    Oils over acrylics became for me the standard way to go. You get the best part of both worlds. You even spend less money (since acrylics is cheaper and you can make all the large blocks on it)... I make the larger forms of every element in acrylics, make the 3 initial light levels on it as well. The only tricky part is deciding exactly the moment to jump from one into the other.

    Just about a month ago, I started using this system of acrylic first and then the oil paint on top and it's superb. Now I have the best of both worlds Just done a seascape and I needed to blend the sky from light blue to dark blue which is not easy to do with acrylic, but the oil paint blends very well After that I needed to sort out the sea and that meant using oil as a glaze with "licquin" and that gives much more depth to the sea
    I'd never go back to using acrylic just on it's own. I look at some of my earlier work and now I can see that I need to go back and give them the oil paint treatment to give them that lovely gloss finish and depth.
    Great video, and I'm certain that this information will help many artists to dramatically improve their work

    Hello, you are really talented! It's always a pleasure to follow your videos. For the first time, though, I have a question I would like to ask you: I painted an oil painting using an extremely thin layer of color. It dried almost completely in just a few days. Do you think it would be wrong to use acrylic paints on top of the painting in this case, solely to create metallic effects that I can't achieve with oil paints (because I can't find the right metallic oil colors on the market)? Thank you so much!!!

    I thought it was possible to paint an entire picture in acrylic and then to use tiny amounts of oil paint only on certain areas of the painting basically as highlights and I was told by certain arty people yes you can do that. So I looked into what varnishes you should use for acrylic paintings and it turns out they're completely different from oil painting varnish and that there's no one varnish suitable for both, which surely means the technique I wanted to use would not be possible. Because you can't varnish it. Am I right or wrong? Can anyone please advise me...? Many thanks!🖌️
