Creative Breakthrough

Hello, I’m Paula!

I'm an artist and teacher with a passion for helping artists experience success. After struggling with my own process for years, I finally discovered how to create art I love- that also SELLS!

When I learned how to break through my own limiting beliefs as an artist and employ key art principles, my art and career took off. Suddenly I was featured in newspapers and magazines (even Vanity Fair!), interviewed on tv several times, invited to be represented by galleries, awarded a grant, and winning ribbons at prestigious art fairs all while making art that I enjoyed.

It’s my passion to show you exactly how to let go of the struggle and create the art and career of your dreams.

When I’m not creating art, I'm playing with my family of 2 little boys + 2 teenage boys and 1 big boy husband having adventures in the Atlanta area and surrounds. Let's start CREATING!
