​Demonstration with Gwendoline Krumins 
In this video, Australian realist painter, Gwendoline Krumins demonstrates painting a portrait sketch directly from life. Each step of Gwen’s approach using the alla prima method of oil painting is explained comprehensively which covers toning the painting substrate in preparation for creating a wipe-out underpainting, using comparative measurement to establish the features of the face accurately and controlling a limited palette to create believable skin tones, as well as manipulating top layers and under layers of paint to achieve form.
