How I started my Art Career. SD 480p

Art as a personal practice as well as my profession. How I trained myself as an artist to make a living with self-study, college classes, personal classes and self-managed studies. Beginning with 2 of my paintings from 1985.

Books I used as self study guides in the 1980s:
1. The Natural Way to Draw, by Kimon Niccolaides. https://amzn.to/3kczCFW
2. Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain, by Betty Edwards. https://amzn.to/3XcJkqs
3. How to See Color and Paint It, by Arthur Stern.

Inspired by my solo self-studies, as a mature artist, I wrote and painted the art instructional book, Paint Happy!, ©2002, 2004, North Light Books. Used copies are sometimes on Amazon.
