This is a blog about painting: specifically, representational fine art, generally, using oil paint. I think a lot about what I'm doing, and those thoughts about subject matter, technique, influences, frustrations and delights all show up here. It's all about the journey.

Fun With Glazes
The little tubes of transparent paint from Holbein are working better for me than the standard blending and glazing medium, which tends to get streaky. I mixed Transparent Black, Vermilion, and Yellow to darken the t-shirt slightly. The shadowy folds of the shirt need to go much darker, but I'm considering keeping the shirt a lighter color than the one in the reference photo.
