A lot you asked me which brand of paint I use. I make my own paint. It´s made of pure pigment and linseed or safflower oil in organic quality. There are no fillers in like plaster, chalk, baryt or wax. Also there are no additional things in like siccatives. Only the pure pigment und oil, like the Old Masters did. So I made some more tubes of oils which you can buy in my shop: This painting is one of my Caravaggio exercises. It is painted with selfmade oilcolour. The main colours are Umber and Boneblack for the background, Leadwhite, Siena and Venetian Red for the skintones and Lapislazuli and Verditer for the greenbluish part of the trousers. Like all my paintings it is done in several layers. I´m only painting over it, when the layer is completely dried. That takes about 1-3 days, depending on the colour and medium. Hope you enjoy the video!
