No 168

A talented MFPA member and mouth artist describes her careful process for creating this charming still life painting in oils.

- Kate Frawley

Green Tea

STEP ONE

I prime a 10 x 12 inch canvas board and tape it around the edges. I do this so that my artwork appears photographic and sharp. I divide the canvas (in this instance into background and foreground). Using Van Gogh Ultra Marine oil paints, I loosely fill in the top portion of my canvas; and I fill in the bottom area with a mixture of white and Yellow Ochre.

STEP TWO

Using a small brush and Art Spectrum Wax Medium, I load my Number 1 brush with Burnt Umber and sketch in three teapots. They juxtapose each other to create interest and form the mid-ground.

STEP THREE
