Don't waist your time with a local station. You Tube is where it's at. You'll reach a bigger audience over time. I look forward to more of your video's.
I think I agree that maybe doing something further on in the course with colour - a landscape or beginning of a portrait - might have been more interesting and convincing. This lesson may have been too "dry" for a tv station. But the video is very good, Irv, you are so clear in what you teach. A great teacher. Don't give up!
It's rather specialized tv. I'm not sure how local TV is organized in the US but here we have pretty specialized broadcasters. Some years ago we had a series of tv painting classes that was very popular indeed. Beyond anything they did before.
Also; starting out with dots is a bit of a 'dry run'.... taking an except from a later lesson would be somewhat more inspiring to most non-artists and that is probably who you are trying to convince.
I guess I'm saying that one rejection is their loss. Another company will jump at this if you connect to a visionary in that company that sees the potential. This is good education TV. It most certainly deserves a place on national TV.
Thanks for the encouragement. I am looking at the possibility of producing short, about 10-15 minute, teaching videos to run periodically here on YouTube to download for a small fee, maybe 5 or 10 bucks per lesson. They would follow a planned course, as suggested in this video, to carry students from very basic drawing lessons all the way up to oil portraits. Right now it's just a thought.
Once again a great presentation, including, humor, exercise, training, learning skills and intelligence! Maybe that is not allowed on television? I think they should reconsider and look at the potential.. or better go to another TV station with a brighter view.. But never let this stop you, from doing what you want to do! Keep it coming Irv!!
It's probably not new. It's how I measure distances in space by using imaginary reference points on objects. This way I see and draw the shapes on a 2 dimensional plane that represent the 3 dimensional objects, thus creating the illusion of the third domension. To me, a nose is the same as a chair leg, just a bunch of shapes..
very nice way of teaching

Wow I would've really enjoyed watching this, so entertaining and straight to the point the network must be insane to turn this down.
