The
Power of Positive Painting™ instructional
video (now on DVD) has been a real success
story. (See below for more information on
the original P3 video) Robert has received
plenty of feedback over the years since he
first published the Power of Positive Painting™
back in 1995, all of which he has taken to
heart. Overwhelmingly, viewers appreciated
his practical, concrete, informative and energetic
approach to portraiture.
Great news! Robert has put all that
great feedback, insight and subsequent teaching
experience into the creation of the much anticipatedfollow
up DVD, called The Portrait; a value-based
painting system.
The new DVD, from Liliedahl
Video Productions, is even more comprehensive
than the first, much more down to business.
Robert's focus is on breaking down the fundamentals
for the viewer, the ones many teachers tend
to gloss over or skip altogether. He also
gets into the nuances of handling the brush
and executing and recognizing the master-stroke.
There's a section on what to do when you get
into a drawing jam. In the new DVD there is
more explanation about the advantages of mixing
and using the Power Palette. Other bonus features
allow you to take in as much or as little
information as you're ready to hear, when
you're ready to hear it. For instance, Robert
has packed everything he knows about a successful
portrait career into the bonus feature, "Being
a professional portrait artist today."
Beginner and advanced students have expressed
that they have come away with renewed confidence
and a practical, step-by-step approach for
completing a portrait after viewing the new
DVD.

What
people are saying:
I recently purchased your new portrait dvd
from Liliedahl Fine Art. I really enjoyed
your palette information and decided to try
it on a painting I have just started. While
I've been exposed to something similar, I
think you have come up with an amazingly straightforward,
logical and creative system of laying out
a palette. I have studied with a number of
national portrait artists who are excellent
teachers, all of whom talk about value and
laying out colors according to values, but
this system amazed me. Once I took the time
to lay out all the paint, I painted twice
as fast, found workable color mixes I had
never tried before, and came out with glowing
color. I did add some favorite colors to the
palette that you do not mention, but I thought
this was a negligible difference, since I
still laid them down according to the principles
you set out in your dvd. This painting is
much further along than I anticipated at this
time and I am very happy with the result.
So I must say thank you and express a rave
review for your system -- which I'm sure you've
heard many times before, but I felt compelled
to write! Please add me to your email list.
Thank much. . . Carolyn McDade
I just viewed your video
"The Portrait A Value-Based Painting
System". I am so glad to own this
video. I can't say how surprised I am. It
is just so insightful. I'm hoping to purchase
more if they are offered . . . Angie Stewart
The DVD on the Power of
Positive Painting is one of the best DVD's
I have ever seen. It taught me so much and
I felt like I was actually a student in your
class. I learned so very much and I don't
ever know how to thank you for all you taught
me. To me it was a true gift. Someday when
I get better. I hope to be able to afford
to take your mentoring program. I know it
would be the best thing I could ever do for
myself. I could not fail with you in my corner.
I just need some more time to learn more and
reach the level I need to . . . Sylvia

The Original P
3 Instructional Painting
Video
The
Power of Positive Painting© video
(now
on DVD too!) is an entertaining, user-friendly,
highly informative instructional painting video, covering
everything from developing an effective drawing and
under painting, to mixing rich luminous flesh tones,
to completing a finished portrait. Robert's step-by-step
method demystifies the art of portrait painting. "I'm
finding more and more artists who would like to be able
to master honest observational skills — they want
the power to paint what they see," says Robert. The
P3 Method™ is a continuation of the teachings of
Frank Reilly, who's emphasis on the effective use of
values to create form laid the foundation for many of
today's most successful artists. Regardless of your
subject or style, whether you're a beginner or a professional,
now this simple concrete method is available to you!
The information packed P3 Painting
Video can be yours for only $69.95
$49.00 (see special limited time Internet offer below).
Robert's painting demonstrations and workshops have
been very well received in Louisiana, Mississippi,
North & South Carolina and Michigan with several
more currently planned in California, Georgia
and Florida (See Classes,
Workshops
for current schedule). The Metropolitan
Museum of Art recently purchased the P3 Video for
sale in their gift shop! Here are a couple
of the many positive comments coming from those who
have purchased the painting video or participated
in the painting workshops. Visit "guest book" to view
recent participant comments:
"I am so pleased with the improvement in my painting
that was visible immediately as a result of Robert's
instructional painting video. You do the critiques
so candidly and without allowing personalities to
effect your comments. I will certainly recommend you
and your workshops whenever possible." — Brenda
Delle
"I absolutely got my money's worth! Now I know
I can paint a face and all the parts will be in the
right place! Painting the P3 way is a lot of fun!"
— Caroline Goodman
"Well you are not only a very gifted painter,
but an effective inspirational teacher. Your instruction
is sound and you are very good at articulating what
you are trying to explain. the video has reminded
me of all of the good things I've had said to me in
the past as well as some things i need to hear today
like ''don't apologize ''. Well I've been under your
influence all day as I started my judge painting.
Ii do wish I had a stronger light source in my photo
but as i had told you on the phone, the photo was
a done deal and it was my job to say '' yes I'd love
to''. from a practical aspect I am developing some
al new approach as I am a 60 % acrylic painter, a
37% watercolor painter and a 3% oil painter. I also
have years of doing things my way and they are habits,
not necessarily all good ones either, however they
have served me over the years. Well let me wrap this
up by saying that I really think you are the real
deal, and I've enjoyed your instruction. Years of
theater has set you up for making a cool video and
that's great to combine all of those skills at once."
