How to Oil Paint - Barb's Tip for Today
I am continuing to cover the unpainted sections of the face with my selected colours, still experimenting with different tones and hues.
My tip for today is to leave your palette in the freezer when not in use - even if you stop painting for an hour. Here in sunny Queensland, the oils dry out so quickly. As you can see, I have a whole range of colours and tones made up.
Now, I don't spend time mixing new colours every day, and it also saves a lot of money in oils.
So I can continue painting where I left off as if I had never left it.
