Painting with oils is a sensuous experience.
Pushing dollops of saturated color glossy with linseed oil, scraping areas clean to show areas of underpainting, layering translucent glazes to deepen and heighten the effect. What daring adventure!
I love its richness, the magic that occurs between the layers of work, but I am a restless painter in oils.
Personally prone to capturing a fleeting perception or a momentary feeling, I'm often reined in at a gallop by oil demanding patience. Patience, to slowly conjure forth the essence, the emotional truth of what has been undertaken.
Ah, but what a delicious struggle it is!
