Feeling dependent on the videos...

In the beginning, you're likely to feel quite dependent on the tutorial videos. 

Often members will watch a video all the way through and then re-watch it and paint along at the same time, pausing the video when they need to. 

As you progress through the tutorials and learn Anna's method and the techniques, you'll find that you'll become less dependent on the videos and you'll start doing some of the painting on your own after watching the video through. 

An important part of the learning process is to try to build on what you learn in the tutorials. The Practice Pics give you what you need for doing this. They also allow you to see how you get on without any instruction! You just need to trust the method and the rest will follow. 

Working through the Courses will help you to challenge yourself and take small steps outside your comfort zone.

Have a read of this blog post of Anna's, which explains how painting along with her in the tutorials is helping to build up 'procedural memory' which will help you when you come to paint solo projects.
