Leonardo da Vinci did not primarily use the palette knife technique in his painting. Instead, he is known for his mastery of traditional brush techniques, particularly sfumato, which involves the subtle blending of colors and tones. While palette knives are more commonly associated with modern and impressionist painters, da Vinci's focus was on achieving realism and depth through careful brushwork.
Its main function is to blend colors. Many painters use a 'pallete' (a flat board that can be hand held) to hold paint to be applied to the substrate (usually a canvas). A pallete knife is used to combine two or more colors on the board to make a new or intermediate color. Also, some painters use these knives to apply paint to the work. at these times the knife functions more like a brush. See related link. You can see the artist has blended colors on the pallete.
