                Looking forward to it. In fact, I set my alarm LAST Saturday to remind me…unfortunately, it was a week early.

                I just push the paint around while the painting pushes me.

                    Finally I can perhaps learn how to paint rocks right. They look so logical and easy but … aarrgh! I’m looking foward to Jo’s golden nuggets on this topic!

                        I have just returned from Johannes’ workshop in Hamilton and I will tell you that no one hates to do rocks more than I . I encourage all of you to sign up for this free webinar and find out the many ‘secrets’ to painting more realistic rocks. Once you get this theory, rocks should come a little easier to paint. I never realized just how many painters have this ‘rock block’ ..so we are not alone !

                            Donna: From viewing the painting, you are a “rock star”! Your pieces are extremely expressive – all that you have shared – and this is another winner.

                                    The question is this : can I do it again? I always think I am a one hit wonder. Thank you and looking forward to learning all over again .

                                            Looking forward to the webinar!!!

                                            I was looking forward to the webinar too. However, GoTo Meeting was full at 20 minutes before the webinar, Option 1 on Justin TV had no sound and just one still picture. JTV Option 2 had very jerky sound and video, and Option 3 and 4 didn’t work at all.

                                            Don’t know what the problem was (my sound and video work fine on other signals, as do the commercials on JTV) but this was by far the worst signal reception for me in the year that I have been watching JV’s webinars.

                                            If I hadn’t had good signals before, I would be tempted to give up.

                                            Oh well, wait for the video downloads. I’d rather pay and be able to watch the lessons! :rolleyes:

                                                First session was great on webinar, no problems. I really appreciate Johannes making this available.
                                                Is there homework?

                                                    I nearly missed starting time as I wasn’t aware of time changing to summer time butI still got in just at the start of the class.

                                                    Great class and some of the newer paintings from Johannes were lovely!

                                                        What a great class :thumbsup: Then will come the time to put this in practice :confused: Need a demo for that so, hope everything’s gone to be fine tuned next week :crossfingers:
                                                        Thanks Jo.
