How To Learn And Master Oil Painting
First off and most important in painting is knowing and choosing the correct materials. Things you’ll need: brushes, paints, canvas and primer, and some thinners and solvents for cleaning. But how do you know for sure if its good quality? When it comes to finding the right materials for painting, you will have a learning curve. After trying a few things out, you’ll figure out what materials are best for you.
When you pick out your canvas, start with something that is comfortable. When it comes to quality, don’t focus on it too much in the beginning. Make sure that the canvas you buy is decent enough to last in case you love your first painting. You also need to prime the canvas for oil use.
Brushes are the most important piece of painting, the fingerprint of painting. Hog’s hair brushes work the best with oil painting. Try out all different kinds and sizes to find which works best for you. You will also need a thinner/solvent to clean your brushes in between colors. And now its time to choose the paints. Whenever you are buying oil paints, buy quality. If you don’t want to spend too much on paints just yet, start with the primary colors.
The hardest part about painting is learning the methods, and if you are like 92% of normal people, you can’t afford a tutor or have the time/money to take courses at your local college or trade school. So what are your cheaper and more convenient options? The Learn and Master Painting by Gayle Levee makes learning how to paint at home a breeze. Imagine if you could learn at your own pace inside your house? Can you pause, rewind and fast forward your tutor!
