Learn how to paint with watercolors at a gentle pace and from a joyful place
In create by faith, you’ll learn how to paint with watercolors in a way that honors where you are on your creative journey, and you will have the support you need as you continue to grow in your skills. Whether it’s real time instruction, faith based inspiration, community with other christian women, or the ability to ask all your questions—we’ve got you covered here.
Hey there! I’m Courtney.
wife, mama to 3, and the low vision artist behind not by sight art.
As a self taught HOBBYIST turned professional watercolor artist, it is a joy to come alongside you as you learn how to express yourself creatively as an act of worship and as an image bearer of the master creator (Genesis 1). My goal is to teach you how to paint from a place of reflection and contemplation with an aim to meditate on scripture and connect with our god—not perfection.
Whether you’re a total beginner or you just want to breathe some fresh air into your creative practice, I hope you’ll join me in create by faith!
What can I expect with Create By Faith?
Gentle Watercolor Lessons
Each month you’ll RECEIVE bite sized video lessons designed to teach you watercolor techniques, help you deepen your understanding of watercolors, and—most of all—perpetuate the joy of picking up a paintbrush.
These lessons are designed with beginners in mind but will provide tips and tricks for watercolorists of any level.
Biblically Rooted Projects
Each month you will also gain access to a video lesson that walks you through a completed watercolor piece from start to finish.
These projects are created with different passages of scripture in mind and aim to help you put your new techniques into practice while keeping God’s Word as your focus and inspiration.
Encouragement from Scripture
Each month will also include a brief lesson of encouragement from the passage of scripture that inspired your art piece.
You’ll hear from courtney, the artist behind not by sight, as well as special guests as You continue to grow in your love for painting as an act of worship.

Once a month, courtney will host a live painting session, so you can learn in real time.
