Painters Tip

Loosen up with Brush Warm Ups

When you get in the studio start with a brushwork warm up

When holding your brush avoid holding your brush like a pencil too close to the bristles. Oil brushes are made long for a reason so that you can paint further away from the canvas. Practice holding the brush toward the middle and end of the handle. Change hands once in a while.

Practice :

long strokes

short choppy strokes

diagonal

circle

edge of brush

flat of brush

painting from the bottom up

from the top down

left to right

right to left

washy fluid paint

thick paint

Perpendicular strokes

strokes with the brush parallel to your canvas

After you do these silly little things, get on with the serious business of painting.
