Berks Art Alliance Demonstration

I am doing a demonstration at the Berks Art Alliance tonight where I will demonstrate my alla prima techinque and talk about my materials and process that I have developed over the past few years. I wanted to post a video that shows one of my paintings being painted from start to finish as a supplement to my talk, and for people to reference later if they wish.  Below is a time lapse video of a painting I did yesterday which is very similar to the one I will be demonstrating tonight.
