Prime Meridian

Close-ups of some paintings set to 3 minutes of original music. Hope you enjoy it, and remember to crank the volume -- the louder the better!

Loved it! So inspiring. Thank you for sharing.

BTW, will you and CCP be creating a follow-up DVD to your Innovative Watermedia DVD?? I completely switched to fluid acrylics because of you and that DVD. :)

Paul - I appreciate the visit and comments - thank you!

Elaine - I've got a really wild DVD concept in the works, totally different from anything out there. I won't be shooting it with CCP (they are the best, btw), but they'll be distributing. Re acrylic watercolor, many people convert to that after the workshops. I continue to do what I've always done - use acrylic watercolor and straight watercolor separately, or in combination, depending on the effects I'm looking for. More on that subject in the interview I did on Konstantin Sterkhov's blog...cleared up some common misconceptions and myths: http://sterkhovart.blogspot.com/2011/12/nicholas-simmons-interview-dec-2011.html
Thank you for stopping by!

Jane - glad you enjoyed that..stumbled over that track I recorded yrs ago and figured I'd make a vid from it. Why not add painting shots? Thinking about the next DVD project, probably shoot it next year. Thank you for the interest. :)
