This is the second portrait I did as a prize for Okian’s competition. The first one was Nasti. I added again some blue dry brush oil. Not such a big effect this time, but I think that dry oil technique suites the best with the pencils on this Starthmore Smooth paper.
Add Jullia to your circles
It’s beautiful as always Jullia.. love the close-up photos you take.
Thank you Trish! Indeed, I noticed that taking photos to my portraits is more interesting and they are more alike the real life drawing.. in the scan version there are always bad contrasts.
Fantastic,nice work Julia!
I would like to ask,what kind of oils did you use and what you add to mixing oil paint when drawing a portrait? Do you have any video to see how you use dry pencil technique?
Thank you
Ernest
I used normal oils, no special treatment, and I don’t mix them with anything. In this portrait I used the oils only for the blue hat. The rest of it is made in pencils. You can search on youtube for dry brush technique, there are a few videos. The pencils are already dried ;))
