Painting Technique: VOKA Mona Lisa

Every once in a while I like to post a video of an artist at work just so you can see technique. This artist calls his technique Spontaneous Realism. I’m not sure what that means exactly (I know what the words mean, just not how it applies to the art.) I love his layering of color. He doesn’t just use the expected colors. It’s sort of the every crayon in the box thing I love so much. The  results in my opinion are spectacular. It takes guts for any artist to tackle an iconic piece like the Mona Lisa. VOKA does a great job. Let his technique inspire you to pick up your “brushes” and create.

Amazing Brush Technique

I was mesmerized by this artist’s brush technique. Watch how he paint’s the dragon’s body. How might you apply this technique to what you do?
