Watery Strokes

It turns out that, aside from using a brush loaded with slightly thicker paint, the best advice I have for this oil-on-aluminum technique is: be definite about doing a stroke— try to put it on in one move. This helps avoid having to go back and fiddle with the line and making it look fractured. I have a lot to learn, but so far, so good.
