Love it! Humbly appreciative of you sharing your talent, skill and tips:) Question: How do you convince your clients that a painting on an MDF board is just as valuable as one on canvas? There seems to be come misconception than oil paintings on canvas are more valuable.

@PaintingSkies1 Год назад

Thank you! I honestly never had to convince my clients that a painting on MDF board is just as valuable as one on canvas. The tradition of painting on panel goes back centuries (to Jan van Eyck and his contemporaries) and maybe that's why in Europe it's not considered to be less valuable.

@PureAeternum 2 года назад

I seem to have a problem with the next day dry technique, mainly the smooth transitions of wet and dry paint, I've tried a thin coat of liquin prior to applying the next layer but the paint tends to form a bead at the edges when smoothing out. Putting the medium in the paint before starting and I lose the control of blending any new wet colors, not to mention losing the underpainting. I work on prepared, smooth panels, the next day layers are dry to the touch and I paint really thin. My guess is the sheen of the dry layers is what determines how the fresh new layers with disperse? the more matte the better? any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.

@PaintingSkies1 2 года назад

My guess (but it's really a guess) is that the priming of your panels is the problem. Do you prime them yourself, and if so, which primer do you use? I wrote a short article on my blog on the subject: paintingcloudskies.blogspot.com/2015/01/canvas-or-board.html. Hope this helps!

@PureAeternum 2 года назад

Thank you for the reply, I prep everything myself, pigmented gesso (2 layers, last layer sanded with 220 grit, not very smooth as my next layer will be a heavy liquin - oil paint mixture) I'll use this as the wet on wet start. Perhaps the problem is the next day surface is not entirely dry, although it seems like it because it's dry to the touch? I think what I am looking to achieve is called sfumato.

@PureAeternum 2 года назад

also, to better answer your question. I've been using liquitex - basic acrylic gesso (cheap stuff). Next time I'll try like you specify in your blog, Thanks.

@SuperOlds88 Год назад

I apologize for asking a question you have probably answered a 100 times but if you are painting on something like an MDF surface, what do you paint on the surface before you start the painting? I know you start with white sometimes or a dark but just wondering what goes directly on the MDF

@PaintingSkies1 Год назад

I work on 6mm MDF board. Idon't prime them myself anymore, I buy them at a small Dutch firm (www.panelsforartpainting.nl/en_GB/cart/) that makes really smooth panels. If you want to know my recipe from the time I still did it myself: paintingcloudskies.blogspot.com/2015/01/canvas-or-board.html.

Nog steeds intrigued bij jou schilderijen. En ook zelf druk aan het oefenen. Alleen... Ik schilder met acrylverf. Dat is toch wel anders en ik vraag mij af welke van deze vier methodes in deze video het handigst is voor werken met acryl? P.s. binnenkort wil ik een tripje naar de Wildevuur Galerie maken om jou schilderijen in het echt te zien. 't Is maar 1 uur en zo'n 30 minuten dus zeker de moeite waard!

@folkertvanwijk5168 11 месяцев назад

Oh ja mijn afgelopen vakantie was in Zeeland, driemaal raden waar ik de meeste foto's van heb gemaakt...

@PaintingSkies1 11 месяцев назад

Leuk dat je bij Wildevuur gaat kijken! De tentoonstelling loopt nog tot 24 september 2023. Omdat acryl een sneldrogende verf is denk ik niet dat de wegveegmethode erg geschikt is. Volgens mij kunnen de andere drie prima, zelfs de nat-in-nat methode, hoewel je dan wel snel moet werken. Succes!

How to make colors so creamy so that the paper doesn't tear away. My colors dry too quickly 😞

@PaintingSkies1 9 месяцев назад

Are you working with acrylics or oils?

@shrutiawasthi1955 9 месяцев назад

@@PaintingSkies1Oh my god.....I didn't expect such an early reply. Thank you so much. I am guilty of using poster colors. But I do have acrylics but right now I am trying to learn about the color wheel . And using expensive colors and paper is not in my budget. 😞

@PaintingSkies1 9 месяцев назад

Learning about the color wheel can well be done with poster colors. Making creamy colors on the other hand is a problem. Unfortunately I'm not very good at acrylics, so I'm afraid you'll have to look for advice on that elsewhere. In order to prevent your paper from tearing up you'll have to prime it first. I always use Gesso, but if that's outside your budget, you could use the acrylics you already have. All the best! @@shrutiawasthi1955
