Should I choose the one-time payment or membership option?
You have the option for purchasing this class on its own or as part of the membership.
The choice depends on how you create.
Membership: the Get Messy membership is here for the creative soul with restless hands and a busy mind (and schedule), ready to cultivate a consistent art habit that allows you to release your truth, emotions, and dreams onto the page. For those who prefer to live an all-encompassing creative life with catalysts that spur on the creative habit.
One-time payment: for the creative who loves knuckling down and diving deep into a class. Someone who prefers to focus on one thing and take the time it requires before moving onto the next. The bonus is that you get to keep the class forever and it will wait for you during your busy seasons and be there when you’re ready again. You might also be wanting to test the Get Messy teaching style out a bit and this is a good way to dip your toes in. You can enroll in the full class.
You can also enjoy the free lesson here.
What format do I receive the class in?
This class is powered by Get Messy.
During registration, you will choose your own username and password for the private site.
If you’re enrolling as a once-off class and already have a Get Messy account (yay), just make sure you’re already logged in and your details will already be there. All of your content is accessible to you under one username.
The class will be available through this private site for the lifetime of Get Messy. The lessons are a mixture of video and written instruction given in English with a pair of brilliant accents. To get an idea of the lesson style and Claudette and Char’s teaching technique, check out the free lesson.
Do I have to start on a specific date?
This is a self-paced class. You start when you are ready and work according to your own rhythm. The Get Messy community will be going through it together, but it’s not date-specific.
What do I need for this class?
A journal, your current preferred supplies, and an open heart! A detailed list of supplies is shared inside the course, but you likely have what you need on hand and we never recommend spending a lot of money on supplies without knowing how and if you will use them. Always take creative license to substitute or use supplies that you already have and love.
How long do I have access to this class?
If you’re enjoying this as part of the membership, you’ll have access as long as you’re a member (along with the rest of our chunky library).
If you’re enrolling as a once-off class, your access is for ever ever.*
* Disclaimer: Get Messy is not Ms. Jackson, and “lifetime access” means the lifetime of the company.
Can I contact the teacher if I have questions?
Member? You have a dedicated private space in the community where your teacher delights in answering any questions you have about the class content.
Once-off class purchase? You won’t have access to the community unless you join Get Messy at a later time.
Can I share my work and what I learn in this class?
That would be awesome!
There is a dedicated gallery and discussion going on inside the community. You’re also welcome to share on Instagram using #gmwindowview and tag @getmessyartjournal in your stories.
