Tired of stiff, tight portraits? This video is all about embracing a loose, expressive style in oil painting! Watch my process as I prioritize energy, color, and gesture over perfect detail. I demonstrate techniques for using confident brushstrokes, broken edges, and wet-on-wet blending to create a lively and immediate portrait.

This is a great tutorial for artists who want to loosen up their approach and find more freedom in their portraiture!
If you struggle to keep your paintings fresh, this technique is for you! I guide you through painting an oil portrait using a deliberate loose style. Learn how to:

Block in the Head quickly and accurately using large brushes.

Control Edges: Deciding where to keep edges sharp versus soft for a dynamic effect.

Maintain Freshness: Keeping colors clean and vibrant using minimal blending.

Let's ditch the tiny brushes and paint with confidence!
