I pretty much just use paint thinner ( mineral spirits ) and Liquin ( made by Winsor/Newton. Liquin is alkyd-based, but compatible with oils and it speeds the drying time tremendously, which I like. I typically just dip my brush into the medium and mix it into my paint.

Thanks for watching my videos. That palette is one that I’ve had many years. It’s hard to find a nice, large white oil painting palette anymore. However, I am working with a company in hopes of manufacturing my own “signature” palette which would be similar to this one, but with some improvements. If this comes to fruition, it won’t be for quite some time yet, but if and when it does, you’ll find the details posted on my website.

Your video clips are so useful. Thank you so much.
A quick question, if I may. Where did you buy that nice palette? I would like one for my own use.
Kind regards,

Yes, if you’re doing a “knife painting”. I do some of those type in my classes. Go to my blog and scroll back a few entries and you’ll see some paintings that were done solely with knives.

I heard someone said he used a knife to paint the sky on the canvas without medium lubrication, is that possible?

Wonderful tutorial! I am new to oil painting and I had a few questions…do you use any thinners or mediums in your paints? If so, what do you use and why do you use that specific medium/thinner? Also, what is your method for adding the medium/thinner to your paint? Thanks!

I think you’ll enjoy the sunset lesson. It’s fun to do different versions of it, changing the colors to get different moods. Plenty of room to experiment!

Thank you for your prompt reply! I think I did the third one but I will keep trying until I do it right. Like you said, “Practice Make Perfect”

That could be …
That could be caused by a number of things.
* The paint not mixed thoroughly on the brush, which will leave a streak.
* Using too much pressure on the brush when finalizing the blending of the sky. Use a firmer pressure when applying the Gesso to get it worked into the canvas, but use a lighter pressure when adding the color and even lighter when fine-tuning the final blend.
* If the paint starts to tack up and dry ( from not working quickly enough ) it can result in brush marks.

I email you last week asking about how to do the snow shadows, now I did it thankyou!. However, there is another problem : how come I have a brush stroke on the canvas when I paint the sky? I wish I could attend to your class but I am living in Nevada
Anyway, looking forward to your advice, thank you!
