This is NOT veil painting. Proper veiling works with a falling lip of water to create crystal clear overlapping surfaces which you only ever paint using the natural fall of gravity. This artist's veils are muddy and blurred, she paints 'uphill' with technique more akin to drawing.
Thank you for commenting. I was trained in the Beppe Assenza veil painting method which is different from Collet de Bois method. There are also other schools for this such as Wagner and Hauschka methods. I appreciate that you point this out as I tend to lean more representational.
Great tips, thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
