Well I'm progressing under David Gluck's guidance. I wish I had more time and resources to have more class time. His rates are extremely reasonable but my budget is always so tight. I'm learning about chroma, colour and we've pretty well completed the first 3 stages of a still life painting. Each week and each stage of the very first painting I've been working on have opened my eyes and I feel like a light is coming on. I have just touched the tip of the iceberg for each of the stages but I feel that with each painting I do more will be added to my knowledge base. It's just a start and have so very, very far but I'm really thrilled at the progress I'm making.

These are the stages though I'm not sure if I've gotten the names correct as I'm interested in the actual technique rather than the language which I'm sure will naturally follow as it's repeated and my comprehension of what I'm doing is reinforced.:
