A Moving Scene
Perspectives from The Artist's Road
In advance of writing an article on The Artist’s Road about my painting process for developing this image, I thought I’d share my painting progress so far. This small study is in oil, on oil-primed linen canvas, 12 x 24”.



As you may already know, over the last three months, we have been in the process of building a new site and store for The Artist’s Road on Substack - a better, more modern and updated site. We are excited to announce that the new site is up and running! (You will be taken to a Welcome Page and will need to click on the button at the bottom to enter the site. You do not need to subscribe on the Welcome Page.)
We think you will like the new, clean look and ease of searching through our vast archives for your favorite articles. We’ve worked very hard on this, learned a lot while building the site, and, in the process, updated older articles to make them even more relevant to your art practices today. The new Store part of the site is now hosted on Shopify, and we are thrilled with its advanced features and simplicity of use. There you will be able to purchase workshop videos on your favorite subjects and mediums, acquire artist’s tools and books and find many other items of interest to artists everywhere.
Any of you who are getting our free Perspectives newsletter will still receive that in your emails. The same address you’ve always used, https://www.theartistsroad.net will point you to the new site. However, if you should have any trouble with it at all, you can find us at: theartistsroad.substack.com as well.
If you have been a paid yearly member, your memberships have already been converted to a yearly subscription on the new site, and as a thank you for your patience with our move, we have added extra time to your subscription. Monthly paid members have also been converted, but will need to re-subscribe through the new site when their monthly subscription expires. (Automatic PayPal payments for monthly paid subscribers have been discontinued.) All paid subscribers will be notified by email a week and then a day before their subscriptions expire.
Anyone with a paid subscription has full access to the new site, including paid-only articles and features, any store discounts and access to our vast Archive, with nearly 900 articles from which to choose. We are looking forward to many more years of sharing artistic inspiration and know-how on our new Artist’s Road site with all of you!


Welcome to Substack, so good to see you here!
