Marc, this was very inspiring and impressive. You have great patience in getting the details just right, and I think this was my main take-away from the video—slow down and get it right. Thanks for all your hard work with the videos. It is almost as good as being in one of your workshops. Maybe better.
- Do you dedicate one brush to light mixtures and another for dark colors.
-The little red thing on left side of palette, is that a scraper rather than razor holder?
-6Under the disposable palette, do you have a dampened paper towel to keep the palette a bit moist? Your tricks for keeping acrylics from drying too quickly.
Tip: with today’s viewing where your palette is in the scene, it was more difficult to see your paining, so while I was viewing on my iPad, I grabbed a hand held magnifying glass. Voila,I could zoom the size of you painting 20-30% larger. It worked great.
Thanks Marc. This was great. I learned a great deal. It was kinda funny toward the last- I really wanted to see you work on the grassy foreground. I have so much trouble with grasses. Finally you slap dashed in with various strokes here and there and it was done. Magic! Can't wait to see more. Would like to see some demos with mostly sky being featured.
Another lesson I learned from the demos. My compositions contain shapes which are in some ways boring. I will try to compose paintings with shapes that are more interesting and circular. Thank you!
Watching how this piece turned out is so inspiring. To see all the care you put into giving your trees their character; and the subtle shifts in temperature in the sky. Loved it.
Loved how you warmed up or cooled down the tree trunks depending on the surroundings. I am going to do that on the price I am working on now but will have to wait until more of it is done. Thank you for this!! I am learning so much.

And more grass of course.
Great demo Marc. What brush are you using to draw in the branches? Looks like you have a nice chisel edge.
