Painting from Life: Episode 4, Landscapes with Figures. - Video

A series of documentary videos that explores all aspects of painting from life: from still life, to the landscape and figures.

The videos are supplemented by my books: "Virgin Island Sketches", "Caribbean Sketches", "Notes for Art Students", "Notes for Life-class Students and Models" and "Notes on the Nude".
Links to my books and blog can found on my channel home page.

The opening and closing music features Wynton Kelly (Piano) and Paul Chambers (Bass) playing the introduction to John Coltrane's recording of "Autumn Leaves".

The film clip of Feliks Topolski sketching is taken from an old Pathe news item. It can be found at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=615axxjoWiI
