A grisaille provides solid modelling of the 3 dimensional forms in opaque paint. This is important because many beautiful colours are transparent to some degree.

Grisaille can be a great way to create depth and volume in your paintings.

Grisaille techniques can be used to create a range of different effects, from subtle to dramatic. With a little experimentation, you can find the right approach for your artwork.

It makes you focus on the subject matter, composition, line and other elements of art while not being distracted by colour.

Grisaille has been used by artists for centuries, and there are now many different books that can teach you how to use this style. Some of the most famous artists who have used grisaille include Rembrandt, Michelangelo, and Leonardo da Vinci through to Rene Magritte and Picasso.

This course teaches from starting the drawing stage to finish Grisaille Painting.

It can also be used to create a sense of depth or atmosphere in a painting.

If you want to create a painting with a light and airy feel, you could use grisaille to paint bright highlights in the foreground.
