Review this video!
In this video, the artist starts the painting with a neutral wash over which he loosely brushes the position of his sitter. In the beginning he explains what it means to be a portrait painter, the difficulties, objectives and purposes. He is always full of anecdotes and insights into the painting process, making this total demonstration video that much more enjoyable. From the loose drawing, Silverman rethinks the figure's position and correct the size. He makes one feel totally comfortable about making corrections. You can see every stroke that is made, every color used clearly, and listen to what this artist is thinking.

BRAVO! A TRUE MASTER... Watching Burton paint is exhalarating & inspiring! He moves about the canvas applying paint in his own unique way that produces a fresh and unique piece of art that inspires me to keep painting and hoping that someday I too can have the same confidence to make changes midstream and deliberately chose what I want to include in a piece versus what society dictates should be in a painting! Thank you Thank You - You are a delight to watch and I would rent anything else that you chose to do in the future!

Very good, very informative. I really like the way Burt paints with absolute freedom.
I learned a lot from this dvd. Mr. Silverman really explains things well and his technique is a bit different that what I have seen from other artists but is quite good. I enjoyed it a lot.
I thought it was really good in that it makes you feel that you can paint in any way that works for you and you don't have to follow a certain rule pattern. You can change your mind and your plan pretty much at anytime.
