Red pepper study (2025) - Oil on panel 12x12cm
Curious how I finished this painting? Iโve added the steps on how I do this:
1. I first block in the colors roughly. I pick a thick haired brush to achieve a rougher finish.
2. Once blocked in, itโs easier to compare the image with the result. I purposefully stand at arms length. This method allows me to get the general tones right first without losing myself too much in the details.
3. Finally I take a fine small brush to refine the details. Depending on how refined I want them to be I might let the painting dry first. With this one, I kept it rough, so I painted wet-in-wet.
4. Result.
Thanks to @GoldfishThumb1 for suggesting adding some tutorials.
