Any painters who used oil paint as ‘water color layers’’ on the canvas till it built up?

Hello guys , are there any oil painters who used very watered down oil paints (like watercoloring ) on their canvas and kept doing it to build up the layers of the painting?

Did this artist date his artwork post-mortem?

Hi all, I have a piece of original artwork dated by the well known English marine artist Thomas Bush Hardy as 1898. Problem is, he died mid December 1897. Is there a chance that he post-dated his artwork to bring in the new year, then died suddenly? It was suggested that the "8" may have actually been a "4" but the art also has a very clear and prominent 1897 watermark on it. I will link an Imgur folder to see if anyone may be able to unravel this mystery:

Thank you in advance.
