I don't have formal lessons in using oil. I only paint what I presumed the more experienced portrait artist does in layering colors. But when I get lost, I go back to what I learned in illustration, dividing the planes and lay colors in blocks and try to make the values correct. That's the reason I always read about the Mattleson palette. The painting of the couple was done using the Mattleson palette but adding Cad light red in the string. I also like Wlliam Whitaker and Daniel Greene.
