I did a webinar today with @marathonpress and it was so incredibly awesome I had to share it with you all! I did four videos showing me painting with acrylic paint on my digital painting printed on canvas. We had over 50 people watching and for the first time combined live webinar with slides and me chatting live with recorded video. It was incredibly AWESOME and the good news is even if you never signed up and missed this ground breaking event you can still get it! I showed digital files versus the painted final paintings. I had fun…I was stupid, I was just “ME” and you get to see it ALL! You can register and buy the video HERE
On another note…if you missed the awesome marketing TELESUMMIT where I give away huge secrets to being a financially successful photographer or artist and how to use Facebook correctly ( you ARE doing it WRONG…just admit it already!)…then until Friday you can buy it HERE!
Don’t yell at me for promoting the BEST info at the best prices. REALLY I don’t have time to do this every day. I want everyone to be successful and HAPPY!
Every August for the past few years I have been asked to teach at the Niagara School of Imaging in St. Catherines, Ontario, Canada. This is the a fantastic, well run, fun school to be at! Everyone in my workshops there always has a great time learning Corel Painter and goes home with a fully hand embellished painted canvas print!

Here’s a little clip from it: “Portrait Painting:
The greatest challenge is not learning to use Corel Painter 11 software, it is in the artists struggle to paint portraits and create their own style of portrait painting. There are those that would like to be Picassos and paint the paintings as mere references to the physical person, but more often than not the photographers struggle is to balance themselves on that thin line between looking “too photographic” and attempting to have the portrait still be “painterly”.
