@adam_stevens_artist: 3:30 am painting session. I always start with an underpainting. This allows me to create a sense of atmosphere and light in a freeing and loose layer. Big brushes and gestural strokes with no worries of color mixing or details. Some of this will be visible in the final piece, which gives these areas some gritty randomness that would be impossible to purposely paint. 12x24” oil on linen. #oilpainting #paintingprocess #forest #landscapepainting #artistsoftiktok
