Exploring Wet-into-Wet Color with Cold Wax & Oil (Phthalo Blue Focus)

Art And Success04 Nov, 2025Business

In this episode of my Chroma Series 2, I continue exploring the interplay of color, transparency, and mark-making on Arches oil paper using cold wax and oil paint. This session focuses on Phthalo Blue, complemented by Indian Yellow, Transparent Orange, and custom grays, to discover the unexpected textures, layers, and blends that emerge when painting wet-into-wet. This series captures those creative sparks—moments that inspire new directions through tall, narrow compositions, warm–cool contrasts, and transparent–opaque layering.
