I recall many, many years ago taking an art history class on the Dutch Masters, expecting to learn so much about the splendid paintings. The professor spent at least 3/4 of the class showing slides and expounding on the virtues of Rembrandt’s multitudinous volume of landscape thumbnails. No matter how similar they were, each was unique. Not many students got a good grade in that class, but I’m proud to say that I aced it.😇

I've been painting for 5 years and have now reverted back to doing thumbnail sketches / paint swatches first. I made a template out of cardboard and can make a workspace on my sketch pad - 3 thumbnail frames, a mini painting frame and paint mixing areas. The time spent up-front is well worth the effort. Thanks for the help!

This was a really enjoyable and instructional video. I'm starting on landscape painting again after stopping for a while, and this was a great refresher on the basics. Thanks Chris!

Chris, your videos are amazing. So accessible and packed with tangible information that, when applied in practice, improves my paintings so much.

Just want to thank you. Real people are gaining so much from your videos, and when viable, I will always purchase your courses. THANK YOU.

When you use a craft notebook for studies, do you gesso the pages or just paint straight on the raw paper?

The general rule is "no two things alike". Especially for ojects in the focal area.

Thanks for a very useful video. Can I ask what printer you are using to print your reference photos? Thanks
