And since I am the impatient sort I use a powerful blow drier to dry it. When painting BIG, over 3 ft, I always underpaint in oil.<BR/>Thanks for your thoughtful comments. I was nervous to put all my thoughts so far out there...anyone can see!

The three landmasses are well executed. How do you do an oil underpainting? Add a drying medium? was texture an issue? Great interview by the way and you stated your case well.brian eppleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13303309396470697389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2569842595006112796.post-22754467637878026362009-02-27T20:43:00.000-05:002009-02-27T20:43:00.000-05:00I enjoyed the interview.
