Alisha Winters

With a paintbrush in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other, I’ve spent the last 15 years transforming spaces and teaching others to do the same. My journey began in my father’s hardware store, where I developed an early fascination with color swatches and painting techniques.

After earning my degree in Interior Design from Rhode Island School of Design, I’ve worked on everything from historic home restorations to modern apartment makeovers.

As a certified color consultant and professional painter, I’ve helped countless homeowners breathe new life into their spaces.
My articles for Paint Answered combine my hands-on experience with my passion for making professional painting techniques accessible to everyone. When I’m not writing or painting, you’ll find me experimenting with new finishes in my home studio or teaching weekend workshops for DIY enthusiasts.

I believe every painting project is an opportunity to create something beautiful, and I’m here to help you navigate the journey with confidence. Let’s make your painting projects a success, one stroke at a time!
