See like an artist.
Value studies help you break a complex scene into light and dark shapes, teaching you to recognize form, depth and contrast—before worrying about color. Daily practice builds this foundational skill —arguably the most important element in your art.
Strengthen your compositions.
Good composition is built on strong value structure. Studying value helps you focus on structure, balance and contrast—critical tools for any successful piece, regardless of your medium.
Simplify the painting process.
When you start with strong values, color becomes a supporting act—not a crutch. A strong value plan gives your full-color piece a solid foundation. This challenge sets you up for success in every future piece.
Develop a lasting creative habit and grow your artistic confidence. All for less than $1 per day.
Daily, bite-sized practice adds up. In just 15–30 minutes a day, you'll see measurable growth by the end of the month—and establish momentum for whatever comes next.
