Hi here,
traditionally when painting in layer, to adhere fat over lean rule, people usually mix oil and solvent in ratios from leaner to fatter to each layer.
i am thinking if possible we adhere to fat over lean but make it solvent free?
maybe start with a absorbent acrylic gesso ground, which is a thirsty starting layer that will draw oil from straight of tube first layer color, then in next 2nd layer, brush on a thin layer of linseed oil first then complete w/ color, repeat the process for subsequence layers, all brush on a oil layer then paint.
the only difference here beside traditional method is use oil only without solvent, and have the absorbent gesso layer to help creating fat over lean by drawing oils from layer to layer.
does anyone seeing any issues of this method? or if you have other ideas, plz share?
