"You draw a drawing and paint a painting" Helen Van Wyk told her students. By using the proper brushstrokes and adhering to the three properties of drawing - proportion, perspective and structure - Helen shows you how to use your brush to draw the components that make up every painting, even one whose subject is something from memory. In the first segment, Helen demonstrates how to use the principles of painting to create a picture without the benefit of subject matter. Then, she paints a porcelain bowl and lemons, drawing with brush and paint instead of a pencil or charcoal. This is a unique lesson that will guuide you through every painting you create. Only a painter of Helen's caliber would attempt such a profound approach to teaching the craft! (parvenu)
