21 Secrets is an online class that runs from April 1, through January 1. For a nominal fee you get classes by 21 different teachers. The classes are short with videos and pdf handouts. The teachers interact with you via chat or comments and seem to be very available. You can take the classes in any order you want, take as long as you want and revisit each class if you wish.

The first class I did was Wonderful Watercolor with Julie Fei-Fan Balzer. I am a big fan of Julie’s work and know that she always gives value for your time and money.

The picture is for your interpretation. I see a house in the woods in the fall. My husband is from Europe and he sees a train passing in the evening all lit up. What do you see?

I’ve already started to delve into my next class. I’ve chosen Word Play with Christine Mason Miller. Christine is a friend of a friend and I’ve seen her work in various magazines so I want to check it out.

This may be the real secret (and fun) inside of 21 Secrets – getting the flavor of each teacher’s individual teaching style. Stay tuned…
