Oil Painting Process Post #2

In my project I have finished my grisaille underpainting, and I am currently working on glazing the color in. I really enjoyed working on the underpainting and I think it went well. My favorite things about oil paint is that you can easily paint over mistakes, and that the paint takes a long time to dry so you can blend things well. What I need to work on next is finishing my glazing. Since starting to glaze I think it more difficult than I thought it would be, because it's hard to tell when the glaze is thin enough to leave a color but not overpower the underpainting. However, I have only just started glazing, so it might get easier as I continue. I am super excited to see my painting in color! Overall, I think that this unit will continue to be one of my favorite things we have done this year.
