Just Released. New Roland Lee Instructional DVD


I'm excited to announce the release of my third instructional DVD called "Cliffs of Zion". In this new DVD I walk the viewer through the entire process from reference photo, sketches and initial value study clear through to the finished painting. Techniques such as wet-into-wet skies, scumbling for rock textures, and negative painting for foliage are all demonstrated. You can click here to see a free preview of the video along with a speed painting of the whole process.
