Follow along as I paint a tribute to all of the essential workers who kept us safe during the pandemic of 2020. This is for all of the doctors, nurses, hospital staff, fire, POLICE, EMS, restaurant and grocery store workers, truckers and everyone else who gets up and does their job while risking getting sick. The world is starting to recover, but for many, it's been business as usual. Thank you!

Like this video? Want to buy me a coffee or a new tube of paint... or generally just support the channel?
Now you can and it would be most appreciated. Once I reach my $1,000 goal, I'll be buying a second camera to record my mixing palette since it's the number one request I get. Cheers! www.buymeacoffee.com/steveatkinson

Love, love, love your museum putty idea for attaching the canvas -- how awesome! Actually I picked up a lot of great painting tips from you in this (definitely coming back for more). This is probably my favorite painting of the month -- colors, content, and the salute to essential workers! With appreciation ❤️

Nice tribute, and beautiful work. I would be interested in seeing how you make your panels. Interestingly, I use the museum putty trick too. Museum putty is my duct tape.

the brush strokes on that face reminds me of Rembrandt's group portraits
