  1. Thanks so much from a beginner in Montréal! I’m doing watercolors, but still learned a lot from Bill – and from Eric’s questions – about values. ,-)
    I had hoped to register for Eric’s Fall painting workshop near Saranac Lake, but with this whole pandemic & border situation I’m not even planning to hike in the High Peaks & Crawford Notch areas this year… And that’s a trip my husband & I have been doing since our ADK hiking honeymoon over 25 years ago!
    We’re ot sure the whether the US government is going to recognize our mix of vaccines (e.g. I got the AstraZeneca first, then Pfizer) in time for any travel this year.

  2. great concept with underlying transparent black tonal to start, then if shapes and values work, add color.
    going to try it out
    thanks
