Portrait of Max Mack - 30" x 40" oil on canvas

[Deladier Almeida]

Hi, Linda. For the skin I am using only Langnickels 5590 (these are flats). For the garments I am using hog bristles (flats and filberts). My medium is a 50% mix of linseed oil and turpenoid. I am liking the Langnickels because they are gentler on existing layers. When I use stiffer brushes I keep losing things I like and find myself having to redo things again and again.
