Oil paintings skill-1

An example (Figure) of oil painting techniques: the technique of hitting figure| Model One | – Richard • SiQimiDe, the human body painting.

        Model one: The thin drawing for single light and dark painted color
         We can see from the following four model works, My definition of ” hitting figure ” is different from the definition of the dictionary, the definition of dictionary is ” The draft that only has a rough outline rather than details”, But my defination is ” The draft that has necessary details and an accurate outline”.

When hitting figure, I am particularly care about the accuracy and details. A draft can be painted in a lively ,natural, and accurate way. The idea that paying attention to the length,shape and accuracy of colors will affect the live effect of picture is groundless.The truth is that if artist draw more accurately in the primary stage,It is more likely to have successful works. But this simple truth is often forgotten or ignored.I once met various complicated problems and made all mistakes when I draw life-size human body painting in my student period,Later I came to understand one painting can’t be finished in one time,It must be finished in many times.And the best brushwork did begin to describe the object’s obvious relationship between light and dark,shape and color. Every object has the darkest, light, shadow parts, or a colored area of geometric shape, I firstly draw these partial parts because they are most obvious and favourable to draw in an accurate manner.In initial time, If artist draw more these accurate parts, It’s easier for them to deal with these parts that are difficult to manage.
