Oil Paint




Learn How to Oil Paint Made Easy!

I'm travelling down Route 66, the road stretches out in front of me. My shades protecting my eyes from the glaring midday sun.

I pull back the throttle on my Harley, the engine roars, I am catapulted forward. My smile reaches from ear to ear.


"Rover", a shout comes from the left and front, I look for a dog crossing the road in front of me.

"Rover!!"

My mind springs alive just in time to see a blackboard duster flying at my head. I duck as it whizzes by.

Miss Leccy screams again "Rover! Come here boy. I asked you to do a painting of a handle, what is this?"

This was my art class, I was 13 and had been day dreaming, I hated art class, I mean really I could not understand the point.

I liked drawing, but I liked drawing motorbikes, animals and famous people. What did my teachers want me to draw? Bits of wood, leaves, door handles, who cares about door handles?!



So how did I go from hating my art class to having my work commissioned for country houses?

How could I paint a huge 6 foot high, military style painting like that you can see in the picture below, having never done anything like that before?

Am I an artistic genius? No of course not, but I have a method I use for any painting I do. Whether its a portrait, a still life or a large scale military scene.


I have been painting for at least 40 years, and obviously I have picked up many skills, tips and tricks. I have been on many courses and read many books, and I will tell you something about all of them.

They often try to make the easy seem difficult.

No I don't know why. Honestly, painting is easy, my two year old granddaughter can paint. She picks the colors she loves and paints them.

Artists and teachers often try to make more of art than there is, they want you to believe that they know something you don't. That they are somehow superior to you.

Painting is a skill, just like driving a car, working a computer, and its a skill you can learn and practice. Of course some people do have a talent for it, but painting is all about painting what you see.

Get to the point Trev!!

OK having said that I am not going to tell you that my way is the only way, that I am the new oil painting guru. What I will say is that I will try as best as I can to pass on my knowledge to you.

I have produced a set of videos showing you step by step how I do one of my paintings.

There are four and a half hours worth of instruction included in the set. I will take you on a journey with me as I start from a blank piece of canvas and bits of wood, and turn it into a fully varnished picture ready for framing.

The painting is of a particular hero of mine, John Lennon, as you can see I am not going to tell you how to paint an apple, or how to do something too simple. What would be the point? The methods I am showing you will allow you to paint reasonably complex paintings with great ease!

So what are you waiting for?

This set of videos is a guide to painting how an average artist works. It takes you by the hand and leads you through every element of the painting.

The videos last four hours, that how much information there is to give you, no 55 minute instruction on painting apples, no e-book so you can't see how its done, you watch over the shoulder of an artist who explains every step.

It's like learning how the old masters did, you stand and watch as the artist shows you the techniques, the way to paint, the materials he uses and why.

Plus! You get the email address of the artist to contact him direct! You want help? Not sure why your painting isn't working. You can send him a picture and he will actually respond to you!

So how much are we asking for this opportunity to be mentored by an artist? How much would you pay? $100? $200? You would pay $500 for this kind of instruction if you had to sit with the artist.
