I've jumped up a tier with my painting after watching just 4 or 5 of your tutorials. I really appreciate what your doing as a teacher and as a painter. Thanx dude. Leicester Square in London is pronounced Lester Square btw, and the statue on the fountain is Eros.

15 minutes .........naughty boy!!!! lol That was an awesome demonstration. Really showed the benefits of doing things with a timer making you get to the meat of the subject with less fuss. It also kind of suits the more abstract style. Many thanks.

Love the way you paint. Hope I can relax enough to be able to paint like this. Can only try! And doing it at speed like this might help . Thanks for the inspiration!

My favorite part is ur self constructed critique at the end. Don't get me wrong. I love ur whole instruction template, but I believe the self analysis is how we grow as art creators. Thank u, again, for ur time.

Another great demo. Speeding up the painting process is sort of like plein air, reducing excess detail, paint layers and brush strokes. Thank you for sharing your great skills, I have to try more of this.

This is Piccadilly Circus, and the statue - commonly thought to be Eros (Greek god of love) - is actually Eros's brother Anteros.

I love that you can get a whole scene done in 10 minutes, but I’m very sad that you lose the best part of the scene, which were the sunset colors. I think if everything else was gray, and at least the sky was a wash of yellow ochre, quin magenta, and ultramarine blue, this would’ve been a much prettier painting.
