Experiment with Chunky Strokes
Here's an experiment with unusually broad handling—big, chunky strokes in oil made with large brushes and lots of paint. I also pushed the shadow values, warm and cool colors, and rim lighting.
The technique draws attention to the play of shapes and colors, but the tradeoff is that we lose scale, atmosphere, and realism. Everything in painting is a tradeoff. You gain one thing and lose another. I enjoy exploring many different strategies of seeing and painting, so that I have a variety of approaches ready on my tool belt to meet a given challenge.
