All skill levels can do this
REAL PAINTINGS FROM MY STUDENTS!
LEARN with ERICA ERIKSDOTTER
Pet Portrait Painter
My name is Erica and I paint realistic custom portraits of dogs and cats that grief counselors say help my customers work through losing a pet. My art has been featured wildly in the press including Washington Post, My Modern Met and on national and global television.
I grew up in Sweden as the youngest of three daughters and with a beloved Yorkshire terrier named Lucas. I loved to paint from an early age and I sold my first painting at age 10. Now I also teach painting courses for all skill levels.
This 8-Day Painting Challenge is a gentle way to tap into your own creativity, joy and wellbeing. It helps you tune into the whispers of inspirations and creativity in your daily life, even if you can’t even doodle.
There have been times during my 3 decades of being a painter where I’ve lost that spark and the joy of painting, or life has been too overwhelming to feel any creative flow happening. During times like these it’s hard to find the motivation to paint or shake the resistance that’s blocking your creativity. It can be frustrating and disappointing. But those are the times I’ve needed to paint the most, to tap into the meditative joy and wellbeing feelings of creativity.
My Painting Challenge is modeled after my own strategy of gently tapping into my own creativity during the rough times: focusing on making it easy, painting without expectations and making it a daily habit again. We all have the creative energies inside of us, ready to be awakened and strengthened. Taking the step of simply starting is key.
Whether you feel disconnected from your creative side, have painted for years, are just starting out, or you’re simply new to painting acrylics, the 8-day painting challenge is the perfect place to unwind and be inspired.
She’s truly an inspiration!
I often struggle with identifying the colors and I loved it! The way Erica teaches (on camera) is very calming and easy to follow. I learned to blend and smooth out the colors in the eyes so they look softer and soulful. She’s truly an inspiration! 🙏💐

This course is jampacked!
I stumbled upon Erica on Instagram and was open to learning new techniques. This course is jam packed. Erica really helped me look for the colors in the eyes, and I especially enjoyed blending and working wet-on-wet when possible. She gives her all when teaching and sharing. She’s very open, giving person and I’m very grateful for her knowledge and talent.
Patti, painter from Alberta, Canada
It was inspiring and encouraging
I love painting animals but I find painting realistic eyes very difficult. I loved the way Erica painted eyes and doing her course was very inspiring and encouraging. I specifically liked the way she used different tones for the pupil and the reflection in the eye.
Linda Ashmore, painter from British Columbia, Canada
It was so exciting to see the painting come to life!
“I really liked the illustrations and photos Erica provided for all the steps. This was a fun experience during a busy time in my life. I definitely recommend it to other beginners as long as you’re up for a fun and sometimes challenging time. I’m really pleased with how my painting turned out and I enjoyed learning this way.”
