Golden Child

Deb Gillett

Golden Child

Although I’ve done portraits before, this is my very first painting in oils- I am so thrilled at how it glows. No mediums at all, just straight oil paint. Go to Deb’s website for more info on workshops, giclee prints, sculpture and news on this North Queensland Australian Artist.

    Beautiful! Love the eyes. Don’t paint in oils myself, think I’d end up wearing most of it.

    Fantastic portrait. Did you use oil out of the tube? You didn’t thin it at all?

  • Deb Gillett replied

    Just straight oil paint! Paint really thinly, then spray with retouch varnish to even out the gloss level, then paint it all over again wherever it needs attention.
