Just watching the repay Feb 25, 2022. I just want to say, "WOW!" I just had a "lightbulb" go on! The most frustrating thing for me as an amateur artist, is trying to find peace and joy in my work. I tend to find my self tense and worried about whether things are in proper proportion. What an epiphany! I can create my own ideas of perspective and still create a work of art that makes me happy and proud. Instead of considering my variations as mistakes, I am now, because of this video, ready to explore allowing myself the freedom to just think of it as uniquely ME! thank you so much, Jeff>>>

Just caught the replay and signed up for Jeff's mini workshop. I love the idea of urban sketching and want to get out there and sketch and paint but I let the overwhelm of capturing everything to be paralyzing to my efforts I love Jeff's approach and appreciate his willingness to share with other hobby artists like me!

Loved this video and this style, thank you Jeff Carter. I just wanted to drop in a quick warning that Daniel Smith's Moonglow is not lightfast as stated by the company, just in case anyone is thinking of hanging up their paintings using it. It contains a pigment - PR177 - that is only lightfast in dense quantity (as in oils or acrylics) but becomes fugitive when water is added. See Kimberly Crick's tests and videos for more detailed information. Hope that helps avoid any heartache for beginners. Happy painting!
