Working With Each

Handling and Layering

Blending, building up and painting over

Drying time shapes every stroke. This part follows each paint from blending and thick paint to layering rules, and what to thin and clean it with.

• Blending
• Brushwork and impasto
• Painting over dry paint
• Fat over lean
• Mixing the two in layers
• Mediums, solvents and cleanup
