Interesting. I've tried Alla Prima, but I haven't found it that easy to work with when using water-soluble oils. During winter I have no way of ventilating my apartment to use paint thinners.

How many layers is your usual master study?

The forest scene at top right is my favorite. It has great use of light & shadow and color. Really looks like sun is hitting those rocks at the front and the forest expands further into the distance.

We recently decided not to allow AI stuff:

Please keep posts to non-AI generated art only.

This could be a a map in Thief 1.

Somehow this feels more vertical that the other works by you. I wonder if it's because of the darker spot at the top giving this a sense of depth?

Have you ever tried a non-rectangular paper? I wonder what that would look like?

Do we have anything that can make use of such tags? I don't really see the purpose unless there's a programmatic way to filter based on them. Right now many people already write the medium in the title if they want.

I'm inclined to say no to AI art, although i'd call it a grey territory to use AI for the first pass and then paint on top of that. However, I'll just say no to all AI for now.

Are you using pre-framed canvases, by the way? I got myself a roll of canvas and just leave my oil paintings lying around until I can get around to buying some carpentry & stapling tooling to build frames.

Your diligence is an inspiration.

This is incredible! The more I look at it, the more amazed I am by it.
