Scentof Lavender

The lavender fields of Provence are at their best in the last minutes before sunset, when warm light slides across the rows.

The lavender fields of Provence are at their most beautiful in the last minutes before sunset. Warm light slides softly along the flowering rows, filling the landscape with deep lilac, golden and pink. At that moment the air itself seems to become part of the picture, holding the warmth of the departing day and the fine scent of lavender. Painted in oils with brush and palette knife…

Materials

Paints

For paints we will need my classic paint set.

I work with the French paint PEBEO. You may take paint from other makers, but the shades may differ.

Below is the list of paints and their PEBEO numbers

  • titanium white25
  • lemon01
  • cadmium yellow02
  • cadmium red 05/06/07 ( choose one or all)
  • light ochre20
  • raw sienna21
  • pink37
  • madder50
  • turquoise38
  • cobalt12
  • ultramarine14
  • steel blue47
  • black24

The only color from the Ladoga / Master Class range - Raw Leningrad Umber.

Canvas

The size I will be painting on: 50x60

In the lessons I paint on linen canvases. The size is up to you. It is worth going by the ratio of the sides.

If the reference is elongated, the difference between the sides should be 20 cm or more (for example 40x60 / 50x70).

Classic rectangular formats have a 10cm difference (40x50 / 50x60)

Squares or circles you also choose according to the reference.

I do not mind if you depart from the given canvas proportions, for example, if the reference is elongated and you decide to take a square canvas.

It is always an interesting creative task.

Solvent

I paint with pure odorless pinene. If you are used to painting with oil or with triple medium, that is up to you, but I recommend taking a look at the way I build a painting.

Brushes

I use synthetic filberts. From the smallest to medium. A flat wash brush is optional. I will not be relying on them. Bristle will not be a main brush either.

Other tools may appear as the course is made; I will talk about them in the lesson, but they will not be essential.

Palette knife

I always recommend having 2-4 palette knives of different shapes.

Mikhail Mishinsky
  • Founder of the online creative school "ARTCLASS"
  • Co-founder of the painting school "Izo Project PARTA"

Back in 1996 my parents took me to a children's art school. That was how it was done - children were sent to learn to draw. But unlike my classmates at the "art school", even then I had made up my mind that painting would be my profession.

After school I went to a college of culture, where I qualified as a "Master Artist". It is the place where they taught me not only to paint, but to cross-stitch, to knot macramé, to model and to carve... In short, everything you can possibly imagine in the crafts was passed on to me there by experienced teachers.
