As always Sherry answers perfectly. I bet she is one heck of a good lawyer.

Re: Live Paint Along Aug 11 to Sep 1-Discussion Thread
Johannes: You posted in the August 11 thread:
I accept ideas for the 4th painting. What theme would you like. Type now or forever hold your piece (spelled this way on purpose).
Being in Florida, I would like something tropical. However, that may not appeal to the majority. The photo you posted and replaced for week one is an option; or, how about something from Mexico - that would be a change of flavor. I know you are holding off on a seascape and a still life for the webinar sessions.
Whatever you decide is fine with me. I am here to learn.

NancySue, if you have not purchased a palette, just pick up a disposable paper palette from any art store; they are easy, will work for oils or acrylics, and can be put in a plastic lidded container for storage in the refrigerator. The investment is minimal and the cleanup is super easy. As Micki says, "Welcome". Johannes goes through things fairly slowly and will explain it as he goes along. These paintalongs are quite enjoyable. Stu |

Re: Live Paint Along Aug 11 to Sep 1-Discussion Thread
Johannes, I have a question. The paintings done from your paint-a-longs, are they considered ours and if so, can we sell them if we so choose?

Yes, that's fine. This way you can recover costs. |

The Stay Wet acrylics box is 12 X 16 inches. It has a lid. I put a value 5 gray platform under non reflective glass. Make sure the correct side of the glass shows is exposed. Ask the person who sells you the glass to tell you why and which side is the correct one. Then I seal the gap between the glass and
the plastic box with caulking. |

Yes, but you can register once again. I had too as I forgot to bookmark the page. Only nuisance might be that if Johannes do email us we might get two emails instead of one. "See" you on Saturday!! |

Re: Live Paint Along Aug 11 to Sep 1-Discussion Thread
Thanks for all the advice! I have the paint, palette, brushes and Turpenoid. Wondering if there are any other supplies I need? Canvas toned....will try to draw the picture with aid of lined drawing. Do you usually draw the lines on the canvas in order to get the correct perspective?
Thanks so much for your assistance!
Nancy

Re: Live Paint Along Aug 11 to Sep 1-Discussion Thread
I'm not very happy..........I had to pay twice my 19.95. last week now today to get in. thats not right at all. I had the other pic that we were going to paint. I did everything. I will not post the numbers for the webinar on my first confirmation incase it means something. but than it didn't help me.
How do I get one of them back? or can I?
