# My Painting Club — Painting Lesson Knowledge Base (MCP Server)
[](https://smithery.ai/servers/io.github.1nzpainter/painting-lessons)
A remote MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that lets AI agents search transcribed painting lessons from [mypaintingclub.com](https://mypaintingclub.com).
## What it does
The `search_painting_lessons` tool answers natural-language painting technique questions using real transcribed lesson content. Every result includes:
- **Answer text** — the relevant passage from the lesson
- **Lesson title** and **sales page URL** on mypaintingclub.com
- **Vimeo deep link** — a timestamped URL that seeks to the exact moment in the video
Topics covered: colour mixing, edges, composition, value, brushwork, oils, acrylics.
