How I Paint Realistic Portraits in Oil | updated process & tips

Tavsif:

In this video, I’m sharing the process of painting ‘Tempo’ — a 70 × 100 cm mixed-media portrait that I create with oil paint, acrylics, and oil pastels on canvas. I demonstrate how I work the realistic face, beginning with the eye area and using a wet‑on‑wet technique. I also discuss recent changes to my workflow, including the use of odorless mineral spirits and incorporating acrylics and pastels. Whether you are just getting started or are refining your technique, this video shows how to build a portrait step by step while remaining open to experimentation.
