This has always been one of my favorite techniques. I learned it from Rhonda at Angel Art in Lawrenceville Georgia. Angel Art is no longer there but I am so glad I was able to learned the techniques. The scenes are gorgeous.

Your work is always so inspiring, but this article is simply HEAVENLY! Your step outs and explanations of WHY you put which color where...I've learned so much from you by just seeing your work, this is like icing on the cake. Now I know the why's and wherefore's! I'm off to create! THANKS!

Amazing - thanks time to give it a try. Even if it looks muddy it is a start I guess. How many pages do we have to go through to get one to look OK? we shall see...

As always, Kevin's explanations are most helpful! I have most of the Stampscapes line, but I've always envied the scenes on his Web site. Now I feel as if I can do it too! Thanks, Kevin, for a great tutorial.

Thank you Kevin, I have been having trouble with lighting for sometime now. What a huge help this was for me. Thanks for the tutorial.
I love your stamps. Your artwork is absolutely beautiful, I get tons of compliments on the cards I give out for birthdays, etc. They will be even better now.

This article is fantastic, I love Kevin's simple explanation along with the diagrams. Sometimes it is difficult to actually see all the different values of the color being used. Kevin really makes it look so easy that everyone can create great art! Thanks!!!
