    Very... fresh and painterly outcome! Excellent brushwork! Are you using any medium with your paint? I noticed some very good paint flow when you were painting the left side of the background. Was it done alla prima? I noticed that you had no issues with the paint layers, where I usually get a slippery, muddy mess... Anyway, many thanks for the demo!

    I love the colors in this painting so much. The background is divine. I am trying to find a class…desperately. There’s only so many KZread videos I can watch. What is this style of painting called? Any chance I could use acrylics (I have so many Golden acrylics) I want to learn tonal values in color. Any suggestions of a name of class I would look for? I’m so sick of being self taught I could scream. ♥️😁

    Thank you for your comment! The style is called Impressionism! Not sure you can use acrylics but don’t know for sure as I have never used them myself. I know Kevin McPherson’s book has some stuff about tonal values which may help. I suppose the thing to do is find a class and before joining check out whether they cover tonal values in colour. 👩🏻‍🎨❤️

    Une belle réalisation bien contrastée et harmonieuse. À mon sens, «l'effet beurre» ( l'empattement de la peinture) est quelque peu excessif pour une nature morte car il limite nécessairement l'ajout de détails fins. Bien cordialement.

    Hi, I'm new to oil painting, when you added the midtones and highlights, did you do it with a medium? or did you paint the first layers with thinner? or am i not understanding the "Thick over Thin" rule

    @ClareBowenArtist

    Hello the first layer is with gamsol. 2nd is with a smaller amount if gamsol then no gamsol for final layer. This makes it thicker and thicker and my brush is loaded more at the end stages too. Hope that helps. Happy painting! Clare 😊
