I signed up for this Craftsy course a while back, which went through the intricacies of painting on pictorial art quilts. There were two class projects to work on and this was the second one (the first still needing quilting).
I really enjoyed this class and found it very useful as I really do not know about brush strokes, shading, ways of thickening fabric paint etc. There are 15 lessons which total 6 hours of classes. Annette's quilts are very inspiring when you see what a difference painting on them makes. On the negative side, I think the class should have been edited down to a more manageable size as you do spend a lot of time literally watching paint dry! The regular price is $39.99, but Craftsy always has classes on sale, so just wait until it is a more reasonable price of $15-20.
This is one of the two class projects I undertook, using their pattern. This is how the project looked at the beginning.
