I find that this approach works well. – Underpaint the windows with a dark value, then add the appropriate “sky color” into it, whether it’s blue sky or sunset colors. This suggests glass and reflections. Go to my website and look at the buildings on my “COMMISSIONED ARTWORK” page. You’ll see how I did them.

I’m just very busy with my class/ workshop schedule. I’m also working to produce my own signature line of paints, brushes, palette, etc.
In addition to the 8 clips I’ve produced and posted here, have you seen the 17 more of my lessons that Jerry’s Aratama has posted? “Search” my name on YT to bring them ALL up.

@Benbow530
Well, part of it depends on what type of plastic it’s made from. Some palettes tend to stain and some don’t. I just scrape off the excess paint with my palette knife and wipe it down with thinner on a paper towel.

The basecoat allows me to work “wet-in-wet”, thus making blending easier. This is not the only painting approach I use, though. Sometimes, I use a more traditional style utilizing underpainting and glazing.

nice. TY for the tips. when you know what you are doing it looks easy and works fast : ) and Ps. alltough im not new at all to painting but i havent used the basecoat thing EVER so is it the same thing as using linseed oil or whatever but on a larger scale ? cos i only use oil for particular layers,colors and spots, but never for the whole canvas.

So, is there a certain thing to use as a basecoat?

The medium I’m …
The medium I’m referring to is a baecoat ( sometimes clear, sometimes white ) which I apply to the canvas at the start of a painting. It wets the canvas down and allows the next layers of paint to glide on more easily and allows for any blending and softening which needs to be done.

I know this may …
I know this may sound dumb, but I’m new to oil painting. Actually, I’ve never used oil pants before. So I have no clue what some of this stuff is. For instance, what is this “medium” thing you talk about in all your videos. And do you have to put a base coat always? What does it do? If you could help me it would be much appreciated.
