New Year Bubbly (Now has a download!)
This is an older tutorial that I just created a download for! It is a very easy design to do and the year can be customized!
Carols In The Snow
Music and the arts are a big part of my family! Every year I do a different snowman painting. This year I decided to do a music theme inspired from my sons who are really into music right now. One sings in the choir and the other is a talented clarinet player! My third son doesn’t play an instrument but if he did, he definitely would love to play the bell (or the drums)! This painting is an absolute delight! You can customize it with different colors or even change the instruments. There is a traceable for this one!

The Bridge To Winter
This is an intermediate level painting, however, there are details at the end of this painting that you can omit to make this more of a simpler design! Tutorial comes with optional traceables sized for different canvas sizes.

Boo Letters – NEW Download Added To This One!
NEW! You can download the tutorial for this one as well as traceables sized for different canvas sizes.
This is a super fun halloween painting! You can customize letters and different Halloween objects. It’s also a fun one to do with the kids! This one is an easy one but there are a lot of details in it! Template is used for the tutorial but you can also hand draw the letters! Add glitter for some extra fun sparkle!
Pumpkin Pie Morning – Round Canvas Design
“Pumpkin Pie Morning” is painted on a 12″ diameter round canvas! This one is intended to be a Thanksgiving theme painting!
Don’t want to run out and get a round canvas? You don’t have to! This design also works on a standard rectangular canvas.
I will say that painting on the circle is so refreshing and new! Especially if you’ve been working exclusive on rectangle for a while. It forces you to think about composition in a new, unique way!
Traceables are optional for this one and I will be teaching drawing in this lesson. If you like traceables, there will be ones available for both the circle and a standard rectangular canvas.
How To Check Your Email Settings!
If you haven’t been getting emails, check your email settings to make sure you have them sent to “Instant”. That way, when a new tutorial is released, the entire tutorial is sent immediately to your inbox! If you tried this and are having troubles, please reach out!
Here is how:
- When you are logged into your account, look for the little “Bell Symbol”.
2. Then Click on the little “Settings Symbol”
3. It will take you to an email notification setting page. Then set your email notifications to “Instant”. This means that when a new tutorial is released, you will get it instantly in your inbox! Note: this is the way it has always been, however, when the software updated in June of 2026, some settings were not transferred correctly for some members.
Some other things to try…
- Try adding “email@e.podia.com” AND “tracieannekiernan@gmail.com to your email contacts. These are the emails that get sent out with the new tutorial. If you add those to your email contacts, they won’t be put in Spam or Promotions.
- Look in your promotions tab or Spam tabs. If it’s being sent to Spam, you can specify it not to go to that area in your email anymore. The Promotions Tab I don’t have much control over because it’s based on the algorithm of your email, however, I believe if you add either of those email addresses to your “contacts”, it shouldn’t be putting the email in that folder.
Enchanted Woodland Fawn

“Moody Mums” – Bonus Tutorial For September 2026
They could be giant chrysanthemums (“mums”) or zinnias or marigolds or dahlias! This fall themed bouquet is our “Bonus Tutorial” for the month of September 2026. Tutorial will have an optional traceable template, full video and PDF instructions.
Painting is done on a canvas that is painted black and we will work with a “moody” fall color palette featuring deep reds, browns and oranges with a pop of olive green!
The Cozy Autumn Bookstore
This painting was so much fun to create and it’s easy to get lost in! Paint a cozy rainy autumn day featuring a store front of a bookstore. Detail the window with books and fall wreath decor. You can get as detailed or simplistic as you would like with this design! Inside the tutorial is an optional traceable template which helps with drawing the lines from the building.
Note: I placed this painting in the “easy” category, however, it may be more of a “medium level” because there are quite a few details in it. All of the techniques in this painting are very beginner friendly and it’s meant to be an illustrated/ non-realistic design!
Hammock Beach (New PDF Added!)
Learn to paint a hammock on the beach tied to two palm trees! A new PDF download was just added in this one as well as traceables.
Pumpkin Patch Keeper
Paint an adorable scarecrow sitting on a pumpkin. “Pumpkin Patch Keeper” has optional traceable templates as well as drawing instruction.
You will notice there are now “Quick Instructions” along with the traditional long PDF instructions that I write. After numerous requests, I am trialing these quick instructions which will be only 2 pages long and they have a condensed version of the tutorial. These are helpful for those that don’t want the long version or instructors that just want a quick overview.
Fall Tree – (Repeat Tutorial but has new PDF & tracer)
There is no new tutorial this week, however, I sent an email out with a previous tutorial and now with a new PDF & traceable. “Fall Tree” is an easy painting with a unique perspective.
