Richard Robinson's Comments

Richard, I can't seem to find the critiques or winners for Workshop 19... today is April 1. I hope all is well on your end.  Happy Easter!

Richard, I have a business question.  I just saw your Daily  Painting (?) site where you sell your originals and will ship "lots of places" and accept lots of payments.

My question is:  Is there any warnings to give?

 I put my painting "A Polo Match" on my site with a price of $1,750.  Not too many takers for that price, but if I can sell it out of a gallery I get to keep that extra 40% gallery fee. It is another Flemish method and took me 52 days to complete. I understand you are very busy, but I know no one else to ask about selling on line.  Thanks, Roena

Hi Richard,

I was the very lucky recipient of your workshop painting "Mountain Path" and it just arrived today (that was very quick).  I just want to thank you because it is just gorgeous - even better in real life. I can't wait to get it framed.   I also love the website you have created for us struggling "wanna be artists" and the set up for both your workshops and website is great.  Thanks so much!

Cheers,

Tammy Wolcott

Hi Richard,

Thank you for your critique of my Workshop 17 painting (Winter Walk). I will tweak the painting as per your suggestions and now that you have pointed out a couple of things I can see what you mean. I do struggle and  try hard to paint more "freely" and expressively so the next Workshop should be a big help.

Many thanks,

Tony

I repainted the background to "Green Pastures" per your suggestions ... Thanks Richard, it really did the trick!!  I would have never noticed that weak background if it were not for the artist in the group!!  good job to them all!!

Thank you for your encouraging words. They are much appreciated. I have learned a lot from your workshop and watching you paint the most beautiful pictures. You are an inspiration to me.

thank you for your comment on my cloud study it is much appreciated

Thanks for the info and kind words Richard.

Please drop me as a member of this group.  I am no longer working in the wet media.  In the process of moving.

Im sure I speak for most of us, that I wish I could paint like you!  So bright and carefree looking!  And colorful, no mud!

Hi Richard, just found out from Patricia that my painting/critique has appeared in the IA,  I'm so happy, been struggling a bit of late so this has really picked me up.  Thank you for everything you do on this site its a fabulous way to learn and i have learnt so much from you Oh master! lol....Looking forward to getting stuck in to the next w/shop.  Thanks again.  Pauline

Hi Richard

Thank you Richard,  I'm really happy with the critique and i understand everything you have pointed out and will take it along with me to my next painting.  Its such an amazing way to learn and you are a great teacher and a great artist too. Thanks a million!!!

Hi Richard...I was wondering if you are offering the video for Workshop #9 for purchase? I have joined in the previous workshops but thought I wouldn't have time for this one even though it looked amazing. I was planning a trip to Hawaii and was due to be there now but a medical emergency came up and I had to cancel my trip just days before my flight. I am so glad I bought the flight insurance so I can plan to go when this problem is resolved. Thanks...Janet

Thank you Richard, I learned a lot of English too here. Li

Really love the website Richard and i,m looking forward to joining the next workshop.  I was to late for the April one, is there going to be something in May?  Really like the way you cut that pear.  I'm beginning to remember all the things i did back in college Its fantastic learning how to draw and paint again.  You have rekindled my imagination and ideas and i'm very excited about art again.......Thank you so much.   Polly
