Advanced Still Life with Indirect Method
The entire 6-week process of painting Venus was filmed in close-up detail. Watch in gorgeous hi-definition as the painting develops through:
Preparatory pencil drawing
Graphite transfer to smooth gesso panel
Transparent umber underpainting called “open grisaille” or imprimatura
Color underpainting called “dead-color” or ébauche
Color layers including scumbling and glazing techniques
In this flawlessly edited 4.5-hour video course every step is shared, no stage is skipped, and Sadie narrates with voice-over to share every technique she uses and decision she makes throughout the process. The camera focuses on details over extended periods of working time, so the viewer can clearly see exactly how Sadie holds the brush, mixes and applies the oil paint to create her effects of stunning realism.
