I like to paint demos. I really don't mind painting in front of a group and sharing what is going on in my head as a painting develops. I don't mind being interrupted with lots of question. The more the better. Sure not every demo is successful but I always try to make sure that the group learns something. I find that for a shy person I have a lot to say when it comes to talking about my passion.

I have been posting mini demos on my blog for the past two years. But they are condensed versions and don't quite compare to a real live demo. I have been wanting to find a way to share my demos with others without doing a video. I don't have the equipment for that. So when I discovered that Etsy offers sellers the ability to offer digital downloads I thought it would be the perfect way to share a more detailed demo in PDF form.

I put my first digital download mini lesson on painting animal in my Etsy shop a couple of weeks ago. It has been successful and it was fun to put together. I decided I would try to offer a detailed painting demo each month. So after a couple of weeks of work I am pleased to announce my new digital download Demo. This one is on Painting a Very Green Landscape.

 The demo shows the development of 'Down in the Hollow'. From value study through block -in to the finishing details, this 14 page demo features 30 full color photos with detailed commentary. Under each step of the painting I share exactly what I would talk about in a live in- person demo. The benefit is that you can follow along and spend as much time as you want looking at each step. I cover tips for dealing with a green landscape and how I create distance in a landscape.  If you enjoy the mini demos on the blog I think you will enjoy the expanded PDF demo.

I will still plan on posting mini demos on the blog but I am excited to have a way to share longer more detailed demos with you!  If you would like to give a lesson or demo a try visit my Etsy shop. They are just $6 each and you download the PDF to either print out or read online.
