Most of the time …
Most of the time its hog hair (brand elco) but for the line of shadow under the egg I used a softer brush. It was either a nr 4 ox hair (vincent) or a nr 2 langnickel 5590 (cant remember which one)

well, as far as i …
well, as far as i know, it is the same here in the netherlands. There is no academy of arts teaching in a traditioal way. Only a private ‘institute’ I think, but I don’t know if this is any good. I heard in Antwerp (belgium) they still have some traditional training, or maybe italy. I’m mostly self-taught too…..

Thank you, Im a …
Thank you, Im a painter from America who was forced to teach myself the old master techniques, what with America being so dominated by modernism. Nerdrum was a big influence on encouraging me to pursue the classical technique. ironically I am of Norwegian decent and I attended the oldest Norwegian founded college in America. Luckily I was able to instigate a little coup, assuring a instructor with a more classical background was hired the next year after I left.

ah yes, this is ze …
ah yes, this is ze secrete recipe of ze grande masterez. But if you don’t tell anyone else: a mix of equal parts stand oil and liquin (and maybe a bit of mineral spirits that is still on the brush, making it more fluid). Important is the panel: it is mdf board sealed with a coat of acrylic varnish. This results in a rather absorbing ground, giving a canvas-like feel when painting…
