Make Your Own Canvas Panels

You can make your own canvas painting panels at a much lower cost than you can buy them pre-made. In my new video, I show you how to make (8) 16×20” and (4) 11×14” panels for a total cost of $50. All my videos are available for free viewing on my blog. Check it out and send me an email if you have any questions.  Watch the video: click

Learning Landscape Painting from Richard Schmid

I have been spending quite a bit of time lately learning from the renowned landscape painter Richard Schmid.  No, I have not personally studied with him, but I have read his two books and watched his four DVDs on landscape painting.  I am drawn to his style and I am fascinated by his philosophy and approach to landscape painting.  His books and DVDs are included in my online “library” and my comments can be viewed there.  To see these, go to http://homepage.mac.com/jmorreau/deliciouslibrary/.  Now I am in the much harder process of trying to actually do all the things I have learned!
