RIVERBANK A small Landscape or Riverscape that I produced in a fairly sketchy manner. Oil studies were often used by the old masters to build inspiration for larger paintings of the same subject. In the case of Rubens, his oil sketches were often more beautiful than his highly finished pieces.
I have used an Oil Tempera medium for this sketch which is basically Egg Tempera with extra linseed oil emulsified into the yolk medium. Tempera grassa is another term used for the same medium (for detailed information you can run a web search for any of these terms)
