Painting a cookie falling in some milk, a loose oil painting tutorial

In this video, I am taking you step-by-step through my process of creating a loose oil painting of a cookie falling in some milk. I hope this will inspire and help you, whether its the first time you pick up a brush or if you are a more seasoned artist.
The focus lies on not getting lost in details.

🖼️The surface I’m painting on is a small MDF panel by the brand “Muspaneel”. They are very smooth, so I always add a layer of gesso on it with. This creates some extra “tooth” and a lovely texture! After that, I put a thin layer/wash of burnt sienna acrylic paint, just to get the white off. (There is a video available on prepping panels: See it here • How to prepare the per... )
👨‍🎨The paint I use is a special oil paint (Cobra, from Royal Talens) which you can thin by using water instead of spirits. Other than that, it's the same as regular oil paint.
🖌️ For brushes I use the cobra brand brushes, and for smaller sizes I use Mus brushes.
🎨 On the palette for this painting:
- titanium white
- yellow ochre
- burnt umber
- king's blue
- ultramarine blue
- paynes grey
