Hi Kasmin, thank you. Iโ€™ve seen other artists like Cesar Santos fix his charcoal when using it on canvas, but Iโ€™ve never had issues with it darkening or making my oil paint much different. All things are always needed to be taken in context; for example, if you have a dark section you previously drew in charcoal and you attempt to paint a bright white over top, it will turn a cool grey color.

Are you ever concerned about the charcoal or chalk interacting with the oil? Beautiful painting so far by the way. I think Iโ€™ll try and experiment with a black and white photo in the future because of this, thank you

Thanks Jan, such a different scenario for me when I'm in the studio alone vs. filming. Often times I wouldn't blink an eye at the level of painting in this session. Normally it is all part of the process, though when I feel I should have something to say or to offer as a solution to a problem, that is where it gets complicated. I appreciate the feedback, all is well! We'll keep learning together! :)

Painting is such a solitary endeavor it's good to see another artist struggle. You are teaching me that when the going gets tough - just keep on going, as I tend to give up too soon. Great to see how your scrapeing and daubing brought an area together.
