I think Ginger lost her Mic in this last segment fyi … nevertheless a beautiful masterpiece … will paint as a gift for my husband he loves it
Annette, yes, once again, we had mic issues, but the content was just too good to cut out! Thanks for the compliment.
No speed painting. I want to see every brush stroke Ginger. It’s an amazing tutorial!
Fantastic camera tracking,!
Thank you, Sally. It’s not always very easy to keep track of Ginger’s movements!
I love, love this! I know it takes a long time to do, but for me, that is the way I learn by watching! Thanks you so much for an absolutely beautiful painting! I think it is my favorite so far, even better than the old dead guys!
I appreciate the more challenging lesson that this provides. I believe it is better for Ginger to paint on an easel for these larger pictures so this format for shooting is good. As mentionedby Jon there are some bugs to work out, such as Ginger losing her microphone for a while making it very difficult to hear what she is saying. I look forward to giving this lesson a try.
