Your paintings are beautiful!  I truly enjoy learning from you. Now a quick question: A lot of the time I have to stop painting in the middle of a picture, after about a week I can go back to it so what do I do to make it wet again without putting clear liquid on it? It is usually too dry to just start painting and too wet to wipe liquid clear on it.

@sherryp47 if its a sky you must finish while wet but for trees and bushes grass you can use a tiny amount of linseed oil then a small amount of oil pant over that then its all wet again i do it all the time you can see this in silence and solitude

I have been thinking about trying to paint and have been trying to gain the confidence, After watching a lot of your videos I tried my very first painting and it actually turned out decent for the very first attempt. I can not wait to try another and watch more of your videos for more techniqes Thank you so much for your videos Are you an art instructor? Your paintings are beautiful. I THINK YOU ARE SO CUTE TOO! Sorry but I JUST

nice one, it sounds like the wet on wet works for you and im sure you can progress.

i am an art instructor but i cant teach any more, i recently found out that i have a brain tumor so i dont teach anymore.

i do loads of painting coz i love it, and i hope to inspire as many people as possible.

you sound cool, thanks for the comment you made me feel young again lol c ya from mick

yeh the dark trees were done with gesso left to dry then i put liquid white on the sky area then i blend it down over the trees.

you must put liquid clear over the gesso then apply your base colour over the liquid clear with oil colour.

i hope this helps bud take care from mick

Very generous of you to put so much sweat into a comprehensive series. Question about the dark silhouettes that are already on the canvas as the curtain goes up on Part 1 -- is this black gesso? Also, are the light portions covered with liquid white?
