Richard Robinson's Comments

richard - i realize you're in vegas - and good on ya!! - i never got the info for this month's workshop so i figured i was still in suspension - just as well because we've had an unexpected death in a close friend's family - and then we head to georgia - so if it's still all right - i'll just pick it back up in may for my second month.  thanks! susie

Hello Richard,

I'm so bummed that I can't make it to the Vegas conference and now it seems I'm also going to miss an opportunity in Hawaii to paint with you. (sigh) Money is very tight right now. Boy I'd love to go, but not this year. Enjoy yourself. I hope they both go very well for you.

A scusami Richard,ho cambiato il nome e cognome perche' era a nome di mio cugino,mentre adesso mi interesso io .  GRAZIE.

Ciao Richard. Ho comprato da poco il mastering color,e' devo dire che una spiegazione come la fai tu non la trovi . Mi trovo benissimo,  prima di comprare questo corso ero confuso con il colore,  quando dipingevo perdevo un sacco di tempo per trovare il valore il croma ecc. e non arrivavo mai al colore reale, adesso invece ancora mi trovo alla quarta lezione e gia' ho le idee molto ma molto piu' chiare. Per quanto riguarda il tool formidabile,comodo e aiuta con il disegno, con la composizione, con il colore e tutto quello che riguarda la pittura. E poi gli esercizi stampabili ti fanno capire proprio la funzione e la posizione del colore del mezzotono delle ombre ecc. CONCLUSIONE: Io diciamo che effettivamente da un'anno che dipingo autodidatta, e se compravo prima il MASTERING COLOR  ero molto piu' avanti e non mi si creava confusione sulla pittura in generale. Secondo me con il MASTERING COLOR  si arriva a risultati eccezzionali in poco tempo. Grazie Richard.  

I got it. Thank you Richard!

Richard, I know you are a very busy guy. Sorry to take your time, and you can just answer me by one word. My question is about workshop2. In the photo, at the right side of the river there is a abandoned  ruin of construction, from it some white materal(is it lye) come out from. What is that ruin?

Hi Richard. Take a look at my page in my photo's...have a look at the 2nd photo of Ruakaka Beach. Its done in Oils on my own stretched canvas, 22" x 24" let me know what you thinks.

I know the sea is a little wrong, mainly where it meats the land in the far distance. Mostly I feel pretty good and I know as I keep painting I will improve.   debbie P

Thanks so much Richard.  I will be VERY CAREFUL typing next time. :)

Hi Richard,

So sorry to bother with this little issue: In the collections of workshop photos I can see my photo of my painting of the still life, but not the set up photo.  I realized I made a typing mistake on my tag and misspelled workshop (duh!).  Anyway I have corrected the spelling and if it is possible to add it into the photos next to my painting that would be great.  If not, that is fine - I will be more careful next time.  

By the way, your workshop idea is great.  Lots of fun to participate and also see everyone else's work.

Thanks,

Tammy

PS I posted this on the workshop comment area as well, but I think I should have put it here instead - so I did! :)  I hope that is OK

Keep up all the good work! This website is my only artist community connection at the moment. Its so important to have some sort of connection with other artists to keep up the motivation. You and others on the site keep me motivated to paint! Thankyou!

Thank you for your help have found the workshop and joined workshop there i will more drawings and paintings i want your sages sans please   

Hi, Richard, just want you know that I am very happy to be your student. Painting is a life long process of learning. With a good teacher guid me make it easier to be better. Have a wonderful Christmas and New year with your fimaily.

wow, totally forgot about that!  sorry to make you look.....

But this gives me a chance to thank you and tell you what a great venue you have going.  It is so inspiring and helpful - I am learning a lot.  And how wonderfully global - to be in Canada, painting an NZ scene - everyone inter-connected, just fabulous.  As I was watching ws3, my daughters were in Queenstown - what are the odds! 

Hi Richard, I can't wait to get started on workshop 4,,any tips on painting the water over the sand? I will give it my best shot but i have a little trouble with water close to the sand.
