I have never used oil paints and whilst my result is not perfect David’s suggestions, but also reassurances, that whatever happens is fine kept me going and I am quite pleased and definitely going to try something else.
Response from The Old Kennels:
Thank you Susan, not only the the kind review, but also for sharing your first very beautiful oil painting with us! You should be very proud of what you have achieved and I really hope you are inspired to keep going now! Davids next video Glorious Glazes is now also available to view!A highly enjoyable video, David, thank you! I found the 'don't be precious' approach very liberating as it can be such a pitfall when painting. I also warmed to David's down to earth style of teaching, it has a meditative quality about it. Intuitive abstract landscape painting speaks to me so I look forward to more online painting videos by David.

Thank you so much for your kind review! We are so pleased you enjoyed your course, there are more online courses being added all the time and we hope to be able to welcome people back again in person very soon!I thoroughly enjoyed this course and definitely recommend it to anyone.
I checked the link early and ordered a few pencils in and made sure I had some paper etc. around the house before I sat down to start. I spent a few hours on a rainy Sunday sketching in the company of the lovely tutor via pre-recorded video and I loved it.
The course provides written instructions, extra details and the pre-recorded video that you can stop, rewind and re-play as many times as you need. I have never done anything quite like this and I was genuinely pleased with what I produced, even though I didn't think for one minute I would be. If you're not sure, just give it a go!
