The MASTER PACKAGE includes two full length demos and the additional video: .

, is where I really elaborate and completely show you my own special method of painting rocks. It is essential to understand their form, shape and proportions so you can have remarkable success. I will show you light affects and where to place proper edges so your rocks look like . I will explain the importance of having color temperature and value shifts. Once you watch this training, I truly believe with practice you will enjoy painting rocks and want to add them into your landscapes. 

, is a great video where I combine these two wonderful subjects into one painting. Often painters have problems simplifying these difficult shapes in nature but I will show you it is not as hard as it seems.

I will show you how to capture the essence of rocks and the distant receding mountains with ease. I will cover some basic principles to my approach and share with you my color palette. Then I will explain how and when to use hard edges and soft edges to engage the viewer. Show you why rocks have to have certain elements in them to make them look and appear as a hard surface. With mountains, I will explain my color combinations and philosophies regardless if you paint the Rocky Mountains or just distant hills in your own home town.

Then to this is where I demonstrate and talk you through 3 separate paintings. I show each step of the process to completion all while explaining why and how it happens. (see the paintings above right)

BONUS
Painting from Nature - En Plein~Air

Painting and drawing from direct observation is one of the most important things an artist can do for his or her own growth. I often paint from life to have a deeper understanding of how and why things work. When I was a young painter I just wanted to paint. I did not see like an artist. Through self-discipline I made a huge point to paint outside a lot. I knew from past master landscape artists that it was the only way to improve my works on color and value.

In this 60 minute video By the end, I hope you will be inspired to paint outside and enjoy the process from nature.

ADDED BONUS
Simplifying your Greens in the Landscape

In this video I will explain how to approach greens in the landscape. To often painters buy premixed greens because they are either pretty or someone said they should have them on their palette when painting the landscape. I believe this gets you in trouble. Greens in the landscape lean toward warm or cool and sometimes anything in between. This makes them rather tricky, but not impossible to master. From years of painting outdoors, I have learned how to control my greens and capture them in natural light. I cover in detail, simplifying your palette, hue vs natural pigment, keeping colors clean, bringing sunlight into your painting, brushwork & edges, refining, and focal point.
