The Art of Refinement: How I Add Detail to My Oil Paintings

In this video, I delve into the nitty-gritty of refining oil paintings by adding intricate details to already dried works. Join me as I demonstrate step-by-step how to enhance a Plein air study that has been maturing for 6 months.

Throughout the tutorial, I’ll share practical tips and techniques for identifying likes and dislikes in your work as a foundation for improvement. We’ll explore the concept of creating color anchors to establish a solid starting point and then expanding from these anchors to infuse your painting with depth and intricacy.

Whether you’re a seasoned artist looking to fine-tune your technique or a beginner eager to delve into the world of oil painting refinement, this video offers actionable insights to help you elevate your art to the next level.
