Neil Patterson - From the Beginning category:
Unlike usual oil paint practice, the first stroke of my brush adds the lightest light, and from there I work backwards to the darkest dark. (Neil Patterson)
Neil Patterson - From the Colour category:
Each colour is applied to the canvas in relation to the colours next to it. The painting becomes a living thing and calls out for the colour it wants. (Neil Patterson)
Neil Patterson - From the Ideas category:
The best way to murder a painting is to have a preconceived idea of how it is going to turn out. (Neil Patterson)
Neil Patterson - From the Oils category:
Unlike usual oil paint practice, the first stroke of my brush adds the lightest light, and from there I work backwards to the darkest dark. (Neil Patterson)
Neil Patterson - From the Texture category:
A smooth paint surface will reflect light and a rough surface will absorb light. A smooth surface will also attract the eye, because it reflects more light... Thicker paint will attract the eye more than thin paint, because the thick layer of paint appears closer to the observer. (Neil Patterson)
