I use frisket mainly for highlights or to keep paint from mixing. Thanks again.Byrne Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07483285005782515422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6770277846591515435.post-85582763758999765862009-07-14T17:16:53.505-05:002009-07-14T17:16:53.505-05:00Thanks very much for these tips.

Normally, I know artists learn to do their works by letting their talent lead them on, meaning they are the ones to discover their own techniques and styles in the process. Using the frisket is something I've never tried before. But one technique I have discovered for myself is using an underpainting, which is a wash of one color I cover the entire painting with, and then work my way to defining each element from here onwards. It gives the whole piece a sense of unity. Again thanks for your tips.moony sopranohttp://www.buytramadolonline.canoreply@blogger.com
