Time-lapse of 2 hour demo
Added 2023-04-03 20:24:34 +0000 UTCOne of the benefits of using a time-lapse video demonstration is that it allows you guys to see the subject matter from a different perspective. Instead of just showing a real-time demonstration as usual, the time-lapse version can help highlight the key points and make them stand out.
I noticed I jump around a lot more than expected. This particular demonstration there was a lot of back and forth with the drawing so I guess that makes sense, if you are interested in seeing the whole version let me know. I may have to post it on a separate tier. For now, I recommend watching a few times and stopping the video along the way to contemplate staging of progression.

I see you already posted the whole version, I am still catching up after my travel, thanks again!
2023-04-06 00:50:19 +0000 UTCNice demo, thanks Michael! I would be interested in seeing the whole version at some point, it would be very useful, thanks!

2023-04-05 18:29:52 +0000 UTCWow. I love how this went from 2D to where it feels I could cup the rose in my hand and smell it. I would love to see the second half slowed up to painting speed if more also request it. Question : so did you put on oleogel and wipe off some of the background? I couldn’t tell with stopping and starting it again. Thanks again. #goals.
2023-04-05 17:25:57 +0000 UTCThis time it was for a variety of reasons, the two you mention as well as the fact that the darker underground made me have to pile on the paint and it was getting in my way as I got more accurate.

2023-04-03 22:10:54 +0000 UTCWow Michael, what a gorgeous painting. This rose looks like one I have a big bush of in my garden called the "Childrens rose" because it has hardly any thorns, flowers abundantly and has a gorgeous perfume. I love it. What is the board you are painting on? it looks great with the wood grain showing through
2023-04-03 21:49:24 +0000 UTCGreat demonstration Thank you
2023-04-03 20:55:03 +0000 UTCSpecial thanks to Kathleen Speranza for the amazing flower stand her husband made and gifted to me! It is a wonderful little tool that allows you to move the flower in a bunch of different positions. (not sure if they sell them or not)
