Carol Marine's Daily Painting

In  Painting Instruction you might have noticed that I feature painting demos by artists whose work I admire.
Their YouTube performances are usually inspiring and instructive in some unexpected way.
For me, it's a bit like watching street magic.
I can't think of anyone whose work better fits the magic analogy than Austin, Texas painter and painting teacher Carol Marine, whose .
wizardry resides in the realm of light and color

For the past couple of years I've subscribed to her e-mail newsletter that keeps her fans apprised of her daily painting -- a practice she's  maintained for the past four years. So she's a role model. And she has good taste in music, as you'll hear in the video.

You can  find her small jewel-like oil paintings on her blog, which is appropriately titled Carol Marine's Painting a Day.
She sells the small still lifes on eBay and shows her larger works at the  Wally Workman Gallery in Austin, TX and other galleries around the U.S, and in San Miguel, Mexico.
