Finally! An artist who works from sketches and doesn't just copy reference photos!! It was hard to tell at some points whether I was watching an artist or a magician...

Beautiful demonstration and insight talk.Tony is a such a wonderful person, spontaneous and funny. I am also impressed he is doing the framing and I tried to get the name of the glass he purchases but the sound is distorted right there. Do you know it?

[@ElizabethBattle]

I believe he said ARglass, or anti-reflective glass.

[@incognito3620]

The pins holding the paper seem to stand away from the surface. I can hitting them with my fingers or palm. He hits them After on. See tape behind is much better.

[@Winebibbler]

When you begin the sky, are you using two pastels side by side as the color looks like a light blue and dark blue.
