Oil and Water


My latest illustration created for an illustration technique demo video. Oil drawing transfer technique. Watercolor resists the oil drawing on the paper. Sometimes oil and water do mix.

On something like this, do you paint in the background first, then the portrait over it?

Hi! It’s a bit of a back and forth process. I have a quick 6 minute demo video on the creation of this illustration. You can check it out here: https://youtu.be/I9pxGqeRYr0 @okat

@davidterrillkc Just watched the video! It was really cool to see the process and watch it come to life. It's definitely an interesting technique between the tracing paper, oil, and water mixture mashup. Love the results.
