Discover how I’m recreating Delacroix’s Liberty Leading the People using classical oil painting techniques, from raw umber underpainting to layered glazing. In this behind-the-scenes master copy session, I break down my palette, process, and colour decisions and share how you can learn these traditional methods in your own work.

Learn how to oil paint using the classical glazing technique, starting from a bistre underpainting and building luminous colour through transparent layers. This step-by-step guide breaks down the entire process and explains why glazing creates depth and glow that alla prima painting can’t match.
