    I am so glad I didn’t listen to the comment that said you didn’t show any techniques. This was packed with useful information! I very much enjoyed your demo. I thought it beautiful and inspiring… one of the best examples I’ve seen of how to paint more loosely and not get caught up in all the details. Will definitely save this to my Watch Later playlist to watch again and again.

Forward to today at the age of 51 I'm trying to figure out how to bring my art to a different level. This is an excellent video. Thank you very much for the free information.

    thank you.... I have 5 or more paintings that could be good but I'm bored with them, the fire went out and I'm on to others. Painting faster of course is now my goal. I painted plein air one day and finished a painting in 1.5 hrs outside and about 30 minutes indoors for touchup. I like it more than most I done. I was forced to work fast before the shadows changed etc.

    Though we have quite different styles, I appreciate seeing your truly skilled process. Where you lose me / leave me behind is when you tell of your sales success, because from where I and every one of the dozens of artists that I know personally sit, you have enjoyed a rare bit of well deserved good fortune. Others like me are working in a sort of desert and or are lost unseen amidst many many thousands of other painters. You were seen and had the opportunities and skills and drive to make it. I'm glad for you. Honestly. You have earned your success and it honors you that you want to share it with other artists. Bless your generous heart. But that doesn't change the simultaneous, shall we say, "obscurity problem" that many of your viewers will continue to struggle with. But THANKS for the interesting and inspiring lesson. Long may your many blessings continue. XO

    Is it really possible to achieve this level of marketing success off the bat alone? Most artists i know that are making money and building a body of work, have an intern or pay someone to run their site, edit their content, distribute their material, etc. I dont know one person who did it all by themselves without someone else helping with prints or responding to emails. Business is not a one man show. The most successful sales people i know have people helping.
