45. I wish it was on Youtube!

He has a lot of informative videos on Youtube but I paid for this one via Streamline Videos. It was on sale, but still pricey. Worth it for me, though--the right video at the right time. He's got some on his own website that cover the same process, and you can buy them in segments to see if they work for you instead of investing in the whole thing all at once. Or you could skip the drawing video and go right to the painting videos, saving yourself a little money. He's got previews of the videos on his Youtube channel.

I hope you do get around to that self-portrait! They're so convenient because hey, if you're available to paint you're available to model for yourself.

And thank you!
