Hello, hivers!
Since I found myself far from home I should find almost all materials for drawing or painting from the very beginning. And it was important not to spend too much money for them.
Fortunately, I have ipad for digitals and pencils, pens for sketching.
And it’s exactly the time for me to come back to oil painting. Upper you can see samples of the colours which I bought first.
It was a basic set of Italian brend Lukas Berlin:
And I took more expensive brends for trying, which are
As you can see they are all watermixable oils, and only titanium white of them is toxic, but next time I will buy it from another brend. In Ukraine, unfortunately, I could only find watermixables of Rembrandt’s Cobra, but studying quality, not professional.
And they are really all important basic colours, which I can mix to get almost any color I want. Upper you can see how bright and glossy they can look. I have already finished my first painting and only wait for it to be framed to show you.
But my second work is about rainy day and though it’s still in progress I managed also to make it look sad and gloomy.
And though oils are the most exciting part for shopping, here you can see other important materials.
And here is the sketch of my first work this year, sunflowers.
Thanks for attention. If you have any questions or have other views I would appreciate your comments.
