Description

5 STARS and ARTIST’S CHOICE AWARD:

“Jeff Miracola sets out to make getting into oil painting as simple as possible. Continuing the format from Jeff’s first Fantasy Art Workshop (Acrylic Painting Techniques), his walkthrough of the painting stages is punctuated with short practical guides. These are essential to watch in the case of oils because of the safety issues: Jeff does a great job of explaining the risks of using solvents and oil-based media while showing how simple it is to control those risks with straightforward measures. You’ll also learn about the range of brush types, other tools for painting with, glazing and much more.

A disc full of extras adds further detail, including a valuable section on how to prepare your board; but it’s the main feature you’ll return to repeatedly, as you absorb all the basics you need to get started on the biggest painting adventure of your life.”

About the DVD format:

The DVDs are region-free, which means there are no limitations on which country can view the DVDs. However, the DVDs are created in NTSC format. For those that don’t know, NTSC format is used primarily in the United States and Canada, while PAL format is used in Europe and parts of Asia. NTSC DVD players can not play PAL formatted discs. But most PAL DVD players can play NTSC formatted discs. If you’re concerned that these DVDs will not play in your PAL DVD player, consider getting the digital downloads instead. If you’ve bought NTSC DVDs from the United States before, then these DVDs should work for you just fine. If you’re curious which DVD format your country uses, you can view this list on Sony’s website.
