Knife Painting

Knife Painting - Create Texture. Add Drama. Paint Boldly.

Knife Painting, also known as Palette Knife Painting, is a dramatic and expressive art technique where paints are applied to a canvas using a painting knife instead of a brush. This bold and textured method allows artists to layer thick strokes of color, creating artworks that practically leap off the canvas.

Made famous by legendary artists like Vincent van Gogh, the impasto technique behind knife painting involves applying thick daubs of paint to craft dynamic, swirling, and tactile masterpieces. The result? Paintings full of depth, motion, and raw energy.
