Love this story Allen – thanks so much for sharing it. It certainly adds to the Nancie King Mertz mystique! A good lesson about taking action 🙂

Your process is really interesting. I think Sun Tracks is my favourite. It looks so real. Thank you for sharing your works and your process.

Quick story about Nancie and her ability to set up quickly anywhere. On the first day in a Cuba the bus that was to take us to our place to paint was very late. While everyone was beginning to whine, this nice looking blonde lady whips out her easel and box of pastels and starts a painting. By the time the bus came about twenty minutes later, she already had a beautiful painting halfway done. The rest of us were enviously watching and thinking why didn’t we do that. Of course it was Nancie and she continued throughout the week to do some amazing work.

Ruth I can feel your excitement from here! I love that Nancie’s post has inspired you to paint photos you have of NYC and that it dovetails so nicely with your lessons in perspective. Look forward to seeing what you do. And thanks for sharing your favs. I must say I am quite amazed at Sun Tracks and also Light Commute – even with the tutorial!

Marsha, delighted to hear you learnt a lot! Perhaps I can use your question about negative space for a Q&A video? In the meantime, you are bound to get lots of answers in the HTP Facebook group!

Glad you enjoyed this piece by Nancie King Mertz. Maybe it will inspire you to set up closer to town. Little by little…..
Thanks Cindy!
