![]() Imagine, all this top class tuition was a fab free gift and I appreciate that. And, I must say a big thank you to Rod Moore of the Learn to Paint Academy see here. I really did enjoy the online learning and the end product. The Finished Painting The Creekįinally, after two more excellent sessions, I produced this thoroughly finished off gouache painting of a summer landscape in Australia. In my own defence, I am a self-taught artist and it’s good to get some proper tuition.

As you can see, I struggled with the ones in the middle. ![]() Despite knowing that it is a Good Thing to do ! Anyway, we concentrated on five tones between light and dark.

But I could take my time with it and that was much more doable. I’d like to tell you about the online learning that I’ve been spending time on these past two weeks.
