Encouraging us to think carefully about how we paint, Helen Van Wyk's DVD 'Kissing and Warm Colors' shows how "Kissing" ruins paintings, how dimension is lost and how "Kissing" can make a confused subject matter. Helen tackles the hot subject of orange with a full demonstration of a still life that includes orange fruit and a vase. As always, Helen teaches us basic principles of painting and it is up to us to and grasp her words. One viewing of this video is not enough to fully digest its content. The color red, the subject of passion: Helen introduces us to a still life involving leather bound books, wine and glasses. She covers lessons such as how to add passion to your paintings and how to paint reflections and how to paint glass. As Helen had always asserted, "still life is the back-bone of good painting".
