A Note from Eric Rhoads
 
I Was Surprised When This Art Legend Grabbed My Hand And Put His Arm Around My Waist … 
 
What Happened Next Completely Shocked Me!

I was startled.

On a visit to Santa Fe, I had dropped in to visit artist Albert Handell at his studio.

How could I pass it up? 

After all, Albert is a living art legend.

I can remember the gravel crunching under my feet as I approached the driveway. My palms were sweating because I tend to get a little nervous around legends.

When I knocked, I heard that familiar voice call out, “I’m coming, I’m coming,” and, as Albert opened the door, I was met with a giant grin and a massive bear hug. 

As I walked in, I saw that the studio had huge north light windows and there were several easels and racks filled with paintings.  

I could not believe my eyes. I was standing in the studio of one of America’s great artists. A man who will go down in history for his contribution to the world of art. A man whose paintings command some of the highest prices.

After some small talk and a tour of the studio, Albert pulled out stacks of paintings for me to view … I felt very privileged.

Thousands of people would drool over the opportunity to spend time, in person, with this amazing man. 

Then the unexpected happened. As Albert continued talking, he moved very close to me … close enough that it was a little bit uncomfortable.

Then he grabbed my hand, put his arm around my waist, and said...

“Eric, do you ballroom dance?”

Quite taken aback, I mumbled a bit, “Er … uhhh … well … no, not really.”

“It’s easy! Let me show you how. My [late] wife, Jeanine, and I used to dance all the time.”

Then Albert proceeded to show me how. 

Here we were, two grown men, dancing around his studio ... “1...2...3 — 1...2...3 — move your feet this way”...

I remember thinking, “What if someone walks in?” 

And sure enough, just then someone did walk in. “Did I catch you at a bad time?” asked the guest.

“Oh, no, I was just showing Eric how to dance.”

Next thing you know, he was giving us both dance lessons and we were flitting about the studio like graceful swing dancers.
A Powerful Memory
That day, visiting Albert’s studio and dancing with him, has become a treasured memory for me, and it’s a story I will tell for the rest of my life. 

Not only did I learn to dance (I’m pretty clumsy) … I got a chance to see Albert’s best work — his favorite pieces he has held on to. And how many can say they’ve danced with a legend?

While we were at the studio, Albert began teaching me techniques I’d never seen before. And though he was showing me by using pastels, I realized I could apply these ideas to oil, too — 

But something else unexpected happened.

Seeing Albert work got me really excited about pastel painting — something I’d never really tried … (side note: now I’m hooked!)

Though I’ll never give up my oils, I’ve come to realize there are times when pastels, and even watercolor, would bring a whole new and interesting dimension to my paintings.

I bet you can guess what I was thinking...

Wouldn’t it be amazing to capture this art legend teaching pastels?

I thought it might be a long shot, but I took a chance and asked, “Albert, is there any way I could get you to come to our studio to film these techniques for another instructional video?”

I was thrilled when he said, “I’d be honored.”

And so … here it is!

Take just a peek!
The legend, Albert Handell, is back in a BIG way!

And this time, he’s going to share his knowledge and wisdom on pastel painting!

You're going to witness how the master creates a painting from scratch…

Every color choice explained … every technique demonstrated … and every thought process shared…

...to further improve your pastel skills and set yourself apart from the rest.

Handell will share techniques to grab the viewers' attention from afar and draw them into the painting...

He’s going to reveal specific tactics on how to create harmonizing colors, how to organize your pastel trays to expand color combinations, how to “see” unexpected color effects, and much more.
Plus, you'll discover his unique approach to analyzing a painting so you’ll know when your painting is truly “finished” — an important skill to have, as sometimes we “overwork.”

In case you’re not familiar with Albert Handell… (I forgive you… this time ;-) )

Please let me share how amazing and inspiring this man is...

Handell is a widely recognized artist who has received more than 70 prizes and awards from national and international organizations.

Since 1961, he has had over 30 one-man shows — including a pastel retrospective in 2007 at the Butler Institute of American Art in Youngstown, Ohio.

Handell was also one of the first plein air artists to work with a full set of pastels on location … and he has authored or co-authored five instructional art books on pastel and oil painting.

Thanks to his contributions to the world of art...

The Pastel Society of America elected Handell into the Pastel Hall of Fame in 1987, and the Pastel Society of the West Coast later bestowed on him its first ever Lifetime Achievement Award.

I had the pleasure of honoring him with yet another Lifetime Achievement Award at the 8th Annual Plein Air Convention & Expo (PACE) in San Francisco in 2019!

Handell’s paintings are in numerous museums, including private and public collections, today.

His works are being displayed at the Brooklyn Museum of Art, Brooklyn, New York; the State Collection of New Mexico, Santa Fe; the Butler Institute of American Art, Youngstown, Ohio; and the Albrecht-Kemper Museum, Saint Joseph, Missouri.

With such vast experience, there’s absolutely no doubt…

Handell is a living legend.
