Comment on Amber Marie.. A study by InsAnnaty
WOW! Your art is TOP CLASS. its awesome.
I wanna ask you some tips if you dont mind. Im trying to start on oils. Do you use underpainting? People seems to work with Grisaille (b&w) or verdaccio (greenish), wich one do you like best?
Wich medium did you used for the glazing on this piece? I heard that the Gel Medium works better for glazing, instead of just adding loads of turpentine, is this so?
Kudos for your piece again! Really amazing!

Hello! Thanks for the compliment.
I do use underpainting it is a very important step. Not only does it map out the values for what you are going to paint, but it will unify the color of the whole peice once it is done.
For portraits or daylight paintings I use burnt umber and burnt seinna for the underpainting. I use more umber on the cooler parts and more sienna where the warmer parts are going to be.
For night pictures I like to use ultra marine blue and a touch of asphaultum(gamblin) for the darker parts.
For glazing I like to use liquin original. Yes turpintine will dull your painting. I've never tried gel medium before.
Good luck! You have a great great ability for drawing. I'm sure you'll make an excellent painter because drawing and light is key to being a successful painter.
