Oil

Oil painting is my second favorite portrait medium, a close second behind Pen-and-Ink. I work on oils in multiple stages, starting with a thinned layer which covers the blank whiteness of the canvas and blocks in the basic colors. Then follows several more stages where I keep refining shapes and colors, letting the paint dry in between. I post some “work in progress” pics on my blog here, on my Fetcher Sketcher page on Facebook, and on Instagram.
