The best part is watching her customers walk away with something they are proud of! Ashley has a degree in Fine Art from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities where she specialized in large-scale oil paintings. Ashley also paints professionally for brands including Blue Moon Brewing and Captain Morgan.
Questions about what to expect, what’s included, and how it all works.
Yes — Bright Northern Night is designed to be achievable at any experience level. Ashley walks you through every step with clear pacing, and because it's on-demand you can pause whenever you need a moment to catch up. Most of our viewers have never picked up a brush before.
Ashley is one of the Paint Nite artists who teaches on camera for our on-demand library. 8 out of 8 guests who've painted with Ashley say the instruction was amazing. Karen D. said: 'Ashley is the best painting instructor I’ve had—if you pay attention, you can create a painting you’ll be amazed by!'
Bright Northern Night is a winter painting — cozy seasonal vibes for a great night out.
Yaymaker is Paint Nite. We brought both brands together under the Paint Nite name — same artists, same paintings, same format we invented in 2012. More than 10 million tickets have been sold across both brands combined. If you bought Paint Along videos under the Yaymaker name, you're in the right place.
On-Demand is Paint Nite at your own pace. You buy access once, then watch the full step-by-step painting video whenever and wherever you want over six months. Ashley narrates every step, and because it's pre-recorded you can pause, rewind, and re-watch as much as you need.
Six months from the date of purchase. That's enough time to come back, paint a second canvas, share it with a friend, or take your time over several sittings.
You'll need a 16x20 canvas, acrylic paints (white, black, and the colors used in Bright Northern Night), brushes, an apron, and water for rinsing. Paint Nite home kits are designed to match — they include everything in one box. Home kits are currently sold out while we restock; they'll be back soon.
Yes — pause, rewind, slow down, re-watch. The video plays in your browser like any other on-demand video. Ashley's pace is set for a live class, so most people pause at least a few times to keep up. That's exactly how it's meant to be used.
Roughly two hours of step-by-step painting. With pauses and re-watches, most people finish in two-and-a-half to three hours. You don't have to do it in one sitting — your six-month access lets you split it up however you like.
Six months of access to the full step-by-step painting video for Bright Northern Night, narrated by Ashley. Supplies are not included — see "What supplies do I need?" above. Paint Nite home kits (when back in stock) include the matching supplies.
On-demand purchases are non-refundable. Because access is delivered immediately, we're not able to issue refunds the way we can for cancelled in-person events. If something goes wrong with your access or playback, contact support and we'll make it right.
