I for one am happy to vouch for the success of Peggy's efforts. Having recently re-viewed the series, I have realized this week, as I begin a portrait of my son, how much I absorbed from the video demonstrations and the commentary. I keep wanting to paint the eye, but I know Peggy would say it's not time to drop that "poached egg" into the socket yet. And I'm especially happy to be keeping the integrity of the entire piece going at once, instead of noodling around prematurely with small, discrete areas. Even the initial lay-in, which took only an hour on a 20x26 canvas, was (in my opinion) already not a bad little painting, for the overall attention as well as the focus on a value plan. I glad you did all the hard work, Peggy, and I'm glad I've gotten the benefits.
Cheers,
Steven
