Review this video!
The temptation to render everything in the painting equally is the downfall of many beginning painters. Choosing a center of interest implies that you are making some objects more important than others in the setup. The roses in this arrangement are compelling and beautiful, but they are not the center of interest. I chose the dolls to be the focus of this composition, so the challenge is to paint the flowers with enough veracity that the viewer will understand what they are, but not to take attention away from the real subject, the dolls. Sometimes the best paintings are defined by what is not painted, rather than by what is.

This is a very nice lesson on painting roses. This DVD is well explained and easy to follow. You can paint roses much easier after watching this lesson. I recommended. She is great.

I really enjoyed this video. She does a tremendous job of narrating the video, explaining how and why she does everything. I will be renting more of her videos!
Johnnie Liliedahl is an excellent teacher. Her ability combined with the skillful production of this video as well as her others resulted in an exceptionally valuable teaching tool for artist from novice to experienced.
I always love watching Johnnie Lilledahl and her videos are fantastic. She explains everything in good understandable language. I would like to see more floral painting from her. Thank you!
