Thank you Elena.  Happy painting!

It differs from one painting to another. Sometimes this is just a therpentine, sometimes this is a mixer of therpentine with oil and lak. I usually do not follow it one to one. I like to use liquin, and it goes well with it too.

Hi Elena, thank you for the information.  I am so envy you can speak Russian and get the direct instruction from Mr. Igor Sakharov himself.  May I ask you a question?  What is the medium Igor used at the beginning of his painting to cover the canvas with?  Did he said it in his lecture?

Yes, Xiao, I am native Russian :). I can imagine how difficult can it be for non native Russian to understand Igor Sakharov's comments. His language is rather specific. He plays with words a lot, use  diminutive suffix when it usually not used this way, etc. However, this is not difficult to read at all. Each letter always means the same sound, if you know cyrilic alphabet, you can read, no additional rules required. Sucsess in your learning!

Hi Elena,  I see you have watched Igor Sakharov's videos of art lessons.  Do you speak Russian?  I love his paintings and very fascinated by his technique, but I couldn't understand Russian and I could not take the full advantage of his lessons.  I want to understand him so much, I start to learn Russian now.  It is such hard language. Very different from English.  In the matter of fact, some of the letters are pronounce completely different.  It is so confusing.
