Oil painting with confidence from rough sketches through to the finished article.I'll show you Ten Oil Painting Techniques that I use in my own paintings - From there you will be able to create portraits, landscapes, wildlife paintings and anything else you can imagine. If you are already experienced you can access further tutorials within this site. Of course you may only be interested in sketching and drawing or want informative lessons in other paint mediums. You will find plenty of guidance and tips in pencil, pen, watercolor (watercolour if you're a Brit like me) acrylic painting and mixed media. You'll even find instruction on specific topics such as, drawing eagles, people and cartoons. Painting clouds, and portraiture. This is a typical example of my own work. The first stage is a simple pencil sketch establishing the basic shape of the subject.
Secondly I make a more detailed drawing
The next stage is the application of paint which I put on liberally and quite roughly.
The final stage is where I blend the colours and add detail until the face takes shape.
Believe me, this is not beyond you. Follow my tutorials and you'll be making paintings better than this before you know it. Ok, this site is more about visuals than words so I'll give it a rest and let you get on with your own art. Dive in and have fun.
