What I'm working on. (Patreon)

Hi everyone,

A few weeks ago, some of you mentioned on Discord how fun it would be to see Dom paint for the first time. So, we made it happen 🥳. He had never painted in any medium before, and we worked on a painting of a little wren together. In case you missed it, we uploaded the video on YouTube.

Dom painted really well, but one aspect stood out to me – his hesitancy with the brush due to a lack of good brush control. It became clear to me that brush control is a skill that develops with practice, and I realised that, having painted for so long, I often take this ability for granted.

So, at the moment I'm working on a tutorial that delves into fundamental brush techniques. These techniques are essential for gaining better brush control, a skill often overlooked by experienced artists. The tutorial aims to bridge this gap, offering tips and exercises to help beginners refine their brush control. I hope it will help you if you are just starting out. I’ll post it when it’s ready.

Many of you asked me if I'd post a tutorial of the three goldfish that I painted a few months ago. I'm happy to let you know that I painted another one and filmed it all so I'm making a tutorial of this painting below.

I also have this black cockatoo tutorial that I'm working on.

This colourful Eastern Rosella below will also be a tutorial.

I have a long list of subjects that patrons have suggested to me. I'll keep working my way through those that I can.
