Another bottle in progress...

Started this little guy today, it's an 8 x 10 canvas panel which I oil primed myself last week. I've never worked on oil primed canvas, and I have to say that having tried it, I may never go back. The surface is much more receptive to oil paint, letting  your initial brush strokes sit up on the surface rather than being sucked up by the canvas - this makes starting a painting a lot easier and definitely more fun. If you've never painted on an oil primed surface either, I highly suggest that you give it a try.

  1. What type of oil did you prime your canvas with and how did you apply it? Thank you.
