Oil Painting Basics

 Oil Painting Basics 


Artist have been painting for many years and oil paints gone popular . To get start with oil paints it nearly easy for a beginners. oil paints are little bit more than acrylics paints. So if you are just starting your new oil paint work  you don't need except  old master realness  by your vary new oil paint work . 

Here I have few tips for a novice  oil paint artist . 

Get  organized Area 



 Set up a well ventilated area  , where you keep your palate an d all the essentials  you need for your oil paint work . By this you can view your all essentials clearly and can work well . It would make your work easier for you and I hope you will improve a lot .

Professional Grade  Brushes 

Try to use well quality  brushes . Professional Grade Brushes have a wide ratio of pigment to blinder . So buy less but good quality brushes of different sizes . 

 Get known to color and color mixing 

 Primary paint colors are not pure so you need to lean toward yellow and blue colors to make your work warm and cool . Mix primary colors to form secondary colors .

Prime your canvas 

Use a thick white gesso  to prime your canvas . Many artist also use rabbit  skin glue  for thick canvas work . some other medium can also be used for your work like linseed .   You can also go with some terpeniods

Use palette knife for mixing 

 By using the knife you can give a better texture  to your work Students get fixated on ideas of drawing and quickly get overwhelmed by the concerns specific to oil paint––that the material isn’t dry media, that color can structure an image better than line most of the time, that the material surface is half of a painting, etc.”

Clean your brushes 





 It is important to clean your Brushes well after you accomplish your work . For this use paper towel and two containers during painting .

All you need is to sit on a beautiful place and as an admirer of nature start your sketch .

SCIENTIST AS AN ARTIST

SCIENTIST AS AN ARTIST  Albert Einstein accepted that there is a ton in like manner among ART and science. Be that as it may, since the Renaissance, when polymaths caught the excellence of their revelations and transformed it into workmanship, these two circles of human information have taken totally different ways.  Could science and human expressions actually impact one another, and would art be able to propel science? Among the others, a woodcut of a rhinoceros that stayed the creature's 'official' logical picture until the 1700s; the primary known pictorial portrayal of a syphilitic man; an astounding earthly guide of the eastern side of the equator in context; and woodcuts of the northern and southern skies appeared as polar projections. His impact as a visual artist on science is significant on the grounds that he "imagined changing originations of the universe", clarifies Harvard artist history specialist Susan Dackerman.  Dürer's model is one of the n...

This departure from accurate representation can be slight, partial, or complete. Abstraction exists along a continuum.

Total abstraction bears no trace of any reference to anything recognizable.
