Date Posted：10/22/2022 6:49 PM ZENITH'S MINI OIL PAINTING TUTORIAL A series of HOW-TO shots of WAITRESS NANCY.  The 8.5x11 inch cropped original digital JPG with good definition. The printing process, however, may blur some of the colour transition lines.  The 9x12 inch canvas with carbon tracing.  The 9x12 inch canvas with acrylic underpainting.  The finished 9x12 inch canvas. I feel that I did not show enough intermediate steps in Nancy's painting,so we'll do a series of Jason, the cook where Nancy works.  The original cropped head shot.  The 9x12 inch canvas with tracing and a little bit of acrylic under-painting. Notice the splotches in the green background where the canvas manufacturer put too much or too little gesso on the canvas. I painted around the carbon paper lines to make them stand out better in this scan.  Two hours later, still acrylics. Looking better!  This is the finished painting. Perhaps it is not what a pro could do, but it's not too bad for a regular person like you and me. |

Re：Reply Topic Date Posted：10/24/2022 1:26 AM Acrylics are water-based and dry in ten minutes, not 3 days like oils. You can put oils on acrylics, but not vice-versa. It's a pain to do layers in oils, unless they are dry. You just smear the stuff, and it's a botch-up. |
