Mosaic Techniques

The Impasto technique involves applying oil paint thickly, allowing the texture of the brushstrokes or palette knife marks to remain visible. This method creates a three-dimensional, sculptural effect on the canvas, adding depth and drama to the artwork.

• Application: Thick layers of oil paint using a brush or palette knife.
• Effect: Creates a three-dimensional, textured surface.
• Purpose: Emphasizes light and shadow or highlights specific areas of a painting.
