“Congratulations on your fantastic movies and beautiful pdf files. A friend at my longstanding art course enthusiastically told me about your work. I had been wondering why her own work suddenly took off. She had previously been reluctant to exhibit and thought she was no good – now she is thinking of giving up her part-time job because she has so many commissions!
"Richard, you've done it again. I've never seen anything like this. It's like having a complete art course in your pocket. I find it really handy for using outdoors as well as in the studio. All the best, and good painting.
Excellent quality videos and instruction. This is truly a professional course presented by a talented artist who is also an excellent instructor.
I must congratulate you on your series about colour. As you know I have been down the road for many years and I am still learning, and always will. You are approaching the matter out of a completely different angle to all the others I have seen and learned from. Absolutely brilliant!
"What you're doing with the new lessons is great and I'm sure everyone will really enjoy them. I really like the whole "mini-adventures" feeling you give to it - It really feels like I'm tagging along with you and looking over your shoulder the whole time while you paint outdoors. I can't wait for the next adventures!
I learned more about color in the first two chapters than 2 college courses I have taken."
Have just finished watching your Painting Adventure video and found it fantastically inspiring. The hints and explanations were very helpful. John Crump is a wonderful artist too. Loved the casual approach and am planning to try and paint the scene myself from your photo. Am off now to check out Richard Schmidt, Kevin MacPherson and Robert Hagan whom you mentioned on the video. Thanks again, keep up the good work.
"Words cannot express the joy from watching this fantastic video. Not only did you teach me so much about painting in his style but the quotes, brief history of his life and many, many photos of his paintings were such an incredible inspiration to me. I am so grateful for what you do.. you are one of my favorite artists in the handful I truly admire, respect and love to watch paint. This past hour has inspired me to paint again after a 2 1/2 year hiatus. Thank you so much!!!"
"Richard Robinson’s workshops are a wonderful learning tool. Richard is generous with his knowledge which is bounteous. There is the added advantage of seeing what other artists from around the world produce for each challenge and Richard’s critiques are insightful and inspiring. I commend his teaching ability and have learnt much in the art of painting with oils during this course and hope to continue."
I’m really impressed with the site. I have purchased 5 or 6 videos over the years from online vendors and yours are my favourite in terms of the quality of the instruction, music and finished work. I’m looking to take my painting to the next level and your instruction is a big help. Now that all the videos are available as a membership I’ll be signing up, really great work! Congrats on putting together such a user friendly content rich site.

My take on Mount Talbot, couldn't hack the flax, so went with grass. Also threw in some pebbles on the right, and left out the tree. Otherwise hope I managed to capture the feel of your painting. Oil on canvas - Nancy Murraye

A big part of what I teach in these painting lessons is really about seeing. You'll learn how to see like an artist, which is very different from how most people look at the world. An artist sees by observing relationships - the relationships of colour, value, shape and texture. Once you know how to see these relationships more clearly your painting will literally jump ahead from where it is now.
I look forward to teaching you!
