I think this man is pure genius! His art is so very clean yet speaks very loudly of him as a creator a designer and a human being! I am floored by his gorgeous ability to delight my eyes and my heart🥰🥇🥇🥇
I always thought that APV were a professional film making team. But on hearing this with its inane background whistling music I guess they've gone down hill.
We are indeed professional film makers. If you bought the full length 120 minute long film you will find that there are only small bits of music during the introduction and ending of each painting. Trailers are somewhat different and music has been included throughout here to made it a coherent piece.
If you buy his very first DVD/VOD (or rent on VOD) from us he shows us how he does it! A LIGHT TOUCH: LANDSCAPES IN OILS www.apvfilms.com/show_product.asp?id=129
Painting decay &/or patina within buildings, architecture in general is always a good time. Letting the streams flow down & sideways, layering color with soft edges…..a painters buffet of fun lol. I really enjoyed this video & ur work, thank u!
