Plan the painting
References, palettes, pigment information, colour-mixing guidance and structured painting plans stay together around the work.
Atelier membership
A quieter studio around the work that matters.
Start free and keep your Studio permanently. Upgrade to Pro for the complete painting, archival and professional workflow. Atelier is built to support the working process rather than compete with it.
Work from the easel
Use critique, WIP analysis and Atelier Mentor when they add value — without handing the artistic decisions away.
Run the studio
Use one Studio Business space for People, teaching, commissions, sales, a linked calendar and one financial record — without entering the same person twice.
Publish & discover
Build your public My Page, publish selected work and Journals, browse Discover, like useful posts and save favourite artist pages privately.
How the main workflow works
Put something in, get what you need out.
Creative Planning gives you four clear starting points. Use the one that matches what is already in front of you.
Create something to paint
1. Describe the idea. 2. Refine it only if needed. 3. Create and approve the reference, then prepare the painting guidance.
Plan from an image
1. Choose your medium. 2. Upload your reference. 3. Open & analyse it for palette, pigment, mixing and planning information.
Analyse a painting
1. Add the medium or question if useful. 2. Upload the work in progress. 3. Review focused next-step guidance and make your own decisions.
Room Visualiser
1. Upload the artwork. 2. Add the medium if useful. 3. Open the visualiser and create a downloadable room presentation.
Public side: create your My Page, publish only the items you choose, use Journals & Updates for editorial studio writing, browse Discover, like posts and save favourite artists. Journals are not a marketplace; clear advertising is blocked automatically and uncertain cases go to owner review.
