter, and instructor who sees art as a form of dialogue between the artist, the subject, and the viewer. Working primarily in oil and charcoal, she is drawn to portraits, symbolism, and the natural world, but her guiding principle is simple: any subject that inspires is worth exploring.
Now living on a Greek island, Rose balances her own studio practice with teaching, sharing her love of art and creative expression with students worldwide. In addition to her independent courses, she is also an instructor with Kara Bullock Art School, where her classes reach a global audience of artists.
Beyond painting, Rose is the founder of two creative ventures: The Joy Academy, a platform dedicated to personal growth and redefining midlife through coaching and courses, and Eternal Recess, her lifestyle and travel journal that celebrates food, culture, and everyday adventure.
Through her paintings, writing, and teaching, Rose invites others to slow down, look closer, and discover the extraordinary in both art and life.
