A Paintings Last Finishing TouchesThe best Art Academies of the world agree that the hardest issue for all students is learning to paint values correctly because the moment we paint in colour we misread tonal values. The overall rule in painting remains that tonal value is more important than colour. To help you achieve the last tonal touches, it is a great idea to photograph your art with your iPhone or digital camera using the black and white setting, to reveal immediate problems. A trained eye will eventually see tonal values without this device, but for training purposes it is a legit help.

Revive Old BrushesOnce the hair of a brush is bend it is not easy to get it back into shape. But there are methods which I use for my expensive brushes, although I try my best to look after them in the first place, so that I don't need to. I wash the brush and dip it in linseed or walnut oil and to form it back into shape. Once done I use Elmers Glue and let it dry for couple of weeks. The glue is water-soluble, so all you need doing is washing the glue out and you have your favourite brush back.
