"Good morning Darrell.  I just listened to the first [DVD] last evening, "Preparation".  ....the video was incredible.  Such a wealth of knowledge.  I spent most of the evening viewing it and taking notes.....there was so much "important information that one could absorb in one sitting. 

I especially was enlightened by the care of brushes, maintenance of thinner and your care of brushes and their specific value/function.....I did not anticipate appreciating the "Preparation" tape as much as I did."  Sister Shirley, 11/13/2005 

Darrell, I ordered your complete set of DVDs and have been thoroughly enjoying learning from them.  I have painted one picture every day for the past month, sometimes the same one again to improve it.  I am really getting much better every day and just wanted you to know that I think it is wonderful that you are offering these instructions to help us "wannabe's' 

I retired in July and have wanted to learn to paint all my life, never having time or money to try it before.  Needless to say that I am having the time of my life learning now.  Thanks again, also, for the personal attention you have given via emails to help me with decisions and questions.  Helen W.  10/7/2004

Hello Darrell,  Since I received you basic oil painting lessons, I can now paint your Blue Romance scene just from your site.  I had never oil-painted before.  Now, my family has to pull me away from my canvas.  Your dvd's have taught me alot in the comfort of my home. Thanks   Johnnie S  1/19/2005

Back in 1991, I was you. I knew without a doubt, I had no artistic abilities whatsoever.

Nothing, nada, zilch. I even sweated drawing stick people.

I know that sounds like I'm over stating the facts, but the truth is I knew nothing about art. I knew what I couldn't do. So I didn't even try what I knew I couldn't

The man who broke through my wall of disbelief is Jessie Martin, an artist in E. Freetown, MA. At a flea market Jessie personally spent 45 minutes talking me into just TRYING. I simply did not believe in myself. I knew that I couldn't paint. I was rock solid in my disbelief. I had no faith in me.

Oh, do I remember my disbelief. I'd seen the fuzzy headed guy on TV now and then. Although I knew he was talented, I didn't believe him either when he said he could teach me to . One had to be born with talent to paint.

But Jessie said something that day to me I've never forgotten. His words got through my thick-headed engineering mind.

First thing he said was signing one's name is an art form. We spend more time in school teaching people how to write than how to paint. And anybody with enough practice can sign their name.

Well, I had no trouble signing my name. It wasn't pretty, but it was unique and I can now sign my name anytime. The school teachers had taught me the fundamentals of the writing technique, I had practiced, and practiced until the art of signing my name was second nature.

The second thing Jessie said that really hit me like a ton of bricks was that learning the fundamentals of oil painting was simply learning the techniques. He could teach me the techniques and all I had to do was simply practice, practice, practice. I could practice anything if "I understood mentally what I was doing". Jessie made it clear he would help me to understand mentally the concept of each technique.

It's all history now, but let me tell you.....I sat down with Jessie, took a class with a lot of disbelief. But I walked away differently from that lesson. The difference, was that now I truly knew "I could paint". I'd learned so much from the first free lesson he gave me to become convinced that I could oil paint." I now had tons of faith in me. With enough practice, I could turn technique into talent. Today, I'm so amazed by all the people who tell me how talented I am. I owe it all to Jessie's comment, "Darrell, anyone can paint, even you. Learn the techniques. Practice them until their second nature and never quit practicing. When the techniques become second nature, than you'll not believe how the world opens up to you and you litterally will want to paint everything you see. You'll look at the world with different eyes. You'll be an artist."

Jessie was right.

That's why today I offer one of my full, 2-hour instructional oil painting DVDs as an incentive for you to take that first step. So that you can believe in yourself. No matter how disbelieving.....no matter how doubtful, sit down with me for a couple of hours on DVD and the experience will totally transform your concept, your belief in you. You will walk away with absolute faith that "Yes, you can oil paint."

Jessie's words have become the inspiration behind all of my lessons and the drive to constantly help everyone to mentally understand the concept behind each technique taught in my DVD series. If you have a "want to" no matter how much you "disbelieve," you can learn to oil paint. I guarantee this so much, that the first lesson is on me.

You can take this tiny first step without cost, without any obligation whatsoever by simply letting me know where to send your free lesson. I'll put your first, no-obligation lesson right out in the mail tomorrow.
