How do you deal with persistent mental blocks? I can start anything, but halfway through I always end up losing my vision.

Try smaller paintings with simpler subjects that you can finish quicker. Work up to more complex things once you get faster at the simple subject.

how long do you wait before varnishing your oil painting?
Bryan Mark Taylor
I wait until it is touch dry then I put on a Gamvar varnish.

Absolutely interesting subject. Nice cool tints in shadow area. This is first time I am seeing such bright reflected tones in shadow area. This is something new to learn from you. You work is so inspiring Bryan. Thanks for sharing in depth demo.

Can we achieve the same results in acrylic colors? What is your experience of working with acrylics and oils? I mean which one you prefer and why?
Bryan Mark Taylor
I prefer oils because I have a longer working time to modify and soften transitions and edges. One thing i like about watercolors though is that you don't have to deal with glare and you can get nice smooth gradients easier with watercolors.
