The making of Esmeralda – oil portrait painting video

If you’re subscribed to my blog via email, the video probably won’t come through. So be sure to hop on over to my blog, so you can see how Esmeralda was born. Er, I mean, so you can see how I painted Esmeralda.

Am I the only artist who thinks painting is sort like giving birth? Nowhere near as cool, I realize, but we do start with nothing, and end up making something, yeah?

This video is super quick for two reasons..1. my sd cards keep messing up, and when I go to upload the video it’s corrupted, so I keep losing footage. I’m having a real problem with the Sandisk brand. My camera prefers Kingston, but my Mac HATES Kingston, and chews them up, and spits them out..rendering them useless. Go figure. sigh. I can’t win. I lost 8 new videos this week..I could just cry. and 2. some people prefer super short videos, so I uploaded it anyway. If this video leaves you hungry (no pun intended since it’s Thanksgiving and all) for more, there is a longer video up this week that you can watch on my channel, if you like. Check it out!

Okay..enough with this rambling. I’m off to spend the holiday with my family. If you celebrate Thanksgiving, I hope you have a great day tomorrow/weekend. As always, I am thankful for you!! Thank you for stopping by.

If you like the video, please subscribe (there’s a button on the lower right of the video that will take you there), and share it with your friends. xo Thaaaaaaanksssss!!!
