I also recorded the entire painting process which I’ll hopefully be uploading to YouTube shortly, as a ten minute video, although it’s a biiiig file as I’ve kept it at 640 pixels wide rather than the usual teeny tiny 320 pixels wide. I’ll post again when the video is up and running.

Working on a new ink drawing, A3 size!

I really enjoyed doing the (now sold) ink drawing I called ‘House by the Lake’. I’ve now started a v2.0 of said drawing using A3 watercolour paper and a 0.1 Liner pen. It’s going slowly, but surely:

Oil painting, wet-in-wet, with homemade liquid white

I first came across the wet-in-wet technique (sometimes called wet-on-wet) while watching reruns of Bob Ross’s Joy of Painting show.

Wet-in-wet is where you cover the canvas with a thin spread of ‘liquid white‘ making the canvas slippery and allowing the oil paint to easily slide across the canvas, mix with the liquid white, and be much easier to blend.

Unfortunately, liquid white is a secret recipe and quite expensive to buy, since it’s Bob Ross branded, but… you can make your own liquid white substitute. Here’s how I do it:
