Paint Iggy the Polar Bear – A Cozy Winter Sign Anyone Can Create

If you love painting but sometimes hesitate because you’re not sure your finished piece will really come together, this tutorial is for you. In Iggy the Polar Bear, I walk you through the entire process step by step — from basecoating to shading, adding cozy winter details, and finishing touches that make a sign look polished and professional. Nothing is rushed, nothing is complicated, and every technique is explained in a way that makes sense whether you’re newer to painting or just want cleaner, more confident results. Many painters struggle with knowing how much shading is enough, how to create soft dimension without muddy colors, or how to turn a cute idea into a finished piece they’re proud to display — or even sell. In this course, you’ll learn simple, repeatable techniques you can use again on future projects, not just this one. This isn’t about “cute crafts” that stay unfinished. It’s about learning how to: Create soft depth and dimension Add texture that looks intentional, not messy Finish a winter sign that feels cohesive and complete Build confidence in your painting skills so you can actually use them I’ve been painting and selling my work for over 25 years, and my teaching style is practical, encouraging, and focused on real results — not perfection. I show you what matters, what doesn’t, and how to trust yourself along the way. By the end of this tutorial, you’ll have a finished Iggy the Polar Bear sign and skills you can apply to future winter projects, home décor, or sellable pieces. 👉 Click enroll to get instant access and start painting today.
