I rank Helen Yancy right there with Jeremy Sutton in Painter tutorials. By the time you watch her 2nd and then 3rd tutorial in this dual DVD set, you will make the connection on her technique--which is a bit different, though as effective, as Sutton's. Once you see the thread of her Painterly-thinking, you can stop the DVD and start painting.
I watched them all the way through, simply inspired, put it down and repeated great results. Thank you, SmartFlix.
As she said at one point "you don't have to be a painter to do this" and that really allows both Pro & Novice users to hop on the program and drive it as they see fit.
This is the 2nd rental now for me with SmartFlix and I have to say I'm a real believer in the company's ability to choose professionals who can walk the walk.
Expanded Portraits is a wholly different approach of techniques and one that is very good to know. Getting a very broad sense of know-how in Painter after seeing 3 different artists has really changed my narrow approach to artistry within the program. I can't imagine what I will learn next, but I hope to find someone who does sketchy pencil because that is a nice feel.
This DVD set is a must have. Each DVD is parceled into several chapters, letting you stop and pick up later.
