Painting progress slideshow - 2nd attempt
Okey dokey....I'm trying this again since it seems that some of you are having problems viewing the video from the link I put in yesterday's last post. I'd love to get some feedback on this new piece. :) I'm hoping to finish it up today and maybe start another piece too....I've got several backgrounds that I started a few months ago that are beggin' to be finished. ;) :D
Oh and this is the first time I'm using the new video intro I put together at the beginning of the summer. Little did I know it would take me this long to get to use it! LOL!
High quality version of latest video & online classes update

Click To Play
Good morning y'all! Here's a bigger and higher quality version of my last video. You'll need the Quicktime player to view it. When you click on it, a new player will open in a pop up window....go ahead and click play and then pause it. Let it load for a little bit before you hit play again, otherwise the video will stop and start. This version is at a higher resolution that the YouTube version, therefore the file size is much larger and will take more time to load. I think it'll be worth the wait though. ;) This is more along the lines of the quality of the videos you'll be getting in my online classes....and actually they'll be even better because they are not sped up and I have the camera right beside me while I'm demonstrating and explaining what I'm doing. It'll be like you're standing in my studio and looking right over my shoulder! Pretty great, huh? :D
Speaking of my online classes, I'm getting ready to post the first class supply list to the private class blog in a little while so if you're signed up for the backgrounds class that starts on February 18th be on the lookout for an email from me later today. I've been getting emails asking if there's any room left in the classes....there's still some room left in both the backgrounds class and the faces class, but at the rate people are signing up I may have to close class sign ups soon....especially for the backgrounds class. Once I close class sign ups, I will take the payment buttons down off of the online classes page. So if you still see the payment buttons, then sign ups are still open. :)
Well I'd better get a movin'....so much to do today and Aiden's home sick from school. Poor guy been coughing his head off all morning....and as all you moms know, it's even harder, if not impossible, to get things done when you've got a sick little one to look after.
Mixed Media Portrait - Episode Three (new video series)
So finally.....here's the last installment of my "Mixed Media Portrait" series. First I'll show you the finished painting since the pics at the end of the video don't give you much time to really look at all the details. Be sure to check down below the video in this post for close ups. Thank you all sooooo much for all your support and comments! I read each and every comment and email and haven't had time to respond to each one individually...but please do keep leaving comments and sending emails. I truly appreciate each and every one! Each time I get a new comment or email it makes my day a little brighter and all the work on I do on these videos worthwhile!! Y'all are just the best!!! :D
Oh and both this original painting and prints will be available in my Etsy shop in the next few days, so be on the lookout. I'll be sending info on the exact date and time of the next shop update to my mailing list subscribers, along with a chance to reserve and buy items before they go live in the shop. There will be at least two new original paintings (including this one) and several new prints in the next shop update. :)

Mixed Media Portrait - Episode Two (new video series)
As promised, here's the second episode in my new series.....and actually on Tuesday this time!!! Yea!! ;) The last episode will be posted next Tuesday, February 5th. Oh and I'm planning on posting detailed info on my online classes later on this week, so please do check back in if you're interested in learning more....or you could join my mailing list to make sure you get the info as soon as it's available. Once you enter your email addy, you'll have the option to sign up for my "Online Class Information" list, as well as my monthly newsletter. :) I keep my lists private and I don't send out a bunch of emails, so rest assured that I won't be filling up your inbox. ;)
Thanks soooooooo much for all the comments y'all left for me on the first episode!!! And I'm so tickled to hear you guys are excited about the classes too!!! Y'all are awesome!!! I decided to keep things as simple as possible, so I will be setting up a private blog where the classes will be conducted from. This is where you'll have access to all the class info, videos, handouts, etc. once you've sent your payment and the classes begin.
Oh and I'm gonna try my best to get caught up on emails/messages this week...I'm waaaaaaaaaay behind. Thanks for being so patient and understanding. Love you guys!!! xoxo
