Techniques Used:
Wet on Wet:
The painting technique of applying wet paint on top of wet paint is called wet-on-wet, alla prima, direct painting, or au premier coup. The Italian phrase alla prima translates to "at first attempt".
In wet-on-wet painting, the artist applies new layers of paint without waiting for the previous layer to dry. This technique allows for soft edges and blending. It's often done in a single sitting
