Description: I have completed 6 of the MJS online tutorials - my subscription ends shortly. I felt this would be a great opportunity to find out how much I learned on the MJS online school by "flying solo" on this painting. In effect, this is my "final exam" before moving on to other things. This is a 12 x 16 panel, painted with W&N Griffin Alkyds. I have been painting with oils for only 6 months - I owe all of my progress to Michael - what a great teaching system! I painted with acrylics for about one year prior to starting the online school. I became increasingly frustrated with skies and water and searched for a system that allowed better blending and more realism - I found Michael on YouTube and said to myself...."this looks like the ticket to success". I learned a lot and look forward to increasing my abilities with each painting.
