Value of Your Membership
Here's the value of what's provided inside your membership for your low monthly fee.
β€οΈ You have access to a library of Pattern Packets valued at $9.95 each. New ones are added every month.
β€οΈ Not only that, you can watch a growing collection of instructional videos in the library and those are valued at $19.95 each.
β€οΈ You can attend live workshops and tutorials with Cheryl valued at $50 per session.
β€οΈ You have access to a wide range of quick-reference technique videos anytime you need them... each one valued at $19.95.

β€οΈ And of course... being part of the Community is priceless.
If you do the math the value adds up quickly. But it's more than the price. It's what all of this makes possible for you as a complete package.
It's how all of this is here to help you grow and learn exactly what you need to become a more confident painter.
The $27 monthly membership gives you clear direction, immediate access to valuable learning resources,
and all the new monthly live sessions, projects, packets, and videos for as long as you remain a member.
That means you can eliminate confusion and frustration,
and access exactly what you need to start immediately and increase your joy of painting.
Does Any Of This Sound Familiar?
You love the idea of painting. You've watched tutorials, maybe bought supplies, maybe even started a few projects. But somewhere along the way, things stalled.
You watch video after video but still feel unsure of what to do next.
You have half-finished projects tucked away in a drawer somewhere.
You feel overwhelmed by all the techniques, materials, and conflicting advice.
You worry your projects won't turn out the way you hoped.
You secretly wonder if you're just "not artistic enough."
You tell yourself you'll get back to it β but you never quite do.
Here's what I want you to know:
It's not a talent problem. It's a structure problem.
Most painters don't need more videos.
They need a clear path, the right guidance, and someone in their corner when they get stuck.
That's exactly what Earmark Creative Studio was built to provide.
Imagine If Painting Felt Completely Different
Here's what members of Earmark Creative Studio experience:
From
β Feeling overwhelmed and unsure where to start
β Starting projects and never finishing them
β Guessing at techniques and hoping for the best
β Watching YouTube and still feeling stuck
β Feeling like someone who "just dabbles"
β Painting alone with no one to ask
To
β β Knowing exactly what to paint next
β β Completing pieces you're proud to hang on your wall
β β Building skills layer by layer with clear step-by-step guidance
β β Learning from a structured path designed to build on itself
β β Seeing yourself as a real artist β because you are
β β Being part of a community of caring and supportive painters
And perhaps most importantly... painting stops being something you feel guilty about not doing, and becomes something that genuinely helps you slow down, decompress, and reconnect with your creativity.

INCLUDED WITH YOUR MEMBERSHIP
Brilliant Brushes...
Your Complete Decorative Painting Foundations Course
From complete beginner to confident intermediate painter β step by step.
Or... a great place to start if you're returning to Decorative Painting after a long absence.
Most painters try to learn techniques randomly.
They watch a tutorial here, try a technique there, and wonder why progress feels so slow.
Brilliant Brushes was built differently.
Lessons are layered so prerequisite lessons are learned first. That means you won't struggle with a technique because you have not learned the basic skills first.
You have practice projects to reinforce what you have learned.
Cheryl is a certified coach, so she knows how to help people break through the inner barriers that prevent them from becoming the best they can be.
The Painters' Path provides perspective on where you are and where to focus next. That means that you will have better opportunity to use the course to learn and do the right things in the right order.
Our community provides the company of fellow painters to share ideas and support so you are no longer painting alone.
The course enables you to enjoy the projects that are presented in the Studio membership. So everything is connected to work together to give you the best training possible.
It's a complete foundations course included with your Earmark Creative Studio membership.
And it's unlike anything else you'll find in a painting membership.
Here's how it works:
4 Modules. Dozens of lessons β all organized in a specific sequence so that every skill builds on the one before it.
Prerequisite skills are taught first β so you're never thrown into a technique you're not ready for.
Each module ends with a complete project β so you can see your progress and feel the satisfaction of finishing something beautiful.
Skills stack as you go β so by the time you reach Module 4, you're painting pieces that would have felt impossible when you started.
This isn't a random collection of videos. It's a structured learning path designed to take you from "I don't know where to start" to "I can't believe I painted that."
Enjoy all or some of Brilliant Brushes, as part of the membership which includes monthly projects, live sessions, advanced techniques, and a community to keep you growing.
ALSO INCLUDED
Ever Wonder... "What Should I Learn Next?"
The Painter's Path helps you find exactly where you are... and where to go next.
One of the most common frustrations painters face is not knowing where they fit or what they should focus on.
Are you a beginner? Intermediate? Somewhere in between?
The Painter's Path is a unique roadmap inside Earmark Creative Studio that helps you:
β Understand your current skill level clearly
β Identify the lessons and resources most relevant to you right now
β Know exactly what to work on next, without guessing
β Progress at your own pace without feeling lost or left behind
Whether you're brand new or returning after years away, The Painter's Path makes sure you're always working on the right things at the right time.
Meet Cheryl Poulin
Teaching decorative painting since 1993.
Hi, I'm Cheryl.
Since 1993 I've been helping painters of all levels discover what they're truly capable of ... and have a lot of fun doing it.
I've seen the same thing happen again and again: people don't quit painting because they aren't talented. They quit because they feel stuck, unsupported, and unsure of what to do next.
That's why I built Earmark Creative Studio the way I did.
That's why I created the Earmark Studio Method of teaching.
Every lesson is designed to be clear, encouraging, and genuinely doable... whether you're picking up a brush for the first time or returning to a craft you've always loved.
My goal is simple: I want you to finish projects you're proud of, build skills that stick, and fall in love with painting for the first time... or all over again.
I can't wait to paint with you.
Cheryl
Here's What Painters Say About Learning With Cheryl
"Loved your classes! Such a welcoming and positive environment. I had zero confidence and I am amazed at what I was able to create in your classes. I still have many of the paintings on my wall."
β Christina H.
"Painting with you is always so relaxing. When I get stressed when I make a mistake, you always help me fix it. I like that you show me rather than do it for me. This has made painting so much more pleasant and a great learning experience."
β J. Smythe
"I've painted with you many times and I always learned something new. You made me feel more confident and I fell in love with painting all over again."
β Diane L.
"Even though I've been painting for some time, I learned a lot from your videos. I was always stuck on why I couldn't do a certain stroke properly but now I see what I was doing wrong."

"But What If..."
I hear these concerns a lot. Here's the honest truth.
"What if I'm a complete beginner and it's too advanced for me?"
Earmark Creative Studio was built with beginners in mind. Brilliant Brushes β included with your membership β starts from the very beginning and builds skills one layer at a time. You don't need any prior experience. You just need to show up.
"What if I can't draw?"
Decorative painting is not about drawing. It's about brush techniques, colour, and pattern β and all of those are teachable skills. Many of our members had never drawn a thing in their lives before they started painting beautiful pieces. Templates and patterns are included to make it even easier.
"What if I join and never use it?"
That's a fair concern β and it's exactly why the Painter's Path exists. Instead of logging in and feeling overwhelmed by a library of content, you'll know exactly where to start and what to do next. The structure is designed to keep you moving forward, not spinning your wheels.
"What if I don't have much time?"
Even 20β30 minutes a few times a week is enough to make real progress inside the Studio. Lessons are designed to be digestible. You work at your own pace. There are no deadlines, no pressure, and no "keeping up." You go when you can, and the content is always there waiting for you.
"What if I'm afraid I'll waste money on something I don't finish?"
You can cancel anytime β no contracts, no penalties, no awkward cancellation process. If you join and decide it's not for you, you simply cancel. But here's what I've found: when people have a clear path and real support, they don't quit. They finish things. That's the whole point of how the Studio is built.
"What if my projects don't turn out?"
They might not be perfect the first time β and that's completely okay. That's how learning works. Inside the Studio you have Live Q&A sessions where you can ask Cheryl directly, a community of supportive painters, and step-by-step guidance designed to help you troubleshoot and improve. You're never stuck alone.
"I already watch YouTube. Why do I need this?"
YouTube is great for inspiration. But it's not structured. It doesn't know where you are in your development. It can't answer your questions. And it doesn't give you a path. Earmark Creative Studio gives you all of that β plus a community, monthly projects, and a teacher who has been doing this for more than 30 years.
More From Painters Who've Learned With Cheryl
"Your classes are very enjoyable and I always learn something new. Your classes are always relaxed, and I never feel pressured to paint at a quicker pace."
β Wendy B.
"Always guaranteed a chuckle or two in your workshops! I love your teaching style and how you explain things in so many different ways."
β F. Volek
Six Months From Now, What Will You Be Doing
Six months from now, you could still be watching YouTube tutorials and wondering why progress feels so slow, confusing and frustrating.
Or you could be looking at a collection of finished paintings you created yourself... pieces you're proud of, skills you've built, and a creative practice that genuinely brings you joy.
The difference isn't talent.
The difference is having the right structure, the right guidance, and the right support.
That's what Earmark Creative Studio is here to provide.
Enrollment is open right now... but only for a limited time.
I'd love to paint with you.
β Cheryl
Here's What Happens Next
As soon as you join things will happen. First you will get yourself oriented in the studio and introduce yourself.
There's a welcome video and instructions to help get you started.
I also provide 2 live ZOOM Welcome Calls to answer any question you may have.
You will have immediate access to everything in the membership.
And of course, you will have access to all events and new videos scheduled for this month and beyond.
β° Enrollment CLOSES September 11, 2026 at 3:30 PM ET
I'm accepting new members for one day only.
Why only one day?
Because I don't want Earmark Creative Studio to become
one of those memberships you sign up for and then forget about.
I open the doors for a short time, welcome new members into the Studio,
and then close enrollment so I can get on with creating, teaching,
and taking care of the members who are already inside.
Plus, I like to get to know the newbies right away!!
And yes, that means you have to make a decision. π
