Landscape Oil Painting on Red Ground with Caroline Jasper. In Caroline Jasper’s “Landscape Oil Painting on Red Ground" Oil painting DVD, she answers the question, “Why paint on red?” in demonstrative fashion. Working from a photograph and value study, Jasper begins each landscape in an organized and systematic way. Jasper tells the viewer that she chooses red as a ground because of its “..emotional and visual impact.” With the canvas already colored, there is no need to cover every centimeter of it. Colors are less likely to become muddied by mixing as they touch. The color ground, allowed to consistently show through between painted brush marks, gives an overall sense of unity to the finished painting. 1 hr. 49 minutes art instruction video.
