" I don't know if I would say one technique is easier than the other. Due to the use of scumbeling and glazing the whole process of artists like B. , takes longer than an "ala prima" technique. "
Hi Enzie
I agree with the sense of "vividness" a portrait should have ,and I think that painting "alla prima"wouldn't have the some transparency and depth as one made in differents times. By the way,impressionist works weren't done "alla prima".Sometimes they lasted ten poses.
