  • Today I want to show you how you can create breathtaking depth in your paintings by using my simple approach for layering. This video will remove the confusion and simplify the layering process for you, giving you confidence in your painting process next time you approach the easel.
    The tools I use in the video are a Princeton brand Silicone wedge, and a #10 filbert brush. A little glazing liquid is mixed into my paint when I work on the sky.

    Hi there from the Pacific Northwest. I just ordered the Princeton size 6 silicone white catalyst and a KingArt 6500 size 10 filbert, and I already have glazing liquid for my skies. I tend to paint landscapes but when I happened upon your video here I loved your paintings! I've been wanting to try flowers and botanicals anyway but I wasn't thinking impressionist! Gorgeous work you do! Thank you for inspiring others to try this style!

      The wedge is not an easy tool to master. I always believe artists should have fun experimenting and trying new tools and techniques, but always seek to find their own style and what works for them, not copy others. When it feels natural to you, you will know you have found your style.

      Hi there! If you are asking what colors I use in the "Hydrangeas Gardens" course, there are downloadable PDFs of the supply lists included with each demo, and also they are mentioned in the subtitles on the screen.
      The Facebook group is a FREE bonus I offer to my students, something many course creators do not offer, and something most students appreciate and respect. That is where to go to ask questions, find support and post your art. I am sure you can imagine how much time I would spend and how clogged my email inbox would be if everyone tried sending files and questions outside of the group. You can silence you Facebook notifications in your Settings...I have done so myself with all of my social media apps. Otherwise I would never get anything done.🙂 Hope that helps, and thanks!
