Buona sera,
You have to stand back until you can compare both the painting and the sitter in one glance. Doing so, you'll be able to evaluate the effectiveness of your design. Believe me, it works!
Ciao.

Hi Claudemir
Next time I'll do a portrait from life I'll try to follow your instructions!
Thanks

Thanks Geary
I take the opportunity to post some beautiful details from Sorolla,
that show the use of overlapping. Isn't this an abstract work?

Hi Claudemir
I liked very much your demo. It's a pity there isn't one about portraits.
Is the demo done "alla prima"? Because I saw a strange knife that should have been used with dry painting ...or not?
Thanks again
Adriano

You're right!
That tool is used when the painting is dry.
