  10. Hi Kimie, thanks!

    Hi Bertrand, thanks!


    Aleksei...it depends on the gray..but I like to mix ultramarine, cobalt or prussian blue + sepia, burnt sienna or burnt umber.


    Thanks, David!

  11. Olá Fabio, a sua técnica é muito apurada. Sua pintura é transparente, leve e precisa. Moro em Berlin e gostaria de frequentar um dos seus cursos em julho. Entrarei em contato via e-mail.

  13. Thank you for sharing this! I'm going to go over it again more slowly! I'm surprised at your brushes, though; couldn't explain why. Do you always paint on the same paper? Would you mind giving us the name?

  16. Fábio!

    The thing I love the most about the white lilly flowers painting is the background.

    A lot of lines and shapes and muted colors keep the backdrop as visually interesting as the flowers themselves.

    Good job with that!

  20. Hi Cathy! Why are you so surprised with my brushes? I use only synthetic brushes...I don't like marta brushes..and I prefer flat brushes.
    About the paper: Artches, 300 - 600 g/m, rough, made in France by Canson. Sometimes...I use Fabriano 100% cotton, Guarro (Spain) or Montval (by Canson..for studies).
    Hope I 've helped you. Please, if you have any questions, ask me again. Thank you for your visit, your comments. You're always welcome.
