Broken Color This technique is applying oil paint in separate strokes of pure color without blending. If you use this technique make sure you clean your brush frequently every stroke you put down. You should use fairly thick paint so that each stroke keeps its shape on the canvas without letting the paint run down your canvas. This technique was used by some of the old masters such as Claude Monet and Vincent Van Gogh. If you look at their work closely you can see the individual strokes of colour they applied to their paintings. Frottage Frottage means to "rub" from the French language. This technique is achieved by laying a coat of paint thinned with medium, then laying over the top of the wet paint a piece of crumpled paper that has been uncrumpled. Then lift the paper. This will leave behind a textured pattern from the crumpled paper. Palette Knife Painting Using a palette knife to paint with is an exciting experience when you first try it. Especially with oil paints because they have the soft, creamy texture and can be easily manipulated without trickling or running. When you try the palette knife to paint with you will be spreading the paint around on the canvas where you want it. You can use the edge of the knife to make straight line of paint and then pull the paint out away from the edge. Another way you can paint with the palette knife is you can scrape the paint around on your canvas. Another thing you can do with the palette knife is mix your paints. I regularly use a palette knife to do this job.
