It is a real privilege to have you as a Teacher . TYVM I am so looking forward to jumping in to the 2nd part of lessons and working my way through at my pace. TY Dianne.
Hi Dianne, I love this explanation. I can draw fairly well but angles and foreshortening are the devil! Armed with this information I will win this! I just ordered your book about rivers and can’t wait to get it. I will definitely be doing some studies. I bought a set of gouache to make value lines like you do because that just makes so much sense. I will probably just make bigger puddles of paint with my acrylics because I have a lot and they will just go to waste whether I use them or not. I wanted to study art when I went to college but my parents talked me out of it, which is why I appreciate your lessons so much. Thank you for sharing. Julie 🥰
Julie, sounds like you're headed in the right direction. Keep in mind that rather than focus on the image itself, focus on what the visual elements are doing within it. That is the key to seeing. Let me add here that my parents were totally against my studying art in college, so I took my first degree in English and music, taught high school for three years, then against their wishes, I went back to college for a second degree in painting and from there nothing could stop me. They eventually came around to me being me. Keep up the forward journey!
Thanks Dianne, for what you provide for other artists, it's much appreciated. I wanted to mention that your video on foreshortening was very good and explained very well, I really enjoyed it. I was wondering if you have something to share with us about preparing painting panels for painting. I like using gessoed panels without canvas attached but was wondering about oil priming those panels instead of gesso. Any tips you have would be great, thanks again.
Burtons Place, oil priming vs acrylic gesso priming is a controversial subject. If you do a RUclips search for priming panels, you'll find diverse attitudes and methods. Usually, though, oil primer contains lead and for that reason, I stay away from it. However, if you do want to oil prime, you'd want to seal the surface with rabbit skin glue first. One thing I'd like suggest is that you investigate Gamblin Ground ( www.gamblincolors.com/oil-painting/sizes-and-grounds ) as a good substitute for acrylic gesso. Hope this helps.
Nice perspective quick tip. Thank you! Could you do a quick tip on drawing/painting an ellipse? I am having trouble with the bottom of a flower bud vase laying down on it's side. Or do you have a video on them? Thank you!
Thanks a lot! Really good qt. This perspective thing always drives me crazy 😁. Can you continue this subject? As far as I know and you mentioned, on 2p every object has its own vps which are located on horizon line or eye level, but what about 3 points? If still we pick a 3rd point for each object will they form an imaginary sphere? Again back to 2p, by tilting the head in either direction everything will change. It's too complicated 😢
Mosio. The horizon line is always your vantage point, and from your vantage point, every PLANE has its own vanishing point on that horizon line. HOWEVER, by using the angle finder, all you need do is find the correct angle and you don't need to worry about any of the technical stuff. You see it!
More than just helpful- it’s a revealing of a long mystery time mystery and finally hilariously my eyes have opened. Made my day. Thank you.
Wonderful! Thanks for watching.

Thank you Dianne, I’m glad I’m not the only one that struggles to understand perspective 😅 you explained it perfectly.
Glad it was helpful! Have fun using it.
Wow Dianne! You have blown up the difficulty of perspective for me. Thank you so much!
Excellent!

Sounds great, I'll give that a try. Thanks.

Pam, I will put this on our schedule. Meanwhile, you might check out Quick Tip 103.
Thank you so much! I'll do that.
Thank You Dianne Once Again

I recently did a still life with books...and I got it a bit wrong :( I was not so accurate. It can be a bit tricky in fact.
When you follow what your eyes are seeing rather than what your mind thinks, you will get it right every time.
@@IntheStudioArtInstruction Yes! That I guess was the case.
