Start Oil Painting the Right Way
The MazArt Method (Four Value System)
This foundation bundle is designed to give you a clear, manageable starting point in oil painting — without overwhelm, rushing, or guesswork.
Inside, I introduce the four-value system that underpins all of my teaching. By simplifying every subject into four clear tonal values, followed by four matching colour tones, painting becomes far easier to understand and control — and colour mixing becomes second nature.
You’ll learn how to set up your materials properly, understand value and form through simple underpainting studies, and complete three beautiful projects — from a simple still life to a realistic avocado and apple — all using the exact same method I use for every painting.
This is your introduction to the MazArt Academy way of painting.
Works with both traditional and water-mixable oils.
