Hi darlings! Today I will be showing you guys how I prepare for oil painting, a long multi-step process that includes the concept sketching, digital painting, photo editing, printing, taping... the list goes on! There are so many tasks to finish before the painting part even begins and I will try my best to go over all of them. Hope you find this useful! ❤

xoxo,
Happy

I'm an oil painter/illustrator/cat mom living in Seattle. I am in love with oil painting, but I also dabble in drawing, watercolor, colored pencil, and always looking to learn new mediums! I post my painting and illustration time lapses, art tutorials for beginners (including oil painting techniques, drawing techniques, and art career advice), and various artist studio vlogs for your enjoyment. ❤️
