i like it, i think. I think the sheets (i assume they're sheets) are a bit too stiff-looking, they feel very stone like. maybe that's just my mind playing tricks on me since there are actual stones as well, but the two substances should be very distinct.

i'm a sucker for space stuff though so i like the nebula lookin deal, could be a bit more transparent though imo. also the largest star seems to have something bizarre hanging off its flare, not sure if that's intentional or not.

is there a certain way youre supposed to do oils? ive been doing light layers over the past like 3 days and i dont think its right because its turning out like a watercolor. i dont have any training in oils btw spare a 'graphed' assignment in highschool.

I think the only set rule for oils is the fat over lean rule, meaning each new layer needs to have a higher oil content to ensure proper drying/hardening and prevent cracking. This rule can be bent somewhat by using an alkyd medium such as liquin.

[Anonymous No.2448305]

>>2447978
if you like the look then what's the issue? if you don't then use less thinner and do fewer, thicker, layers. oils are great because you can get so many kinds of looks from them

[Anonymous No.2448533]

>>2448230
i bought some liquin to use but i havent touched it yet, really im just experimenting with turpentine I think i want to focus on getting the right tones and colors. I heard lighter fluid is quick drying too too

>implying i'm not also doing that
a.) i like painting, so using a tiny dallop of black paint and a lot of water doesn't seem like a waste to me, and b.) if i want to paint in perspective it seems like i should learn to PAINT, no?

the material is pretty irrelevant, so you pick the most efficient one, just picking a sketchbook and drawing a few hundred boxes or lamps in correct perspective is a much more efficient use of your time, and it WILL transfer to painting but whatever man

[Anonymous No.2448604]

>>2448533
Well, if you want less transparency use more paint and less thinner, you can always do thin washes on top of that if you want. Also pigments vary from opaque to semi-opaque to transparent, so pay attention to that. They also have different drying times. Just experiment, I'm new to oils myself and I'm having a blast.

[Anonymous No.2448697]

>>2447978
If you want the paint to mix well, you'll have to add a bit of linseed or stand oil to your turpentine (in a glass dropper or something).

Are you using sable brushes? Looks like it's got more turpentine than paint.

[Anonymous No.2448783]

>>2448697
theyre like the 64 combo pack synthetic brand i really dont have a preference or know enough to have one. but yeah its turning out like a watercolor because i keep puting too much turpentine in it because i want too thin of layers and they take forever to dry. im kind of having a hard time just using a ton of paint in thick layers because paint costs a lot. heres a current pic

Interesting composition, we can't really 'enter' the foreground here as viewers, but the background seems to offer us the option of nestling within an alcove. You might be able to exploit that element of the photo.

I like the airbrush textures and abstract framing of the face, especially where the linework of the hair becomes transparent at the top.

the rendering of the nose and lips could have usttle more attention, and I get that you're going for an expressionistic mix of realism and abstraction, but the areas you chose just make the piece seem unfinished.

I think that if you used color over the eye and added more separations of the face, it might go further to create a consistent effect.

[Anonymous No.2450678]

>>2450655
Hey, I like the complete separation you did in the eye!

The only idea I had when I painted this was made it with a notorious brushing, I wasn't looking for a perfect smoothing effect. And the palette of colours was already decided too before start, but I thinked on use magenta for the only eye you know.

Thanks!

Not enough contrast between dark/light.
dark side should also have different color. Also, no hilight and no boundary between light/dark.

"The Elements Of Drawing" is online somewhere where you learn to look at things and see their real colors. For imagination and more theory, see James Gurney, "Color and Light."

Most of the colors in the background are straight out of the tube, and I only mixed little bit on the face, so I don't know what you are talking about.

You should have looked closer to see that the colors are indeed straight out of the tube or mixed one or two steps only.

Thank you anon.

I will admit that the painting came out muddy and dark, which is why I am changing it. But I don't appreciate how some anons are trying to depict me as a beginner who makes beginner's mistakes like mixing too many times with oil and making colors like poop.

As you can clearly see in the previous revision, the painting was not all poop color as the anon is trying to depict it as. It was actually golden until I changed the background. Now I am changing it to cobalt green. Hope that will improve the painting.

You're right, the background is somewhat cramped. It looks quite a lot like an exotic mall photograph. I'll have to darken most of the details in the background when I get a decent #0 brush.

The planes in the face are flat because I was using almost pure turpentine at the time... so they wouldn't mix and they would dry too fast. Don't make that mistake, kids!

i like it but i feel like the stars are a bit too blobby. try to get better definition - most should be small points, only a few should have a lens flare effect or a big corona. you have the skills to do it clearly, but if it's a stylistic choice i have to disagree with it. also making the stars pure white doesn't really comport with reality (i mean, it sort of does but depending on the light wavelength stars tend to appear yellow or bluish in photos, and imo that makes a better painting too).

Thank you. I agree it's my best among the works here, although when one thing is focused and achieved, the work loses other qualities, and when other things are focused and achieved, that one thing is lost - vice versa... which is why I still like the muddier version - Old Lady Seated III, as much as Old Lady Seated IV.

Oils are pretty different from acrylics in terms of workflow, but they feel a lot nicer to use.

>want to get back into oil painting

have not painted in...about three years. i was absolutely mediocre though

if I truly wanted to get back into painting...which medium should I start with?

I've got oils, tempra, watercolor. Strapped for cash, so unfortunately, no acrylics for now.

i have some shit tier canvases that you buy in bulk from basic craft stores. i'd buy some wood and stretch my own (well if i weren't strapped), but I don't think I should delve into that for now as im just getting back in. but i don't think tempra nor watercolor are good mediums for those

if you can afford like 20 bucks you can buy a good sized sketchbook or paper pad for the water colors. water colors are nice because you do a bunch of quick sketches with them, or you can spend a lot of time and get something really detailed, or do something ultra stylized with just a few colors. working not on a canvas might help relieve some of the pressure as well, since you can tear the page out and toss it if you really hate it (at least, i feel a lot more relaxed painting studies/sketches on paper).

painting is a journey though, it can be stressful but just remember that every mistake is a step on the road of improving and getting better.

you should really try to be more delicate with the paint i just get the feeling you are ruining brushes by the minute.

if you are going to do impasto, do it in smaller strokes, and really try to lay and sculpt the paint on top of the underpainting. study van gogh's work.

for as vibrant and violent van gogh's stuff seems there is a really delicate touch to his work.

of course that means you'll have to get smaller brushes and palette knives and not do these giant brushstrokes but the end result will be much nicer. as it is you seem to be pushing all the paint into the paint below it and it all blends into a muddy mess

inb4 that's on purpose

[Anonymous No.2477623]

>>2477498
i think you would have a better finished product if you gave your layers more time to dry in between painting. the bars look like garbage since they've mixed and while the main figure has definition there are certainly areas (some of the dots, the outline of her blouse) where the colors are mixing on canvas in a way that looks neither intentional nor pleasing to the eye.

i won't say i particularly like your style or direction, but if you insist on doing these sorts of paintings i think you could improve some technical aspects at least.

[Chunbum Park No.2477645]

>>2477516
>>2477623
I am trying out Frank Auerbach's style and form. I don't want no van Gogh style impressionist strokes. And if I truly wanted clean pure colors without any mixing, I would have gone acrylic. This is spontaneous and aggressive style of painting. I am not scared of little bit of mud

[Anonymous No.2477685]

The backgrounds of Auerbach are much more powerful than yours.

His best works come off the canvas. Sometimes literally.

Suggestion if you're imitating him is to use light to a higher effect.

As I said before I determine whether a critique is valid to me or not. In this case, it's not. You are telling me to paint like van Gogh, which isnt' my goal at all. Knowing that emulating Frank Auerbach is my goal, try giving more relevant critique, then I might listen.

Also working on this one, I'm enjoying it but the jaw bone is a bit muddy, my initial sketch didn't translate it well and I'm painting using both my study and the model as my reference so I've got to change a few things here and there to get to a good middle ground. Still, its been a great learning experience and I feel like I'm improving my technique but I probably have to push the values on this one more, have to let it dry a little or else I'm just pushing around medium and getting nowhere.

at the end of the day we all have to walk our own paths in life, no matter how much anyone else tells us otherwise.

"Keep on spewing communist propaganda you red commie. I am leagues ahead of you but you say what?? A failed artist is you, not me. No wonder you are so delusional liar. You wish something and it becomes real - all inside your delusional head. Keep on spewing nonsense you commie."

"Studies after studies after studies and more studies. Never a true finished work of art. You will never step out of your comfort zone like me. You can never understand or experiment with experimental art.
I can draw realistically but I choose not to. I am a free creative experimental artist. You are a delusional and close minded clown. You are no genius. You do not understand art period."

"Say whatever you will you brainwashed commie full of falsehood and delusions. I will keep posting art that far surpasses you. People will know it's a real work of art. Truth is self evident.

I will keep posting my work and reinforce my position. You should keep uttering flimsy jelly belly claims and pathetic insults"
