It's similar to using a credit card in acrylics...but I'm still wondering about the paints. Are you thinning the oil paints? I hear a swish swish in the bucket, but I don't get to see what exactly you are doing with the paint itself. It looks thinned in the beginning? is that straight thinner or do you add a bit of linseed oil? I see the full paints go on later, but wondering about the first parts of the video and what's going on with the paint itself. Thanks for your reply! Can't wait to start!Lynne Furrerhttp://www.lynnefurrer.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-22435844224033870592014-06-11T14:58:47.785-06:002014-06-11T14:58:47.785-06:00Julie, I have seen your paintings using the fractu...Julie, I have seen your paintings using the fracturing technique and I loved what I saw.

Right after that I am going to set and try doing your fracture on some fruit still life so I can see what happens clearly for me. I am already doing the landscapes so loose that if I fracture them I think the color will turn to mud. (Very loose wet acrylic, almost watercolor) Your pots are awesome!! What a great demonstration to illustrate what can happen. And both versions are sooo lovely! thank you, dear lady!Lavonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07533655808008196419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-4011576218988526002013-02-23T10:15:16.979-07:002013-02-23T10:15:16.979-07:00What a lovely comment.

You learn and get inspired from a lot of persons , but you should always stay true to yourself and not become a clone of someone else . Like someone said , learn - and move on !

Some famous plein-air artists participated and as I went round to watch them paint, I could see the individuality of each artist. Hanging night was a different story. They all looked the same, when framed and hung on the wall. Only two artists who had very different techniques stood out. The individual ones were NOT the best artists but it certainly struck home with me when I could not discern my fav artist's work. Have I told you this story before?<br />I rambled too, but love the dialog.juliefordoliver.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07186754679744000743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-23034921387063664342013-02-22T16:05:17.057-07:002013-02-22T16:05:17.057-07:00Thanks for the lovely comment on the turnips.
