Is it important to have the center line between the front two teeth to line up with the center of the upper lip?

John

It depends on the pose. Look in a mirror and move your upper lip side to side and you’ll see what I mean. Could line up in a smile but might not if you were painting someone shaving for example.

Hi Chris! I would really love a video about medium. I know everything is about fat over lean, but where do paint out of the tube is, compared to adding linseed oil to it?

genevieve prevost

thank you Chris. This is exactly what I was looking for! I used to paint with liquin, i'm switching to paint thinner and linseed oil and was a little confused (if paint from the tube was fatter than if i add linseed oil). Now its clear ;) i prefer thinking thick over thin, easier for my french mind :D
