Creating a video for YouTube using AVIdemux
Feb 22, 2010 art
Before you can do anything, you need to head over to the Avidemux homepage (http://fixounet.free.fr/avidemux/)and download, then install, Avidemux. The site has installer applications for Windows, Linux and Mac.
So, when you first load up Avidemux you’ll see:

Riverside video now on YouTube
Riverside - oil on box canvas - 16" x 12"
When creating the Riverside painting (shown left) I set up a camera, on a tripod, and recorded the entire painting process from start to finish.
Unfortunately, YouTube only allows ten minute videos, so I’ve sped up the video so you can watch the full 70mins in only 7mins.
If you’d like to see how I did a particular section of the painting, drop me an email, and I can put up chunks of the movie, in real time, on YouTube.
Anyway… enjoy the video!
New oil painting: Riverside
Yes, I finally got off my lazy ass and did a new oil painting.
Riverside - oil on box canvas - 16" x 12"
I also recorded the entire painting process which I’ll hopefully be uploading to YouTube shortly, as a ten minute video, although it’s a biiiig file as I’ve kept it at 640 pixels wide rather than the usual teeny tiny 320 pixels wide. I’ll post again when the video is up and running.

my art on bottle labels at Custom Wines
CustomWines.co.uk
You can now buy my artwork through Custom Wines!
You can either buy an original or buy a bottle of wine from them and they will send me a percentage of the sale price.
When you go to my page, which is here, you can select one of my pieces of artwork, shown down on the right-hand side, choose to buy the label, which is (obviously!) a print of my work, then a wine of your choice, add some greetings/text and preview the label:
Simple as that! So, in the above case, you’re buying a print of my work which gets me a few pennies and gets you a nice bottle of wine with a custom label with whatever greeting you choose. Nifty!
So spread the word about this pretty unique gift site, and buy some wine!
