Painting on a Black Canvas. Tips and Techniques

Hello Friends!
I have been on a black canvas kick lately and have also been playing around with and art technique called tenebrism. This is my first attempt at trying to create the spotlight effect. Overall, I think it went pretty well although I think I could do better after some practice.
To be honest, I kind of liked it better in grayscale than in color, but maybe that's just me.
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed the video even though I was super congested and sniffled a bit through the voiceover. Tis the season for colds.
I wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving!!! And I am thankful for all of you!

I love it when you say..."I want to experiment with..." then create a masterpiece. 😕 Your generosity in sharing your process does not go unrecognized. Thanks!

Love the hair > branches concept and using the black. I admire how you move from sketch to detail so instinctively, even using different techniques. Thank you!

I love how you take a reference photo as a jumping off point and just make it your own with a creative twist. That blue/orange combo is a favorite of mine. Wonderful piece! I'd heard of chiaroscuro but not tenebrism so thanks for that info 👍👍 Hope you feel better soon.

@lydiabroderick867 8 месяцев назад

Thank you so much Diane! I love the blue/orange combo as well. ❤❤❤

Beautiful as always and I think I am going to try a black background in acrylics. I have done a few oils in the past with dark backgrounds, as I love that look too, but I have yet to try in acrylics. You have inspired me yet again, thanks ☺️.

Love the art and process. But I love the art lessons of technique also.

@catherinevangass4927 8 месяцев назад

Beautiful, love the concept and imagery, moving from autumn to winter!! 👌🏻🙌🏻🎨💖 I did quite a few horse portraits and nudes on a black surface. I literally felt as if I was revealing the image by painting in the light. Bonus, the artwork always popped😁.

Lydia i loved that you continue to explore and experiment. The concept of the shift of the seasons would be cool to try again with all 4 of the seasons. What do you think?

@lydiabroderick867 7 месяцев назад

I love that idea!!!😃❤

@John__67 8 месяцев назад

Being sick sucks. So……..stop it. Contrasts in the painting works wonderfully. Love the use of term “chiaroscuro” - out of the darkness of obscurity (see what I did there?)

@lydiabroderick867 8 месяцев назад

Thank you!! I do see what you did there😁

@sandyshinno4050 8 месяцев назад

Love your work and enjoy learning from you. A question? How did you trace your sketch on to the black canvas. Thank you for sharing.

@lydiabroderick867 8 месяцев назад

I use saral paper. You can purchase on Amazon.🤗

@MysticDawnArt 8 месяцев назад

Really interesting technique! Turned out beautiful! Question: when glazing with oils, what medium do you use and what proportions of medium to oil paint (approximately)? Love this! Thanks for being such an inspiration! 🤩😍🤩

@lydiabroderick867 8 месяцев назад

Hi there! I use Galkyd gel medium by Gamblin. I don't really measure the amounts for glazing. I eyeball it til I achieve the desired transparency. A little oil paint goes a long way when glazing.😊

@MysticDawnArt 8 месяцев назад

@@lydiabroderick867 Thank you Lydia! I have Galkyd Lite, so I will keep playing with it. 😊

@missbehaving4710 3 месяца назад

do you varnish and if so which do you use when there's a combination of oil and acrylic?

@jennaparise370 5 месяцев назад

Hello! I looove this so much! I found you in hopes that i could learn some tricks to get started on painting on a black canvas. Would you mind sharing the oil glaze you used? I've only ever worked with acrylic paint. Thank you!

@lydiabroderick867 5 месяцев назад

I used transparent oil paint and Galkyd gel medium by Gamblin.🙂

@kavyan_art 8 месяцев назад

Mam which colour use

@judywebster7972 8 месяцев назад

Fascinating. It looked like she was wearing a hood, which I really liked, until you highlighted the top of her hair, also if you just glazed the face with oils, wouldn't that part look shiny compared with the rest of the painting

@lydiabroderick867 7 месяцев назад

I glazed the other half as well with Paynes gray. I also varnish my paintings, so that makes the finish uniform either way.😊
