Hi, I’m Dionne!

I’m a full-time artist and creative business coach in Oklahoma and I help creatives define and amplify their unique points of view through workshops, coaching, and online tutorials. Check out my YouTube channel for my latest painting demonstrations.

About Me

Hi, I’m Dionne Woods! I live in Oklahoma City, OK with my husband, Matt, our two sons Holden and Elijah and our dog, Abbie. As an artist, I’m known for my signature layering and blending techniques (#DoTheDionne) that I use to create one-of-a-kind furniture and canvases. I pour the love and joy I feel when I’m painting into each and every colorful piece! Recently, I’ve made art a part of everyday life by turning my most popular designs into statement accessories.

As a mentor, I combine expert advice that can only come from years of experience and a huge social media following with a positive, empowering approach to provide truly actionable steps and a whole lot of fun.

When I’m not working on my latest piece, I’m eating pizza, making new friends, or out watching my boys play baseball.

🚨 New blog alert! 🚨 Did you catch Monday’s live paint video #PAINTTALK? I gave one of my favorite makeovers a makeover of its own! While painting the piece, I noticed that one of my most-used techniques is also one of the easiest ways to freshen up a piece you already love. And, of course, I wrote a blog about it! Check the comments for the details about the blog and watch the live below to hear more about color washes (plus we play a few rounds of “what do you see?” with my latest abstract pieces!).

Why You Should Try Painting Outside

If you’ve followed me for some time then you’ve probably noticed that I like to shake things up a bit when I paint! Whether that means flipping a piece of furniture upside down or turning my canvas around, I like to get a new perspective on things. Lately Painting...
