Oh I loved your mastering values lessons. You explained everything so well. Now I take time to do value studies before attempting to paint a subject. Looking forward to learning more from you. 😊

Hello, Kris. I found your presentation of the concept of values in painting -- a subject I had only an inkling of -- to be clear, complete (including helpful download-ables) and easy to follow. You've helped me understand a process of simplifying overwhelming complexity and in the process instilled a bit more confidence. Thank you!
