Florida, FL (prHWY.com) October 17, 2012 - Florida, Oct 17, 2012 - Although it is frequently used as a method of changing the colour of one layer of oil paint by applying a second, transparent layer painted over it, its use can be developed further in other ways. Some of these ways are suggested below, together with some hints on how to proceed.

Abstract Oil Paintings - Like most methods and techniques, one needs to practice in order to master the approach, but that can be done inexpensively on spare material. But it is a method of working that all artists use because of its obvious advantages and the (sometimes great) cost of introducing a new technique straight into a painting.

Shadows occur very frequently in paintings and it is difficult to generalize about their colour since they will vary from scene to scene, and with the amount of brightness, etc. Using, say, a filbert brush, acquire a liberal quantity of medium on the brush and, pushing the brush into the paint, create a new liquid deposit of paint next to the original by withdrawing the brush slightly and pushing down on it against the pallet. Dab the brush onto a piece of toweling to reduce the quantity on the brush.

Oil Paintings On Canvas - This will give a light tone for the shadow, and you can always darken it subsequently. Let the paint dry. If the area of shadow is too light, repeat as needed to get the required effect. The same kind of method can be used for the following uses. If you were painting a tree trunk, part of it will be away from the light source and therefore darker than the rest. The difference in tone, in an instance like this, is unlikely to terminate in a sharp line, so you would need to thin out the shadow into the main colour.

This can often best be done by painting the shadow in first and then drying the brush out. Ensure you do not make the initial reflection too heavy. The shape of whatever is being reflected will obviously need to be broken up (probably both) vertically horizontally. The extent to which this is done will, of course, depend on the movement of the water which itself is determined by wind, currents and, if part of an estuary, tidal effects. All these need to be taken into account when planning the painting and deciding on the overall effect you wish to create.
