Oil paintings have a tendency to change colors in the light.
Right now it's looking way too bright, and the thing looks more like one of my aunt Zara's paintings than anything it was supposed to be. Too bad. (I think the thickness of the paint is once again at fault. I need to find a way to make my paint thin in the first place instead of it coming thick out of a tube and relying on my ability to thin it. It needs to be thin already when I'm getting to it.) Also a problem is the Stand oil takes days to dry, and pieces of hair are getting embedded into it. It's near a vent in the floor (no where else in this house to put it) so that's going to be a problem with anything I make.
But curiously, the Stand oil trick is a Renaissance trick, and it's making it look a lot more like a Renaissance painting than a Rococo painting.

I was never good with oil, I just stick with pencils. Is the painting of anyone in particular?
