This is an interesting video that offers great information on cityscapes! Fresh palette, and new interpretations of the scene. Easy to learn from Michele, took her time and explained what her decisions were based on. Very exciting paint applications as well.

Just what I’ve been looking for on creating an impressionist painting. Michele explains the process from planning through completion with many great tips along the way. I appreciate seeing the entire painting process with no fast-forwarding. You can always expect the highest quality DVD from Bella Muse Productions. Can’t wait to start painting!

Great video! Michele demonstrates how to “simplify” complicated scenes. Nicely done. Good, clear explanations and easy to follow along. The source photo is always beside the painting, making it easy to understand what the artist “sees”; what to put in the painting and what to eliminate, as well as color choices. Great close-up camera angle, it’s as if I am looking over her shoulder the entire time. Nothing lost in filming. Color palette always on screen showing color mixing. Michele gives helpful tips and advice throughout the video. I like how she presents the information in a calm and professional manner. Nice close-up views of her painterly brushstroke application, and I enjoyed watching how she handles figures in this scene. Very painterly and loose. By the end of the video I felt like walking right into those streets of Barcelona. Highly recommended.

How fortunate for us that Michele is willing to share tips and techniques that took her many years to develop. I saw improvement in my painting immediately after putting some of her ideas to work. Her teaching style is clear and interesting. Having a split screen in the DVD showing both the reference photo and the palette as she worked was very helpful. I have watched the lesson several times and have learned something each time. This is an excellent, high value DVD from Bella Muse Productions.
