Oil Demonstration 81
STAGE 5 BIG AREAS OF COLOUR
Here I am thinly sketching in big areas of colour in relation to their local colour and the atmospheric light. I am using complementary colour mixing
to create my grey colours, and I am keeping my colour palette as limited as possible at this point.
STAGE 6 ADDING OTHER LIGHT SOURCES
Adding other light sources allows you to know where the lightest tones on the painting will be. The paint medium I use at this stage is a mixture of
60 percent turpentine, 20 percent liquin and 20 percent stand oil.
