This painting tutorial shows the process of creating a large atmospheric oil painting. Here I offer an insight into my technique and share the painting tips I learned over the years, like painting the glitter with a palette knife or flicking the brush to create the splashing effect.
Hope you will find it useful or at least entertaining.
The original seascape painting "Vision" measures 48x48 inches and is available for sale on EvaVolfSeascapes.etsy.com
I used only four oil colors to create this tender purple seascape:
titanium white, ultramarine blue, burnt umber and alizarin crimson (any red will do). I chose purple as a dominant color, brown as complementary and white as an accent.
I also used Liquin Original as a medium, but any oil or mineral spirits will do.
This painting took me 2 sessions x 4 hours and I let it dry completely for a week in between them.
I used a reference photo from a hazy morning in the Outer Banks, North Carolina.
