  • If you are ordering from outside of Florida, you don't pay sales tax anyway. If you are ordering from a school, I will absorb the sales tax. So either way, the price to you is $49.95 plus $5. for shipping. (I ship Priority Mail in the US for 2 day delivery). You can order with PayPal from my site: cfsvideo dot net/Newsite and leave off the sales tax.

    Thanks in advance for the order.

  • The video can be sent almost anywhere in the world, but is available in only English. If there were enough demand for it in another language, it can be done, but so far, this is the first request.

  • I've been painting/drawing all my life and I am currently a junior at my high school New World School of the Arts and I would like to ask a quick question as a fellow artist. What colors are you using to get your skin tones. Mine always come out as a orange and even when I mix in some cools to tone it down, it doesn't seem to work. I would appreciate any feedback. -Devin

  • @devinSG Mix 2 parts Yellow Ocher with 1 part Cadmium Red Light. Start adding white to get stages up to your lightest skin values. Break off some of the middle tone and add small amounts of Sap Green for the cooler shadow areas. Break off some more middle tone and add Burnt sienna for the warmer shadows. This should get you going in the right direction. Then look for other cool and warm colors in the subject. Experiment.

  • This reeeally helped me for my art practical! AWSUM!

  • @thumbelina281 Check out another one of my YouTube videos, "Anatomy of a Portrait" for a little more instruction.

  • @irudley Hello. I am a high school teacher and would love to purchase your 'How I did it" dvd. Our school district is very strict about any purchase being tax free. Do you charge tax? Can you do a tax exempt charge?

    Thanks. Lara

  • hello !! I saw your you Tube videos and I am some questions. Does the video "how I did it" have subtitules in espanish? .can you send me the video to Mexico?

  • nicework thx for teaching us:)

  • @thumbelina281 You reeeally should get my DVD titled "How I Did It". There is about ten times the information on the DVD than you got out of the 4 minute version of that DVD.

    I'm not allowed to put the address for my site in this reply, but you can see it on any of my YouTube videos.

    Happy painting.
