To My Regular Droppers and Readers

pocket watchJust to let you know......I am having trouble keeping up with all of my blogs, as well as my personal life, and thus I have stopped accepting adverts on this blog for the time being.

Additionally, I will no longer be dropping from this blog, at least not until I manage to get things under control again, which may be quite a long while.

Thanks for all of your drops and comments! If I again begin dropping on this account, it will be because I am posting to this blog once again.

Best Regards,

I Teach Color Theory

Just to let you know, I teach color theory, and I am certified by Michael Wilcox*. So, if you have questions regarding use of color, color mixing, paint properties (oil is my primary medium but I am very familiar with acrylics and watercolors), archival qualities of commercially available colors, etc., please feel free to comment - - I love to talk color!

The image below is a bad photo of another value study, this one more carefully done. It was done as a study of the color "white", and everything in it is white, the exception being the maple tabletop. The values do not show very clearly in the photo, but you get the idea.

In the Beginning.....

floral painting Hmm.........where to start. This should probably be a private blog because I may just bore you to bloody tears without even trying. I do apologize in advance, because I decided to make this blog public, in part to earn ec credits for my other blogs¹, and in part because I do love feedback. In other words, because it is a purely selfish endeavor.

So, no secrets to tell, but I will be posting my drawings, sketchbook mess, etc., here. And, I may even throw in a  few tutorials for the novice painter, as well as reviews of my fav artists. Do visit often......I can't promise to update terribly frequently, but we'll see how it goes.
