I have used Polychromos for underdrawing, works for me. They stay where you put them, and in a color of your choice so you can easily block in areas gently with colored pencil and then paint over it without it negatively impacting the color you will need in that area. They are slightly indelible, so may be visible through glazes (good for underdrawing then covering with a transparent imprimatura or verdaccio approach). There is no strike through issue to be aware of, no graphite in them. The binder being oil means that oil can be used as a solvent for Polychromos, allowing some amount of blending with the paints themselves. You can blend Polychromos with oil on most surfaces (there are a few that are simply too absorbent and will soak up the oil and colored pencil pigments too fast to move them around, certain clay grounds exhibit this effect).

Charcoal blends with, and integrates with the ingredients of the first oil paint layer that you apply, and there is nothing contained in Charcoal that is not also contained in Ivory Black oil paint. It is totally compatible with oil paint.

Well it is a very minimal amount of wax, but I generally do not like wax under oil as it is normally more flexible than dried oil layers. Most artists agree that one wants more flexible layers over less flexible ones, but this is a minor case and there was once wax added to paints for stabilizing the paints for shelf life so it probably is not much of an issue really.

Let's take it a step back and start with the sketch to help you visualize the basic shapes. This is a simple tutorial for beginners and we will look at four different shapes: spherical, star, trumpet, and bowl shape flower sketches.

Charcoal Sketch is a dark, charcoal gray color with neutral undertones and part of the Then, Now & Forever Collection. Almost black, this deep neutral gray was inspired by the artistic form of charcoal sketching, a favorite medium of art collectors for centuries. Contrast Charcoal Sketch with a crisp white for a clean, modern aesthetic.

I'm still relatively new to painting, and I find sometimes I just paint and create as I go along, and other times if I have a concept, I sketch it out multiple times and paint smaller studies before attempting the final large version. I also source a lot of images online, or take photos for inspiration, and make notes about certain ones (i.e., I like the way the light reflected off the hood of this car, I like the way the snow melted and created this shape and shadow, I like the way the clouds formed this pattern, etc.).

I know Fresco has a lasso selection tool, which was missing in Sketch. But, if say, I have painted a shape, and I want to try it in different colors or paint inside it, how can I do this without retracing the shape with the lasso? There mas be a way to select a layer so that anything you paint in that layer does not go outside the shapes that are already in it?

You need the object to be on its own layer and then choose lock transparency so you can only paint on the pixels already coloured. I have found the selection tool to be very cumbersome and want the lasso tool as in ps

Do you wonder how to go about actually starting your painting? What steps to take to bring it beyond a blank canvas? Well, you are in the right place because here we will go over what surface to start your painting on and how to sketch out your painting on your canvas. So you will get started on the right foot with your painting.

However, before starting your sketch you first need to put a light color wash over the canvas. This is also called imprimatura, which is Italian for first paint layer and looks like a color stain on the painting ground. After the color wash is in place, you are ready to sketch out your painting. Doing a color stain on your canvas is hugely beneficial as it helps you to see value much more easily than on a stark white canvas.

Once you have your imprimatura on your canvas you are ready start sketching out your painting! I find it best to use a paintbrush and paint to sketch out a painting, instead of using a pencil. It is important to be able to change the drawing around as you get into your painting and by using paint you will be to do this quite easily.

So, do not mix up too much paint for yourself as you will not be needing a lot. I often use left over paint from creating my imprimatura. Also, I recommend using a small stubby paint brush. The stubbier the paint brush the more it will feel like a pencil!

In the example, I look for the hills that are in front of the horizon line. Generally, I am looking for and trying to capture the large areas that make up the landscape painting. Focus yourself on getting the big picture and capturing the general shapes of your subject in your painting.

Now, that the initial part of the landscape underdrawing is there, it is time to put in the rest! In the image above you can see that I sketched in with my paintbrush, the foreground line as well as the additional hills in the middle section of the landscape.

So, as you paint, to help create a more realistic painting, you will be able to remeasure elements and put them in their correct placement. A basic underdrawing such as the one outlined in this post, gives you the chance to see your composition in full. As well as helps to give you a general idea of the placement of things in your painting.

Again, do not be afraid to move things around a little bit if necessary as you paint. The painting process should always involve self correction at every step. The preliminary drawing you make on your canvas should always just be a basic and general guideline.

Another important thing worth noting is that you can pay attention to value when creating these painting sketches. Notice how some of the lines are darker while others are lighter. The darker lines signify areas that are darker in value. So, you can make value notations even when sketching out your painting!

The beginning of a painting is crucial as it affects how a painting turns out in the end. Put these lessons to practice and start your painting by sketching it out on canvas first. Leave a comment in the section below and let me know how your painting sketch goes!

Hi Danielle, That is a good question. Value plays a much bigger role than anything else when using a black canvas versus a white canvas. In general, your painting will likely turn out darker than usual as everything you place on it will look very very light against the black surface. The sense of light that one gets with a black surface is different than a lighter value surface. I hope that helps!

Thank you! You just solved a problem for me. I am planning a painting involving mountain landscape with portraiture. No more thumbnail sketches for me. It is so much more meaningful to work right on the canvas.

oh that is great! I am sure they would be delighted with some paintings! I am in the midst of creating more articles for beginners. But in the meantime there is a beginning painting guide that might be helpful.

One of the advantages of working from sketches is that it allows you to be less literal when it comes to producing a painting from them, particularly if there has been a long time lapse between making the sketch and tackling the painting.

I sometimes make sketches simply for the enjoyment of it and to experience the atmosphere of a time and place. On other occasions I make sketches with the intention of producing a painting, and this usually occurs within a day or two. But this detailed sketch (below) was made in a sketchbook on a trip to the Caribbean more than a year ago. Returning to it recently, I decided to create a painting with a particularly Caribbean feel, using bright colours applied in a loose painterly way.

I chose Winsor & Newton Griffin Fast Drying Oil Colours for this, an alkyd paint which I have often used when working outside. The drying times are quicker than ordinary oils but slower than acrylic, which gives me just enough time to put down what I want. Had I used traditional oil paint, it would have been difficult painting the small red lettering on the trailer on top of wet oil paint, but with the alkyd it was dry enough the next day. The slightly unrealistic colour scheme of blue and green evokes the memory of that hot, sunny day when I produced the sketch.

1 I PRIMED an MDF board with three coats of acrylic gesso, each rubbed down slightly between applications. This produced a semi-absorbent surface with just enough tooth to stop the paint sliding over the surface. I washed over this with a thin blue-black mix using paint left on my palette from a previous session.

As the sketch had lots of white space around it, I extended the painting to the edges of the board. I also enlarged the image so that the trees on the left were less dominant and bled off the top of the board. Some foliage and corrugated iron was added on the right-hand side. Beginning with the sky, which is usually the area in the lightest tone, I began blocking-in the various sections.

2 ESTABLISHING the tone of the sky first allowed me to determine how light or dark to make the other elements in the picture. I added patches of colour here and there, which even at this stage gave me a clue as to how well they related to each other. By working the whole painting in this way, nothing is set in stone early and colours can be adjusted at any time. Apart from the sky and road, I also added a little purple into the blues of the shack, the trailer, and the tree trunks, which unifies as this is the main focus of the composition.

3 UP UNTIL THIS POINT, the paints were thinned with turps and used quite dilute. Here I began to work thicker as I introduced clouds into the sky. The sketch indicated that the sun was almost directly above and a little over to the left, so I introduced some stronger shadows and highlights to suggest this. To add variety, I made the tree on the right-hand side a different species to those on the left. The dark shape to the right gave the sense of a turn in the road, going downhill and towards the viewer. ff782bc1db
