YouTube Lessons & Demonstrations

Many people are curious as to the process and stages of my paintings. So I have created a Youtube channel I call "Monet Cafe" with lots of lessons and tutorials of my painting process. 
Monet Cafe' is like your own little personal art studio where you can learn in art training no matter what your age or level of experience. It is also a place to relax and experience the wonderful stress free benefits of artistic exploration. 

ALL ages and skill levels welcome!!  Oh, and please subscribe if you would like!
