Hello friends!
Today I'm taking you through my process for painting a portrait with acrylics and oils on the same canvas. The most important thing to remember is that you can paint oil on top of acrylic, but not the other way around. Also, the acrylics need to be completely dry before you apply oils.
Creating an underpainting with acrylics is a great way to speed up the process if you want to create an oil painting, but don't want to wait long periods of time between layers.
I used a 12x16 inch canvas and used Golden Open Acrylics for the entire underpainting.
I apologize for the reflection coming off of the paint for a portion of this video. I didn't realize it until I was editing.
I hope you enjoy the video and please feel free to leave any questions in the comments!
