Thanks to everyone who responded to my recent poll! 👋 No surprise—“Clouds & Skies” came out as the #1 challenge, with “Grass & Foliage” close behind. If those are areas you struggle with, you’re not alone—and I’ve got you covered. My brand-new course, Painting Dramatic Clouds 2.0, dives deep into both.

I’ve been thinking a lot about what makes learning to paint stick. For me, it always comes back to this: painting isn’t about “talent.” It’s about learning the fundamentals, having a clear process, and focusing on progress—not perfection.

That’s the foundation of how I teach—and why I don’t just want students to copy what I do. Instead, I want to help you grow your own style and feel confident making your own artistic choices.

I recorded a short video to share more about my teaching philosophy. If you’ve ever wondered whether my courses or approach might be right for you, I think this will give you a good sense of what I’m all about.

Enjoy the journey!

Struggling to make your grass look realistic in a landscape painting? I just uploaded a quick demo showing how I paint natural-looking grass using simple chip brushes. It’s one of those small details that can really bring a painting to life.

There are 4 basic rules (or principles) I follow every time I paint a landscape—and they make the process so much easier. From simplifying shapes to getting your values right, these are the essentials that help you paint landscapes you’ll be proud of.

After you watch, be sure to leave your questions or comments below the video. I read them all, and your feedback helps me know what to share next. Thanks for watching!
