New Lesson 'Winter Retreat' Just Released

This scene is fascinating; what I love about it is the contrast between light and dark, as well as warm and cool colours.

There are many interesting elements in this lesson, offering a variety of creative challenges to improve your abilities and techniques. I will show you the methods I use to achieve fine detail without making the process too arduous.

In this 11 part tutorial I will guide you through the various stages from blocking in to adding the intricate details.

I can imagine going for a lovely walk in the fresh crisp snow, wrapped up against the cold then returning to this cosy cabin for a hot chocolate in front of an open fire watching the snow falling outside! Bliss!

I hope you enjoy this lesson as much as I did!

Happy painting!
