making a video
Karin,
I think making a video must be like many things in life where one just doesn't know all the answers because one doesn't know all the questions.
It's a process I've learned from painting, if I sit and think about painting and how to paint and what to do next, I can't figure out the 100 steps it takes for me to paint a picture. Until I get to step 12 I won't know what step 13 is, for example. It's hard for me to remember this. I just have to start and work through the problems as they come along. I think many things in life are like that and I try to remember how many things are really a learning process (for me anyway).
Maybe you can rent or borrow a video camera without making the investment in purchasing one and set it up that way. I don't know how to do the 'voice over' but I'm betting it's probably pretty easy, probably a button to push on the vieocamera. Probably somebody at a camera shop that sells videos could help you. Maybe you could even rent a videocamera from a camera shop that sells them?
It is amazing that information on how to paint in the old masters way is not readily available, as you pointed out. I do have the book on painting like the old masters, but it's just not that easy to follow. I hope you do make a video. Joan
