Here is what I share with you oil painting stick technique, welcome to read and browse.

Recognize the oil stick

Characteristics of oil stick

Oil stick can be used to organize the performance of the picture line, but also like gouache as a large area of color. It can be used to paint flat. Mixing. Point color, but also will be different shades of oil stick through the multi-layer superposition, to produce changes in the magic of the scratch painting, can also be used for printmaking topography (overlap of different colors, will become another color) and thus produce shades of the changes in intensity. For children of all ages, oil paint sticks are a great material for improving their interest in painting and their performance skills.

Basic materials:

Stick and paper

Accessory materials:

Alcohol, opaque tape, scissors, knife, palette, brushes, knives, clay tools, face towels (wet wipes), paper towels (wiping pens)

The basic techniques of the oil paint stick:

1. Line

You can directly use the edge of the pen to draw lines, so the lines are not necessarily uniform, but very natural and smooth, pay attention to the drawing of the line to try to maintain the strength of the differences.

2 flat paint

Flat paint that is evenly painted on the drawing paper a specific color. Mainly according to the shape and direction of the object. Vertical painting. Horizontal painting. Thick and thin paint. Spiral painting. Light and heavy painting techniques. Paint the colors evenly on the paper. Flat painting method can be different sizes and shapes of a variety of contrasting color block organization in the picture, the picture will appear particularly eye-catching and beautiful colors. To achieve better results, one is to outline the edges beforehand and then fill in the color inside, to avoid painting the edges; another point is in accordance with a particular direction of color, the effect will be more uniform and good-looking.

3 gradient

Gradient refers to the coloring in one or two colors on the basis of the appropriate addition of some other color transition from one color to another. Due to the special heavy texture of the oil stick, gradient is the most commonly used oil stick advanced techniques and one of the most prominent effect of the technique, the effect is that you can avoid strong changes in the color transition, making the color transition more natural and produce a sense of three-dimensionality and spatial sense. Such as apples from green to yellow, lotus flowers. Peach from pink to red changes, changes in the depth of the petals, leaves from light green to green changes, can be expressed through the color gradient

Note that gradient is usually applied to the monochrome fade or similar color gradient, does not apply to the gradient between the two colors of the contrast is obvious.

4 point color method (color juxtaposition):

Use the end of the stick on the paper to form colored dots. Points of color refers to the different colors of the dots or short lines displayed together with each other, so that the color of the picture has a richer change, the effect is similar to the European impressionist painters in the point of color method.

In the order of the color point color, follow the first light color after dark color guidelines. The juxtaposition of dots and lines, should be as dense as possible, leaving fewer blanks, can also be used from dense to sparse expression.

5 color mixing method (color overlay method):

Painted on paper before the palette can be mixed pigments. Color mixing refers to the use of a variety of colors after repeated rubbing so as to achieve a mixture, making the color block to show more and more soft and hazy rich effect.

Up and down the color superimposed on the best according to the same direction of coloring, general coloring law is superimposed on the light color dark color, or in the dark color superimposed on the light color. Beginning children, should be more in the same warm and cold in the same kind of color in the color practice.

Red and green, yellow and purple, blue and orange and other contrasting colors, superimposed on each other to produce dirty colors. This is not a good idea for beginners. For children who have been learning to paint for a long time, they have a further feeling of color, and after mastering a certain knowledge of color harmony, they can be boldly used in the sketching picture.

Another way to achieve the same effect: use alcohol to dissolve the stick, and then use the brush to brush the mixed colors on the base color, this technique produces a more transparent effect. Performance characteristics is not simply mixing or cover, but a color in the reveal another color, to achieve the effect of rich layers. Superimposed color color matching should also follow the same or similar colors can be mixed to avoid contrasting colors of the guidelines.

7 scraping method:

Sand nets. Crumpled paper. Sand grains. Sawdust collage in the cardboard required parts of the performance of certain texture similar to the picture, can also be used 8B pencil in the blow molding paper out of the pattern.

After the plate engraving is done, the paper (available Koori paper. Xuan paper. Thin filter paper) over the graphics. With various colors of oil stick on the paper back and forth, so that the graphics on the base plate is revealed on the rice paper.
