    Perfect werk weer.
    Ook ik werk nat in nat, maar bij mij lopen de contrasten terug in de loop der dagen. Als ik hem onder de lamp droog ook. Hoe voorkom je dat???
    Moet er altijd na een paar dagen weer overheen, nat in droog

    I also work wet into wet, but I walk the contrasts back over the day. If I put it under the lamp too dry. How do you stop??
    Should always over after a few days, wet into dry

    Thanks Marc! Much appreciated.:)

    In the beginning I had the same problem, because you always lose some of your contrasts when it's dry, and because we allways are affraid to go to far with them.
    But after the years I've bin painting now, I have learned that you have to go further with your contrasts,
    if you don't want to go back to much the day after.
    If you think that your contrast are good once painted, you have to push it some more and give it a little extra,
    Sometimes, I must go back the day after to put a little more highlights, but that's only sometimes.
    Hope this helps,

    Cheers,
    Eddy

    A really nicely painted bust and beautiful colours used. Being a fellow "oily" I shall have to get some brown madder if it gives results like this.
