Top Questions
What is Art With Lauren?
Art With Lauren takes kids ages 5-13 through a journey of artistic discovery! Each week, we learn about a new and exciting art topic. Learn how to paint and draw from home with high quality, on-demand art lessons.
What comes with the art program?
You get all 75+ classes in our library, including new lessons that come out regularly. You can watch any lesson at any time. Memberships are per family, meaning siblings paint free!
What supplies do we need?
Every class includes time to draw and paint. All you need is a watercolor set and art supplies that you'll already have around the house.
- Watercolor paper
- Watercolor paint & brush
- Cup of water, small towel
- Pencil, eraser, sharpie, crayons
- Scissors & tape (painters or masking)
- Table salt & glue
- A dash of creativity
What ages is this for?
Lessons are made for school age kids (5-13). That said, it's very common for younger and older family members to paint, too. If you're having fun, you're old enough (or young enough!).
How much does it cost?
Try your first week free, then plans start at $10 per month. You can choose between a semester or a yearly plan.
Is it easy to cancel?
Yep! Tap the account icon, then "my memberships", then "cancel".
Do you accept State/Charter funds?
Yes! I partner with pretty much any program that families want to use → See Partner Programs
Can I use lessons for my school/co-op?
More and more teachers are using me in class as their art or watercolor activity. If you're teaching kids in a group setting and everyone is watching one lesson at the same time, you just need one membership. Try a lesson with your kids and let me know how it goes.
If you'd like each of your families to have access at home, everyone will need their own membership. Contact me for a group discount if you are purchasing for more than 5 families.
Can I give lessons as a gift?
Yes you kind soul! Head here.
Live Classes Ad-On
I also do weekly live classes on zoom. You can add live classes for ~$15 per class. More info here.
Getting Started
I signed up, how do I watch lessons?
You can watch lessons from your computer, tablet, or cast to a TV:
- Head to the Class Library
- Tap any lesson
- Sign in with your current account email or mobile number
- Paint your heart out!
What lessons should I start with?
Try what looks fun!You can sort lessons by difficulty if you'd like to start with lessons that match your skill level, but don't let that hold you back from trying lessons outside your comfort zone - that's how we get better.
A special note for perfectionists: if you get frustrated easily, try starting with more abstract lessons like Alma Thomas's Earth or Kandinsky's Flowers. There is no right answer, so they're a great way to work through perfectionism. After a few easier lessons, you'll be surprised how confident you get!
How often do you make new lessons?
I try to put out a new lesson almost every week!
Do lessons require parental supervision?
Younger kids might want your support getting setup for their first few lessons, but most students can paint on their own after a lesson or two.

I have an account, but I can't see lessons
Sign out, then sign back in with your current Art With Lauren account email or mobile number. If neither works, contact us and include the email you used for your purchase so we can help find your family's account.
My memberships page isn't loading
This can happen for two reasons and is very easy to fix!
#1 You may be signed into a different Art With Lauren family. Sign out, then sign back in with your current account email or mobile number. If neither works, contact us and include the email you used for your purchase.
#2 If you registered through a partner program (Classwallet, Odyssey, your Charter school, etc), your membership will be active for the dates you signed up for, but it might not show up under "my memberships" since you didn't sign up directly on the website.
Help with 6-digit code
When you sign in, Art With Lauren sends a 6-digit code to the email or mobile number you entered. Check the full destination on the code screen to make sure it is correct.
If the code does not arrive, use the resend or email option shown on the screen. You can also go back and try another account email or mobile number. Make sure autocomplete did not enter someone else's information.
