How to repair MAJOR painting mistakes

We are going back to airbrush painting a master copy within this next tutorial. This time, it's Rembrandt's self portrait. But this video takes a detour from the full video because I accidentally spilled black paint on my portrait while I was working on it! Mistakes like this are rare, but they happen. So within this video I'll show you how to repair and restore a painting that might seem lost. Paintings are not gone until you give up on them. So even if you feel like it's not going your way, keep going. Thanks for watching.
