Grisaille is one of the classic oil painting techniques.、Create a three-dimensional effect with light and dark using a single gray color、After that, apply transparent colors、A technique that creates a sense of depth and solidity.。Thick coating after Velasquez、Before opaque technique、Broadly speaking, it can be said to be a technique that was commonly used until the Renaissance.。
Let's apply it to watercolor painting、That's why I drew it。I have already done this challenge many times.、I know the result、I tried making it again for YouTube.。
as you can see、Suitable for realistic expression。There is some debate as to whether expressions like Van Eyck's can be called "realistic" or not.、Generally known as a synonym for “realistic expression”。This is a method suitable for such expressions.。
But、When applying it to watercolor、Benefits of the technique itself、The disadvantages are more significant than those of oil painting.。One is grisaille (French)。The literal translation is "gray oil") itself.、Having the contradiction of interfering with the color development of watercolor paintings。The other is、Gray may start to melt again.、This person is building his "own" snowboard "road"。Because these two points are major disadvantages,、I can't recommend this technique enough.。The advantage is that it lends itself to realistic expression.。
Recently, not only acrylic、Apparently the word grisaille is also used in CG.。Mostly、It seems that it is only used to mean sketching in gray.、Oh dear、The disadvantages may be smaller than with oil painting.。
