Are Water Mixable Oil Paints Better than Traditional Oil Paints?
Join me as I put the Daler Rowney Georgian water mixable oil paints to the test.
To do this I decided to not only test the differences between traditional oil paint and water mixable oil paint, but also put their painting ability to the test.
That would allow YOU to test the paint along with me and learn how to correctly use the water mixable oil paint in the process.
The course consists of four parts:
Comparing Water Mixable & Traditional Oil Paints
In part 1 we pit them against each other, side by side, to see if the water mixable oil paint reacts the same as traditional oil paint.
In the process you will learn the differences between using water mixable and traditional oil paint.
You will also learn when to add water to your paint and when to use oil.
Painting Wet in Wet with Water Mixable Oil Paint
In part 2 of the course we paint a beautiful realistic parrot.
During the class you will learn how to correctly paint wet in wet (also called alla prima) using water mixable oil paints.
You will also learn how to create the lovely feather effects and details of the bird.
All the classes in the course are step by step paint along classes where you can follow along in real time.
Glazing with Water Mixable Oil Paints
Glazing is such an incredibly versatile technique so in part 3 we test to see how well the water mixable paints fair when using them to glaze a painting.
During the class you will also learn how to turn an ordinary photo into a fabulously vibrant painting.
You will also learn how to paint the Grisaille (grey) layer.
Painting Impasto with Water Mixable Oil Paint
In part 4 of the course we test to see how the water mixable oil paints fair when painting in an impasto style (thick paint).
So for this class we pack away our brushes and have a ton of fun painting this playful rooster with a painting knife.
Will the paint retain it’s shape and height or will it slump like acrylic paint does?
Join me on the course to find out.
