Last Day to Join my Tribe! Going Behind the Scenes!

In this live YouTube session, Christie Renee Hawkins (The Social Easel) presents a comprehensive walkthrough of her VIP painting membership called "Tribe." She emphasizes that today is the final day the doors are open to the public before the program reopens in the spring. Christie outlines every component of the Tribe membership: three new full paintings each month, guest artist sessions, a library of 135+ tutorial videos (the "Vault"), live Q&A sessions, technique and bonus videos, contests, discounts, and devotional gatherings. She describes the private Facebook community of roughly 2,000 members, its supportive, drama‑free culture, and the various ways members can engage (live teaching, sharing work, challenges, happy‑mail). Pricing options are detailed – $47 per month with cancel‑anytime flexibility, or a $470 annual plan (two months free) with a one‑year commitment. She explains the upgrade path from her lower‑tier Painting of the Month Club, noting automatic cancellation of the older subscription. Christie demonstrates how to navigate the member website, locate tutorials via the search bar, use the welcome guide, calendar, and guides, and highlights the variety of artistic styles taught (florals, landscapes, mixed media, palette‑knife, watercolor‑like, seasonal themes) and her own impressionistic, loose approach. She clarifies member rights to sell created works and to host in‑person paint parties using her designs. Frequently asked questions are answered (e.g., supply recommendations, men joining, how to purchase individual tutorials for $37, and how to access the Amazon store). The session ends with a strong call to action to sign up before midnight, a reminder of the next enrollment window, and an invitation to upcoming welcome ceremonies and events.
Chapters
Hey everybody, how's everyone doing today? It is Christie Renee Hawkins with The Social Easel, and today we are not painting. Today I am talking to you all about my Tribe, the VIP membership that I have, and we're going to go behind the scenes. So if you want to know more about it and you want to see what it's all about and exactly what you get as a Tribe sister, that is what we're going to go over today because Today is the very last day that you can join. It's the last day that we have it open to the public, so I want to be on here and make sure that I'm answering all of your questions. So as you guys are hopping on, let me know where you're watching from today, and I'm gonna get you pulled up here. And happy Friday! I'm so happy it's Friday. Ready? I'm gonna keep that right there. My phone holder broke that I have over here. I'm gonna have to order another one of those because normally I can just prop my phone up and see your comments a little bit easier. Hey Vicki! Hey Tempe and Brenda! Happy Friday! So we are going behind the scenes, um, to see all the ins and outs of TRIBE and what it means to be a TRIBE sister. This is the last day that you can join. We won't open doors again until spring of next year. So I am here to answer all your questions and kind of give you an overview of everything so you can decide if it's the right fit for you. Um, Molly, if you're looking for purchases, just email customer service It's Christie at thesocialeasel.com. Um, you can also always go to the Social Easel website and our customer service email address is there if you have any questions, and they will be more than happy to help you out. You guys got big plans this weekend? Anyone do anything exciting? Hey Barbara, let me know if you are a Tribe Sister in the comments. You can be here to help answer their questions as well. And I'm going to go ahead and pull up the page that's going to explain everything to you, um, about it. So let me get that pulled up. Here we go. There's me with makeup on, not looking like I look right now. Hey Brenda, got a Tribe sister on here. So this is my VIP painting membership, okay? So this is like the top notch. The Tribe sisters get it all. This is where I teach when I'm not doing little Facebook Lives here and there. So like what I teach you guys on this page, on the free page, is just fun little paintings, crafts, all the different things. What you get inside Tribe is complete paintings from start to finish. You get 3 new paintings with me every single month, um, in addition to a guest artist or speaker. So no matter what level you're at— and I hear it all the time— is, I can't draw a stick figure. And if that's you, then I want you to join us because, um, we have had probably 90-95% of the women that started painting with me, um, never had any experience before. I've been teaching women for about 9 years, um, how to paint women and men, um, majority women, how to paint. And I used to do in-person paint classes, and then we started the membership about 3 and a half years ago. And, um, and that's the other benefit when you become a new Tribe sister. Here's some of the Tribe sisters from our, uh, meetup a few years ago before COVID Um, when you join, you get immediate access as a Tribe sister to the entire video library. So that's what we're talking about right here. It has over 135 tutorials, and this is what I like to call your, your Netflix of painting. Okay, so it works just like Netflix. As long as you are a paying member, as long as you are a Tribe Sister, you have access to everything that you see here on the screen, those 135 tutorials. We have 16 live Q&As, technique videos, bonus videos. All of that is in your video library, and you have access to that that you can jump in there and browse around, and I'm going to show you what all that looks like here in just a minute. Then inside our Facebook group, that's on the membership website. Inside our Facebook group is where you're going to see me and the entire group of women. So this is where I'm going to teach you live 3 times a month. This is where our guest artists are going to be, and this is where the community is hosted, is in our private Facebook group. Um, and then in addition to all that fun stuff, we do contests all the time. You get discounts and bonuses all the time as Tribe Sisters. And then I do a couple devotionals a month inside the group as well. Those are usually on Mondays, um, 2 to 3 times a month. So I will tell you, we are a positive vibes group only. No negativity, no drama, um, nada, none of that. And, um, so if you like to cause drama and you like to stir things up, this group isn't for you. Um, this group is all about encouragement and love and joy and lifting each other up, and that's what, um, I've been very dead set on keeping it that way and protecting the integrity of this group over the last 3 and a half years. Um, Leanne, we have about 2,000 ladies in the group right now, um, so there's lots of activity in there, there's lots of encouragement. No matter what level you're at, this is our success path. So you may be starting at the beginning of this success path, or you may be on the far end in the purple and already be doing this as a business, doing paint parties, selling your work. But here's the great thing is I believe as an artist, we never stop learning. If you stop learning, then I think you go backwards. So my goal is to continually stretch you as an artist, no matter what level you're at, and help you push forward and push past fear and objections in your head so that you can become a better artist. And we've seen so many women who started out as an exciting newbie, never had any intention of selling a piece of art, doing anything business related to this. They just wanted to do it as a hobby. And now people are asking for their pieces and they're paying for their membership with the pieces of art that they're selling to their friends and family. Some people are doing craft shows and selling it on Etsy. So you do have permission as a Tribe Sister to sell whatever you create with me in the group. You can sell that either in person or online. You have permission to teach paint parties in person only. So if you want to use any of my designs, we have over 135 because that's not even including what's in the Facebook group right now. You can choose any of those to do in-person paint parties and use my design instead of having to come up with your own every month. Um, Laura, the car— or Lori, sorry. The cost is— let me scroll down so you can read it while I'm talking about it. There are two ways to join. There's monthly level, is $47 a month. You can cancel at any time. Your payments are automatically deducted from your bank account or credit card each month that you use that. You can cancel anytime. So even if you're not sure and you're like, well, I don't want to miss out, try it for a month. You never know unless you try, right? And you're not locked into anything. So I would say if this sounds like something you're interested in, then jump in and hang out with us for a month and see what you think. Um, I promise you, you're going to leave encouraged and lifted up in the end of that 30 days and also learn some really fun paintings in the process because we have a really fun month ahead. And then if you know 100% you want to hang out and paint with me for the next year and hang out with other Tribe sisters, you can do the yearly level. But this is an annual subscription and it is a 1-year contract. So you cannot join this and then 6 months later say, I don't want to be in it anymore, I want a refund for 6 months, because that won't happen. Once you do the 1 year, you're committing to 1 year. So weigh those options and do what is best for you. You do get 2 months for free if you do the yearly option, so it's only $470. For 12 months instead of $47 a month. At the end of your 1-year term, you can cancel if you want, you can renew your 1-year term, or you can switch to monthly. So you've got 3 options at the end of that 1 year. Um, hey Barbara, she said— I'm gonna pull her comment up there if I can get my mouse to work. Barbara is one of our newest tribe sisters. She just did the Funky Winter Flowers with me, and she just jumped right in. She said, I'm a beginner, let me tell you, you did not get this kind of artistic tutorial that's basically like a one-on-one along with the rest of the sisters there to help. Thank you, I appreciate that. And I try my best when I'm teaching you guys, because I do teach live, um, it's our time to hang out together. So it's kind of like our girl time, right? And if you can't catch the lives, you don't have to be on my schedule. We have women all over the world, by the way. So we have women in the UK, Australia, Canada, and the United States. So I typically teach during daytime hours for me, and if you can't catch those live, you can always go back and watch the replays, and you can still engage with your tribe sisters and talk in the comments even if you don't catch it live. And then of course we have our group where you're going to be sharing your posts and your work. All these, I'm not going to go in to all of these. If you have questions, please let me know and I'll answer them in the comments. Um, one that we do get a lot, just because I saw this, we'll go ahead and click on that. What if I'm already a member of the Painting of the Month Club, which is my other membership? It's $20 a month. You get one painting per month, um, pre-recorded, delivered to your membership website. No Facebook group, no live teachings, any of that. If you are already a Painting of the Month member and you would like to upgrade to Tribe, all you have to do is just sign up for Tribe. It will automatically cancel your Painting of the Month Club subscription. And then if you just want to verify that, you can always just shoot the team an email and just say, hey, just making sure that got canceled because I want to switch over to Tribe. Um, what else did I want to show you? All of this is on the page. When you go to sign up, you're going to be able to browse this, um, and, and really dig into all of this. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't anything else. This is just a sampling of the style of work that I teach. So I do want to park it here for just a minute because you can see I love color, but I love all genres. I love, absolutely love florals. We're always going to paint a lot of flowers inside my group. I love landscapes, but I love cute animals, and I love the holiday time and doing all kinds of, you know, like the happy little scarecrow that's up there. So there's a whole plethora of different types of tutorials you can choose from. But I say this very, you know, upfront and forward: if you are wanting to learn from a teacher who teaches like photorealism and how to paint something that looks like a picture, that's not me. So I am more of a loose, impressionistic, messy, crazy kind of style of painting. We do, um, so like the happy little scarecrow, this is what you would call mixed media, where you take, um You know, I did a mixed media Christmas tree last night. You can go watch on, on this Facebook page if you didn't see it. But we take tissue paper and stamps and stencils and all the things with paint, and we combine them all together. And that's how we got this cute little scarecrow. So I did a Christmas tree last night. You can go check out. We do regular acrylic paintings, like a lot of this stuff in the top row here. And this is what I'm talking— the cutesy gnomes and the gingerbread house and the Easter Bunny. Um, but then I love palette knife work. So you've got like palette knife lemons down here, our sheep, the, the barn. Those are just a few samples. Again, we have about 150 that you're choosing from. So this is just a small look at it. And then we also do some— I don't know if there's one on this page, but I'll show you when we go into the group. We do some watercolor-like tutorials as well. So let's jump over. Let me make sure I'm not missing any questions first. Hey Karen, been a Tribe Sister going on 1 year. It was a great decision to join, very relaxing and comforting to paint with Christie and the group. Thank you so much, Karen. Almost 1 year anniversary. We need to start coming up with, um, team, if you're on here, we need to come up with something fun to celebrate when our Tribe Sisters have been in a year. Yay, awesome, Sherry! Welcome to the group. She said it was awesome, upgraded from Painting of the Month Club, and it totally canceled the payment for me, made it all easy, and I love all the extras of Tribe. Tribe is all about extras, okay? And I'm extra, so I like to spoil you guys. I like to give you the best of the best, and that's what you're gonna get inside the Tribe membership. And Linda's on here. Linda's been a Tribe sister for over 2 years. Um, she says it's my therapy and my happy place. And I don't think Pauline is on here, but Pauline was talking about that yesterday too, saying it's cheaper than therapy being in this group and taking time for yourself to be able to relax but hang out with other women, um, who are going through the same things you're going through. They're also learning how to paint, but it's more than painting. It's about community and this group of women that is just constantly around you, supporting you, and lifting you up. So let's go. Are you guys ready to see what it looks like behind the scenes? So you become a new Tribe Sister, you log in to your website. Okay, so again, we host the membership in two places. We have the website, which is what you're looking at right now, and we have our Facebook group. As soon as you become a member, this is where I would recommend that you go. I want you to log in, I want you to go to your library And I'm going to show you this. I'm going to go back to my library. When you log in, it says Social Easel Online Paint Studio Library. You're going to see Tribe up at the top, okay? That's where that 135+ videos that I'm talking about, that's where that is. We call it the Vault. If you had any bonuses, if you have done past workshops with me, if you were in Painting of the Month Club, All those things are right here in your library. Okay, so you see all those different things I have available, but this is where you want to go as a new Tribe Sister because this is where it unlocks all the magic for you. So we're going to go to view product, and this is your welcome. You can watch the welcome video from me. It gives you an overview of everything, um, and then we've got a little welcome right here. Quick and easy links for you over on the side. Our most commonly asked— where's the store, where's her blog, all that kind of stuff— we have it all on the side for you. But here's what I want to show you. See all these? You can scroll and look at it this way. All these different tutorials. Look at all those florals because I love flowers. Look at all those landscapes. Um, so you can see you have a ton to choose from. But what if you want to look at them and actually see what the pictures look like instead of just the titles? You're going to click on the word Vault, and then you get this little preview. So look, we're up to 141 tutorials to choose from in here. We've got our little farm animals at the front, and by the way, we, we have more animals coming. We're going to be doing a horse in the new year. We're going to be doing a llama, we're going to be doing an elephant, we're going to be doing a giraffe. I've got to add to my animal collection here. So those are all on the horizon. We've got some sea life. This was my summer series, so much fun. The sailboats and the lighthouse and the sea turtles, just happy, bright, fun colors. All the different florals you can choose from. So I'm just going to quickly scroll because there's a lot, a lot of different landscapes, some mixed media, palette knife work, all the fun seasonal stuff. I always like to do the fun seasons and all that good stuff too. Like, this time of year is my favorite time of year. So hopefully that gives you an idea of what the Membership Vault looks like. But here, let me show you this. Let's go back up to the top here, and I'm going to go back to Member Hub. Okay, so we're back on the Member Hub. See this little search bar right here? Let's say you just know you want to paint flowers. We're just going to type in flowers and hit enter, and it's going to pull up a list of everything that is a floral. And there's multiple pages. So if you're just wanting to search something, you could do that instead. Um, so this is what the website looks like. This is where, when you go to tribesister.com, this is what you're going to see. Um, let's jump over to our Facebook group. Let me see if I'm missing any questions. Um, Vicki, I think you already got your answer— your question answered, but yes, if you join Tribe Sisters, it will cancel your Painting of the Month Club for you. Awesome, welcome! Vicki just joined us. Okay, so this is the Facebook group. This is where all our 2,000 ladies are hanging out. This is where I teach. This is where my team is. Um, and we keep everything super organized in here. Okay, so when you become a new Tribe Sister, there's a lot to absorb, right? Because you have a lot to look at. So I just showed you the website, now I'm showing you the Facebook group. When you come into it, it's going to look like this. You're going to see a pinned announcement at the top, and then you're going to start seeing Tribe Sisters' paintings and things that they've posted. How gorgeous is this, by the way, DL? I love that. That's her Funky Winter Flowers. And then again, just look at this support that she gets. She posts this, all these likes and comments and encouragement, and that's what this group is all about. Gail sharing her newest one. That's really pretty, Gail. Um, and then just sharing stories. You guys can pray for each other, you can lift each other up. This is Melissa. She was our guest artist this morning, so that is her new video that she just did with some super cute snowmen. So this is kind of what the feed looks like, and you can just go catch up with your tribe sisters, see what everyone's doing, get inspired, all that good stuff. Go to the announcements tab, and obviously you see that first one that was pinned, but there's several. So anything that we want you to know as a tribe sister is always going to be in the announcements. Before you ask a question or email support, check announcements inside the Facebook group first, because if it's anything new we're offering or something you need to know about, this is where it's going to be. And so this is just some helpful links. We have a brand new welcome guide that I'm really excited about. This is like 3 years in the making, something I wanted a long time ago, and we finally have it. And this is something Allison on my team has put together. I'm going to show you guys that too. So whether you are a brand new tribe sister or you have been in a while, I would highly recommend downloading this welcome guide. And I'm going to show it to you here in a second, because all those questions, if you get on and you're like, man, I can't remember where to go to find Christie. Where am I supposed to go for the Facebook live? Or how do I get to my library? It's all in the welcome guide. And then you can just refer back to it. You can print it off if you want to, or you can just look at it on your computer. But this is where all announcements are. So like Tribe Sisters, they got Funky Winter Flowers as part of their membership, but they had to join the group. So their link to get into the group for free, right here in the announcements. The calendar— this is our November calendar. So you can see those 3 paintings on the top, that's what we're doing this month. Melissa just taught those, that cute little couple of snowmen. She just taught that this morning. I'm teaching Santa next week, and then we're doing the snowman after that. But you can see our schedule right here. You can print this off, save it, whatever works for you. Um, we're doing our Tribe Sister Welcome Ceremony where I'm going to welcome every— everyone new into the group, um, on Monday, and then we'll be doing a devotional on the following Monday. So that is kind of like the announcements tab, okay? All the important stuff. Now let's say you want to see last week's tutorial that I did, that I taught live. You're going to go to your guides. The first guide is all about getting started. This is where you're going to find our rules, getting started checklist, your welcome guide, all of that stuff. The second guide is all about shopping with me, how to get to my Amazon store, my store if you want Tribe Sister stuff, um, all that good things. And then 3, 4, and 5 are going to be your last 3 months of tutorials. So you can see Melissa is already listed under November tutorials. These are your October tutorials. These are September tutorials, along with your color list and template if there is one. Um, if you want to paint originals and you want to share them with the Tribe Sisters, we have posts just for that. And they have to go under these particular posts just so it doesn't confuse people. If you're sharing an original, we don't want other people to think that they have the rights to paint that. So we have a separate list for originals where you guys can share what you're working on. This is previous guest, guest artists, some getting started basics. And then anytime I go live on the public page like I am right now, instead of you having to go search and find it, we put it here in the Tribe Sister group so that you don't even— like, you just know this is your go-to. Okay, a lot of times people are confused of where I'm at. Where's Christie teaching? If it's a Tribe painting, it's inside this group because this is only for paid members. Um, if it's a Facebook Live like I'm doing and I'm just doing a fun little thing, it's going to be right here, public Facebook Lives on the Social Easel page. But you have a guide for them. Those are past devotionals, um, tips and tricks from your Tribe sisters. And then we have Tribe Sister Happy Mail, um, which is just us reaching out to other Tribe sisters sending letters, little pieces of art. Um, again, we're just spreading some joy and happiness with painting. Um, and then you've got some bonus videos down here. So that's what your guides looks like and what your Facebook group looks like. And then I told you I was going to show you the new welcome guide, and this is just a quick overview. Again, stop me if you guys have questions, please put them in the comments and I'll stop and answer them. But just some, like, before you jump in, kind of don't get overwhelmed. Um, all, all my advice to you as a new member is right here. Um, what being a Tribe Sister is. Okay, so this is all about, um, our community, um, and our vibe as a group. And then here's what a Tribe Sister is not. And so these are just some You know, quick to the point. Here's what we don't want happening inside of the group. Everything your membership includes. Probably the page where most of you will stop and hang out for a bit is where do I find Christie? So number one, we always want you in the Inner Tribe Facebook group. That's where all the action is. That's our group. That's our community. So that's where you need to hang out. You need to pin it to your groups. So when you log into Facebook, it's pinned up there, super easy access, easy for you to find. Um, so that's where you're going to find your tribe sisters and me teaching live. Your membership library— these are all past tutorials. The Social Easel Facebook page, what we're on right now, this is for the public, so it's open to anyone. And then our free Facebook group— I don't teach inside the free Facebook group. This is a place where you can go and share all the artwork that you have done with me so others can see it as well. And this is just a quick overview of your Facebook table of contents, the difference between your library and your vault. So we've just put it all here together for you. This is your amazing team. Um, I couldn't do it without all these ladies. And if you need help, um, where do you go? So all of this is here along with my resources. We have a fun new Tribe Sister bingo card when you get in that if you complete this, you get some happy mail from me. Um, so it's awesome, and we just want you to enjoy the journey and sit back and have some fun with us. So, um, let me know if you guys have any more questions for me. That gives you a little overview of what it's all about. But today is the last day to join. It ends at midnight tonight. So this is my last, last live with you while we are open because I'm going camping this weekend. So we're going to be heading out, um, here shortly. So what questions do you have? Um, Sherry said, where do I go to sign up to be a Tribe Sister? Sherry, um, the description on the video has the link to become a Tribe Sister, and I think we can put it in the comments. Is it going to let me? Oh yay, sometimes it doesn't let me put things in the comments and sometimes it does. I put the link there in the comments for you. Yes, so the whole reason we created— uh, Lynn said when you join you should do the bingo for sure, it's so helpful. Even again, if you're an older Tribe Sister, you can still do this because it's a good refresher of where everything is. But we created that to make it as a fun way for you to, you know, get used to everything and find your way around inside of the group. Yes, absolutely, Barbara. You can sell your work, make up the payment, plus you're getting all those lessons too. So it is a— it's a win-win. Do you guys have any other questions for me? Allison, is there anything I didn't cover that I was supposed to cover? But we are excited. We are excited for our welcome ceremony next week and for the rest of this month, and I've got some fun things in store for December as well. And of course the new year. So we don't open doors again to the public until spring of next year. So if you're wanting to get in on all those things I talked about, all the things that I have planned, this is going to be the time you want to join. And I get it all the time, so I want to be very clear about this. When you guys see me post new artwork on Instagram or the Social Easel Facebook page, those are for my tribe. So everything I create, all the new paintings that I do, they are for my tribe. And then after that, they may end up being painting of the month down the road. They may end up being a pop-up workshop if we get a lot of feedback. But tribe is how you get them, because I have those questions all the time. I'll post— like, I posted my new snowman and they're like, oh, I love it, can I just buy that? And the answer is no. We don't put it in our store. We don't sell it as an individual tutorial. until the following month after I teach it. And then you're gonna play, you're gonna pay full price for it that way. So you can buy single tutorials in my store for $37 apiece. Let me pull that page up really quick. So I do want you to know you have options, right? So if you are not sure you want to join Tribe I'm going to tell you some other ways that you can still continue to paint with me. So this is our online store. So this is where you can shop all my individual paintings, and they are $37 a piece. So I want you to kind of like think about that. You can buy one painting for $37, or you can be a Tribe Sister for $47 a month, and you have access to about 150 tutorials at that price where you can browse and pick any of these that you want to and do them on your own time. Um, so that is one way you can paint with me. Um, the other way is Let me just go to— come on now, it's not open yet, but we do have, um, a couple different ways you can paint with me. So obviously Tribe is what we're talking about today. Doors closed for this. This only opens 2 times a year to the public. That's $47 a month. It includes everything you see listed here, everything I've already gone over in the video. If you're not quite ready for that, you can do Painting of the Month Club, which is only one painting a month. It's delivered straight to your membership home, and these are exclusive. So these are not, um, the Painting of the Month Club paintings are different than what you'll find in my store that I just showed you. These are hand-selected for Painting of the Month Club. They're my most popular paintings that we save for those Painting of the Month Club members. So if you feel like this is too much and you don't want the community and you don't want all the extras, Painting of the Month Club is a great option that you can join at $20 a month. So those are my two memberships. And then I just showed you, you can also buy single tutorials for $37, but they will not be the new ones. So again, anytime you see me show something new, they're not going in the store and they're not available for the public to purchase. Those are exclusive for my Tribe Sisters. Um, Let me jump back over here. Yes, Allison, I will show— let me go back here. These are your upcoming paintings for this month from me, and then I just showed you— I think I can click this. This is the one that Melissa taught today. So cute. So this is our November classes plus the Funky Winter Flowers. Um, Verna said, where do we find paints and supplies? I have an Amazon store with all my favorite stuff. All the things I recommend are in that store, and we have some getting started lists for you of just some basics. I get my stuff from everywhere. I get craft paints from Hobby Lobby, um, from Amazon, from Michaels. So you've got lots of places where you can get your supplies, but we do have a list and our store with all my favorites. Lori said, can men join Tribe Sisters? They can right now. I will tell you that they would be the only man in there. So it is a sisterhood, but we definitely are not going to stop anyone from joining if they want to hang out and paint with us. Um, yes, Barbara. Yes, she said if you can't find a color, you are going to learn how to mix colors in this club. Um, so you will. I teach color mixing, I teach color theory. It's not just the paintings per month that you're getting. I'm teaching you the fundamentals of art while I'm teaching you these fun paintings. So again, this is not, um, this is not comparable to just going to a paint night. Which is what I did for several years. But there was only so much I could teach in a paint night. We're at a restaurant, we're on a limited time frame. I'm teaching 40 to 45 women at a time, helping them, all the things. So it was pretty direct, like follow these steps, do this, moving on to the next, moving on to the next. When I started teaching online, I found like I don't have to stop there. With you guys inside Tribe, I can dig deep with you. I can teach you everything that I learned in college. Um, when I was studying art, I can teach those fundamentals to you so that you understand and you start perceiving how to come up with your own compositions, or how things work in negative space and perspective and color mixing. To me, all the fun things, right? I share that with you guys while I'm teaching. Um, so I hope that answers those questions. And yes, Linda said we do Tribe Sister challenges too, which are so much fun. So If you love a good game, if you love competition, you will love our Tribe Sister Challenges. And then of course, there's always fun prizes at the end. So basically, we just have a whole lot of fun in there and it's a happy place to be. For most of the women, they will tell me it is my happy place. Like when there's enough, there's, there's enough drama in the world, right? There's enough negativity in the world. There's nothing worse than getting on Facebook or wherever you're hanging out and you're just reading negative story after negative story, drama, all the things. We are a safe haven away from all of that. When you come into the Tribe Sister Facebook group, you're going to be lifted up and inspired instead of being stressed out. And, uh, you know, we don't need to live in this sense of fear. God did not give us a spirit of fear. Um, and so like my whole goal is to not only teach you guys painting but give you a place where you're loved on, um, and, um, it's a safe, happy place for you to hang out. Again, positive vibes only. So if you want a happy place to go if you're in a bad mood and you're like, I need to jump over into the Tribe Sister group and get some motivation, that's what we're there for. Okay ladies, I think that is it. Last day, last day. You have until midnight tonight to sign up and be a Tribe Sister. Um, doors won't open again until spring of next year. The cost is $47 a month, which you can cancel anytime, or if you are ready to commit to a full year with me, you can do the yearly contract for $470, and that gives you 2 months for free. So, um, go back if you came in late You can start this from the beginning and see all the details. I answer all the questions. So we are excited to have you. I'm excited for those of you that have already joined. There's so many new Tribe sisters on here right now. We are so excited to have you, and I can't wait for our welcome ceremony on Monday. So you guys have a great weekend. If you missed anything this week, I was live a whole bunch. Just go back to the Facebook page on the Social Easel and just go to videos. And you're going to see all kinds of fun things we did this week. All right, I will talk to you soon. Bye!
