13 episodes of "You Can Draw!" now on DVD

[Lon Haverly]

I am pleased to announce that my 13 episode TV series "You Can Draw!" which aired on Oregon Public Broadcasting this year is now available as a set on four DVDs, or individually. You can only order directly from me.

I draw a complete portrait each episode in pencil, charcoal or pastel with a live model. It is three-way split screen showing the model, the board, and yours truly. The board view is directly over the drawing so that a viewer could follow along line for line. One episode, I draw four six-minute portraits. Each episode I also give a little demonstration of basic drawing techniques, including "line first" and the "primary method" of learning to draw.

I have not distributed them anywhere yet, other than through the ad on the series itself. However, I am in the process of getting national distribution of the TV series through NETA, the national public broadcasting distributor. I received a call from Bob Pettz, the director, requesting a screening of my work. I am hopeful!
