RE: Beginning to End - the Process
Awesome painting! I did a three year class in fine arts in 2010-2012, and I also used the grid method. Very effective. I am still busy with acrylic, but wish to move on to oil paint. Thank you for sharing! Hopefully my work also look as good as this!
Hi @fermentedphil! You could always dip your toe into oil painting by doing your underpainting in acrylic and then the final layers in oils.
I am following a couple of painters on instagram that uses that technique! I will try it :). The problem is just I have a fear of drawing/painting the last couple of years because I stopped for a while to study philosophy. I just need to get into it again somehow!
Do you want to know the number one, that fastest route to learning painting?
F*ck it up! Let it go. Play. Do not set out to make masterpieces. Enjoy the process.
Then the magic happens. ;-)
Very very true! I will go out and F*ck it up :D.. maybe the fucked up painting will become my own masterpiece 8)
Na na na... forget the word or concept of masterpiece even exists.
Just go do it. =)
You see how my brain works.., Sometimes you just have to rewire the brain. Tomorrow or next day I am going to buy a canvas and begin :D
So, did you purchase that canvas and begin? =)
I actually did not! I am so busy the couple of days that I could not even eat proper lunches. When I am going to take a vacation I am definitely going to it! Thanks for checking up!
