Throughout the rest of September, I will be introducing all the teachers who are teaching in Radiant II. Yesterday, we met Chelle Stein! (Hint – You can still enter her giveaway, too!) TODAY IS OUR LAST DAY AND RADIANT II OPENS TOMORROW KERMIT FLAIL YEAH!!!!!
Along with the delicious introductions, you will have a chance to enter a drawing for one of FIVE seats in Radiant II. If you’ve already purchased a seat, you will have the option to a) give your prize to a friend or b) get a full refund. YAY!!!
Please read on to meet Wyanne Thompson, and later in the post you will find instructions on how to enter the giveaway!
Come back TOMORROW when I will announce the winners!!!
It’s Wyanne…like “Y-anne”….not Wayne…he’s my brother.
I’ve been a full time artist since 1997, and have been blessed to have my work in collections all over the world. My art has been licensed by Natural Life Inc. and several greeting card companies.
In late 2013, I was diagnosed with oral cancer. It was a shock, since I’m relatively young, eat healthy and never smoked. In January 2014, I underwent a 13 hour surgery in which my entire tongue was removed and 66 lymph nodes from my neck. After that, chemo and radiation, and an extremely difficult year long recovery process. I lost my ability to talk well and swallow. I take all my nutrition through a feeding tube.
Thankfully, I don’t have to talk to paint…and the whole process has taught me so much. Living in the moment and being grateful for every little thing.
Over a year later, I’m still cancer free! I’m painting more than ever…it’s the one thing the “Big C” couldn’t take away! I’m back to teaching online classes, and concentrating on larger paintings. Life is grand!

How do you ever pick anyone!! I just tweeted about your giveaway!!
Thank you and good luck to all of us.. I’m Aussie so our Aussie dollar makes your course even more expensive so it would be so much more a gift to receive free entry to enjoy all the talent and learning and beautiful offerings shared!!
Thank you also for offering “Radiant faces” for twenty dollars awhile back! You give struggling artists hope to learn and grow along with everyone else!!
You are all so amazing! Would love to win! !

I would so love to win a spot on Radiant II. I was part of Radiant I and saw my faces improve so much – and the line up of teachers, including yourself, for Radiant II looks fantastic.
Since am retired now on disability, I have to skip a lot classes that I would like to take. However, all my life I have wanted to be able to paint a pretty face. That said, I would be so very excited and over the moon with joy!
