When painting do you go from light to dark?
Always Paint from Dark to Light This is because it’s usually a good idea to keep your darks thin, as it helps with the illusion of depth, and it’s not easy to put thin darks on top of thicker lights, hence why it’s best to get the darks down first. This is certainly a solid approach and one I follow regularly.
