Webinars

A great way to get in-depth online training with interactivity…

The PaintboxTV webinars are approximately one hour long and I typically start and end with a point-by-point itemized summary of the “take aways”, demonstrating and explaining them during the course of the webinar, incorporating art history and references to master artworks and artists wherever relevant. Listed below, in reverse chronological order, are recordings from past webinars that you can watch and enjoy here on PaintboxTV.
