Painting in Living Color: Carolina Morning by Susan Crouch

An Artist Palette Productions art instruction DVD. North Carolina artist Susan Crouch's Painting In Living Color-Carolina Morning DVD is jam-packed with tips and techniques that have been learned during her 20 year painting journey. In Crouch's own words, "Every painting is a learning experience for me. I like to hang onto the things I have learned in order to use that information again in future projects."

Inspired by God's creation, the 3-part painting demo is very user-friendly and informative. Susan breaks down the process of watercolor painting, using her layering" process, into easily understandable parts that when put together leads the participant/artist into a fully finished painting.

"I work primarily in transparent watercolor because its character allows for a wonderful blending of spontaneity and control", Crouch continues. "As a result, my paintings are a fusion of realistic and interpretive elements. Most projects begin with preliminary sketches to determine composition, value pattern and colors. Once these initial decisions are in place, I follow where the watercolor leads me."

If you are looking to jump-start your painting, this is certainly the DVD for you.
