So appreciate your clarity and pace.

@corystreat8037 5 лет назад

I watched about 20 videos on how to make natural Tempera paint and yours was by far the best and informative! It's very interesting to me that every other video stress the importance of separating the egg yolk from the white and you didn't and that makes me happy. Thank you,Cory

the amount of boiled linseed oil reduces the tension that typically produces white egg !

@neilmckay4097 5 лет назад

I think artists tend to separate out the yolk in order to get very pure colours. But for use on woodwork or furniture I didn't find it necessary.

Thank you very much!

@drummerlovesbookworm9738 4 года назад

Wow. This is just what I needed. Thank you very much!

@amitabhakassap7339 5 лет назад

Great insight on the durability of the paint. Thank you. 👍

the music makes this so tense!

@florentinalily 3 года назад

just going to say that.. it grates..

@corystreat7605 4 года назад

Thank you so very much for sharing your expertise / techniques. I feel honored to be a new subscriber to your Channel. Why do most everyone separate the egg yolk? What is the difference? Thank you very much, Cory

The yolk is fatty the whites are protein

If i want to paint an orthodox icon can i use your method? How durable is in time? Do i need to varnish the icon if i apply this oil?

@jacobbuxton932 3 месяца назад

From what I understand orthodox icons only use egg tempera as the medium- just the inside of egg yolks mixed with white wine or vinegar depending on the region. This appears the be like a tempera grassa which was common in the early renaissance. Which essentially combines oil paint (linseed oil) with egg tempera

Background noise is horrible

- linseed oil - egg - water - pigments

@florentinalily 3 года назад

As a chemist I would say would be easier to stick the jar on the scales and weigh as you are going along instead of using egg shells as measuring implements. good demo though and would be excellent without that awful note grinding on in the background

@kitefan1 2 года назад

The shell gives volume, the scale gives mass

@TheMistAnchorite 10 месяцев назад

Where can i find the pigments in USA? Do you have sir a sait?

@plreeve 3 года назад

Hi there, I have a question please. Will this go over MDF that has a coat of PVA glue on it? Good instruction on making this paint, thanks for sharing.

@shedinagarage 7 лет назад

Sorry but background noise is really annoying.

@moosasanani 7 лет назад

Nice

@nidaljabarin4743 3 года назад

is it possible to make this recipe without linseed oil and damar varnish? I am waiting for answering. Thank you.

@manjichromagnon5480 2 года назад

Thanks. Plz don't use this music anymore though. It sounds like my tinnitus

@seaanimal9611 2 года назад

Hey guys, I’m curious if anybody knows how long this would take to dry before adding another layer

@seaanimal9611 2 года назад

Also, does using linseed oil typically dry fairly quickly or will it take some time

@peterangel6463 4 года назад

Neil, do you add one eggshell of water or two? In the video you poured water into the larger eggshell only.

@kathryncastanares525 4 года назад

He says he puts equal parts of everything, egg, oil, water, etc. He poured one eggshell full of everything else. So, he put one eggshell full of water as well.

@periodliving8748 4 года назад

Hi Peter, Neil added 1 FULL eggshell of water, and 1 FULL eggshell of Linseed Oil. Obviously, when the egg is cracked the shell is broken in two... so ensure you fill both bits of broken shell to get one complete eggshell measure. Good luck!

Does this dry gloss to flat?

@neilmckay4097 5 лет назад

It does. It gives a very 'flat' finish. In case anyone is unclear what I mean by this, I mean it's not glossy or shiny. Instead it has a subtle sheen. It also wears and ages more subtly than a commercial gloss paint would, as instead of peeling or flaking, it will gradually wear, giving a patina of age. You can refresh the paint by wiping the surface over occasionally with a soft rag with a little linseed oil. Where I used it externally I brushed on linseed oil once year before winter.

@stephenwhite5444 Год назад

@@neilmckay4097 great info? So you just run straight linseed oil over it annually and the brings the color back? How long does it last externally before the paint has to be reapplied? (I know it's situational but just generally speaking). I'm considering using it on a huge amount of cedar siding. I was going to buy linseed oil paint but it's around $175 a gallon so here I am researching making some myself lol.

@obliquecolumn834 2 года назад

Has anyone used this paint recipe And painted something that stays outside in a Canadian winter. I am not sure I can use egg with linseed oil for outside objects. I would love to paint the floor of my porch with a green linseed oil paint but there's been days of -25 C this winter.

@manjichromagnon5480 2 года назад

Apply linseed oil paint in the hot summer and you'll be reet. The oil polymerizes into a plastic type substance
