Technique Spotlight: Impasto
Impasto is all about texture. This technique involves applying thick layers of paint to create a three-dimensional effect on the canvas. It’s bold, tactile, and perfect for adding drama to your work. Use a palette knife to sculpt the paint, creating peaks and swirls that catch the light.
Why try impasto? It adds depth that draws viewers in. Acrylics or oils work best, as they hold their shape. Start with small strokes to test the feel, then go wild with expressive layers. It’s a technique that invites you to break rules and embrace texture.
