Andy's control over tones is stunning. He is not confused by the hue at all. If I get to take his workshop, that's the first thing I want to get trained in from him!

Thank you for watching the video. We are very fortunate to have Andy as one of our instructors. Just to let you know his next enrollment. Period will open March 7. If you missed that one, the next one will be in July.

I took a workshop from Andy several years ago. His instruction is easy to follow. He is also down to earth.

[@TucsonArtAcademyOnline]

That’s great to hear. We are having an enrollment for his course riding the beginning of March.

A good way to start looking at value is to take pictures with your phone when you’re out and about. Then use the photo editor on your phone to turn the picture to a black and white photo. Do your value study off the black and white, then convert the picture back to the original photo when you’re ready to do a color picture.
