Introducing Andrew Whyte...
Hiya!
I am Andrew Whyte and welcome to my FREE 'Oil Painting for Beginners'
Tutorial. I was very fortunate to be born in New Zealand during
the 60's and began painting from an early age. Since 1993 I have
been producing landscape paintings of New Zealand for sale with
a modest level of success. By success I mean I have made a few welcome
dollars along the way, which has enabled me to follow my passion
and develop my painting style. A style I would like to share with
you! Above all; success is enjoying my painting and sharing my talents.
In this tutorial I will briefly cover some of the things you will
need to begin oil painting and some of the basic principles of painting
in oils.
Some people think that painting in oils is a messy business with
smelly fumes and hard to clean up. Well YES! that can be right but
how often do you say that about a nice roast dinner? Oil paints
are not as convenient as acrylics but the flexibility and texture
is well worth it. If you are like me and take ages producing a painting
then you will love the way oil paint stays wet for a long time and
you can save the paint in the freezer for future use, so wastage
is minimal. Oil paint is proven to stand the test of time and an
oil painting carries a prestige value.
Enjoy my ebooks and above all enjoy your painting.
