Hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone recognizes this work or could tell me if this piece resembles the work of any artist that's known. The inside of the frame measures about 34" across by 44" tall. I'm hoping it's at least an original piece, but for all I know it could be some mass produced...

The past four months I was back home living with my family and did not have access to paint. The entire four months I was drawing (I made around 350 drawings that I hope to turn into a book). I recently moved back to my place and did 5 paintings in around two weeks. I'd like to know people's...

Hi! I am new to oil painting and wanted to know from an expert if my process is okay. 1. I first start with a base drawing using Gamsol and paint on a gessoed canvas. Very thin. 2. I then have a recipe of 3 parts Gamsol, 1 part Linseed oil, and 1 part Stand oil. I add about a teaspoon of...

The Flemish style of painting has gotten my attention lately. It consists of many steps including preparing the canvas, the sketch, inking, toning, the "dead" layer, glazing and finishing up. The following video shows the general steps for completing such a painting. Hope to get better at...

Hi, I have a question regarding using genuine 22k gold leaf on oil paints. I've never used gold leaf before so this will be my first time using it. I know that the oil has to be completely dry before you add the adhesive and then the gold leaf, but my questions is - can i apply adhesive and...

I received this painting from a friend who passed away. Any idea who this R. Frost is? I can't find him on google so maybe someone here can identify him? The only R. Frost I know of is Robert Frost lol.

Hi everyone! I haven't been on here in a while, so I thought I'd just pop back and check up on what people have been up to. Seen some great things so far! I haven't been up to too much. Still drawing, still painting. No idea how to sell my stuff or even get noticed; but here's what I've...

Good Morning! My name is Annette. I am a nail artist. I have recently jumped to canvas. I just painted my first oil paint, using a palette knife and a small brush. I loved how it came out but it needs more. Can I use acrylic paint to paint on an oil canvas? Or would I need to use oil on oil?

Hello everyone! I've posted a link to some of my earliest oil paintings and would love it if you could give me some feedback on it. My style has changed quite a bit since then but am currently considering using some of those elements in my latest works. Thanks...
