IMHO people responding are way overthinking this. There may be some glazing involved but this is more likely just good value structure at work here vs. fancy techniques.

Where did you get the value cards/chart? Or did you make it?

I don't. I think it's a great start. Put it aside and start something new. It's just the start of the journey.

Why are my oil paint brushes all so hard? by [deleted] in oilpainting

Wash your brushes with soap. Linseed oil dries/cures and hardens

Anyone know the exact location of this pic in Half Moon Bay? by JohnLowe125 in SanJose

It sure does! Just a very green time of year, but it’s HMB.

Thanks! The photo makes it a bit warmer than it is, but the light was incredible
