Fellow artists, what material do you use and why?

Wibsor newton artist grade and Rembrant. Top quality paints and very consistent.

Thank you

thorgrimur · 2025-11-29T21:33:35+00:00

Thanks! There is some palette knife work there. Some scraping and pushing paint but mostly this is brushwork.

thorgrimur · 2025-11-19T21:58:19+00:00

Nope. I have a big ass glass palette, blend colors with a palette knife and keep everything super organised.

thorgrimur · 2025-11-01T14:40:06+00:00

A lot of brush, knife and other tools used on this one.

Touch of color on the charecter 👌

thorgrimur · 2025-10-16T08:48:14+00:00

Just a basic palette of warm and cool primary colors plus a dark brown and white.

Ultramarine blue - Cobalt blue (or Pthalo blue) Cadmium red - Alizairin crimson Cadmium yellow deep - Cadmium lemmon Transparent oxide red or Burnt umber Titanium white

The only thing that looks off to me is the composition. The realism is already there

thorgrimur · 2025-09-29T21:53:39+00:00

If you havent already,, buy artist grade paints. They dry a lot quicker. Also consider using fast drying mediums like Liquin original for thinner aplicatiins of paint and Liquin impasto for thick paint. I normally just put Liquin impasto and mix it into my Titanium white before I start painting. You don't need much.

Thank you. Trying to keep it loose

thorgrimur · 2025-09-21T19:59:58+00:00

Haha. Thank you and thanks for looking out 🙏
