Demo Oil Painting | How To Use The Dry Brush Technique In Oil Painting - Mid Day Clouds
In this all levels demo oil painting class you will learn all about the dry brush technique. That will be our focus. This demo painting class is for all levels of oil painters who wish to explore new ideas and techniques with their oil painting.
I would recommend watching the whole class all the way through before painting the painting itself. This way you will have a good idea of the process and you will make better connections of the process this way too.
This painting was done over three days, each new day the painting has completely dried.
This course is designed for:
Artists that have a desire to develop and practice a structured approach to learning how to oil paint
Artists that are focused on improving their skill at the canvas
What you’ll learn:
How to use the dry brush technique to achieve a cloud likeness
How to blend colours and values
And the most valuable thing when painting in oils: How to manage your oil paint on the canvas
Here is the supply list for this all levels oil painting class:
Shop towels*
6" x 6" gessoed** canvas (I gesso my canvas with two to three coats, making sure that previous coat dries before applying the next one)
Paint palette (or anything with a hard nonporous surface)
Paint thinner or gamsol (to clean your brushes, I clean my brushes outside as thinner is toxic)
Walnut Alkyd (to mix with oil paint to dry fast, use in a well ventilated area)
Baby wipes to clean you hands from any oil paint and wipe your palette.
Brushes:
3/4 Flat Synthetic Brush (I have two of them, one for dark's and one for light colours)
1/4', or 3/8" Angled Synthetic Brush (2 of them, one for dark's and one for light colours)
Number 4 Round Synthetic Brush (2 of them, one for dark's and one for light colours)
Watercolour brush for blending (a smaller one for the smaller canvases)
Make up brush for blending
Flat palate knife
Paint colours (I use Gamblin 1980s series):
Cobalt blue (or any blue)
Ivory black (or any black)
Sap green (I really love the intensity of sap green, but other greens are fine too)
Alizarin crimson (or any red)
Cadmium yellow light (or any yellow)
Cadmium red (or any red) you can also use crimson)
Titanium white
*Shop towels are way better than regular paper towels as they leave no residue or paper towel shavings when wiping the canvas.
**Gesso is an acrylic paint base. It can be thin or thick. In this case I'm using it to prime my canvas, so it needs to be thicker (so I don't have to prime it with more than two or three coats.)
