Serbian (oil version)

Comments

It's turned out really well Cesare. I used oils when I first started painting and I loved it, but it too far to long to dry.

Your oils are as good Cesare. An all-rounder.

Nice and bold Cesare. I like the use of blue in the portrait.

You get realistic features Cesare whichever medium you use. Great colours too.

I really like your oils, Cesare. There;s so much personality in this portrait, and the bold, vibrant brushwork is super.

Lovely work, Cesare! You've made me want to get my water solubles out.

Water-soluble oil with brush and palette knife on Canson canvas paper 30 x 42 cm. This is my attempt at an oil portrait I made a while ago in watercolour.
