Omigod, I've been to at least two of her panels on painting in acrylics, and she is mad good at rapidfire teaching. Heather! Sell tutorials online!

Good idea!

It's worth considering, Heather. I've seen some of your descriptive posts, and they're very enlightening even to someone who doesn't paint.

I know at least one writer who sells a lot of writing-reference and how-to material online. Check out Holly Lisle's shop at:

Also worth looking up are the work-in-progress posts that haikujaguar makes on her blog. Some of the more involved projects have six or eight posts.

It's an interesting thought. I have done step by steps on my LJ occasionally. And there are step by steps on my web page. It would be really cool to put together a video someday that could be purchased on a DVD or CD.
