Amazing Landscape Painting Demo by Artist Maxim Grunin

I often browse around YouTube and other video sharing websites in search of new talent to post here on my blog.  Today I hit the motherload!   The following is a two part video demonstration of a landscape by the amazingly talented artist Maxim Grunin.  I was in absolute awe when I watched Maxim create this work of art in what seems like a matter of hours.  When you see the finished product you will be amazed as well.  The finished painting looks as though it took months or even years to create.
