Beginners Guide to Portraits in Oils.
Oil Painting Portrait of Baby Max 12 x 9"... includes realtime footage. Sharing my techniques and tips on how I develop the painting through 3 different simple colour stages. How to mix Skin Tones and more.
Max is my great, great Nephew. Max was born on 18th October 2022, he is Charlotte and Daniel's little ray of sunshine. He's a happy, smiley, content baby and the whole family adore him. He makes everyone smile, he's such a cheek character. His favourite thing at the moment is to pull everyone's glasses off Charlotte was told that she may not be able to have children so after finding out she was having a baby, a 99 hour labour and an emergency caesarean, it is safe to say Max is their little miracle.

Here is a Material list for you: I tend to use a mix of Artist's quality Windsor & Newton and Michael Harding paints. The latter being my favourite choice as he makes them like the old masters did many years ago.

Please note: if you are just starting out, and price of materials are an issue, I would recommend the Windsor & Newton *Winton series... these have the same quality pigment as the Winsor & Newton Artists series but less of it, there are more fillers and extenders in them but the quality is still there at a smaller cost... just click on any link below and search for them as the cheaper option. The more expensive option below, the benefits are, they last longer as they are super rich in pigment and they are amazing to work with.
