Description:
The paper I am stretching in this video is Stonehenge Oil Paper from Legion Paper. I use it mainly from my alla prima paintings and also for colored pencil drawing. This same process can be used for all sorts of paper- I personally use Stonehenge printmaking paper for my drawings- all stretched this way.
Coming soon to my Patreon page is a lesson on alla prima painting using this paper to paint on.
You can find links to all the materials I used in this video here:

Btw- this isn't any kind of paid product placement I just really like this stuff and the company as well. As far as I can see they really keep the end user (artists) in mind.

Great video master Bauman.

Glad you enjoyed it!

Very thoroughly explained, thank you

I bought some Stonehenge paper as a cheaper option to panels after getting frustrated with canvas paper. During the initial block in my brain kept saying “nope…this ain’t it” the whole time. This video has convinced me to try again.

Hello Stephen! I am an amateur, especially in oil. A lot of the critiques I've had is that I do get the form and the color close enough to get the liking of the photo/reference. However, my paintings don't look like it's done by a professional. I was wondering what makes a painting sort of fully-furnished in a way, specifically in portraits. Or for you, what makes up a "finished" painting? I found out about you through your videos in Proko, and clips in instagram. Your videos have been a lot of help in making oil painting easier to understand. Hope to see more in the future! Thanks!

@stephenbaumanartwork 2 года назад

Finished in this case usually refers to "confidently" painted in your style. Early on, with less experience, it is difficult to show this confidence. Comes with TONS of practice.

Fabulous painting and helpful tutorial. Do you seal the wooden panel with anything before you stretch paper over it? Thanks!

@stephenbaumanartwork 2 года назад

I dont always but its a good idea.

Do you know if it works with Acrylic papaer as well? I usually like to work Oils over an acrylic base.

@ninelikhachikian 2 года назад

Is it ok to remove the stretched painting from the panel in future?

@stephenbaumanartwork 2 года назад

Yep.

Hi! For practicing purposes, can I use any heavy weight paper with a coat of acrylic gesso on top of it? Or any other material with a coat of acrylic gesso? I'm looking for a inexpensive surface to train on a regular basis

@stephenbaumanartwork 2 года назад

Yes, absolutely

@Zimbertica 2 года назад

Yes! I found 300 weight watercolor pads work really well even without gesso.

@dystopiaproject Год назад

@@Zimbertica hi goshops, I want to try with heavy watercolour paper since I don't do watercolour anymore, but how does oil paint react without any gesso ? would you paint alla prima only or can also try indirect painting? Also, does the oil paint would be more fluid on the paper if I start with a wash or turpentine? sorry for all these questions, would love to hear your feedbacks. (I hate when the oil paint pigment is a bit "scratchy" on the canvas/surface, and I don't really like to add solvents that's why)

@Zimbertica Год назад

@@dystopiaproject I don't have any that are years old so I'm not sure how they stand the test of time. But I don't prime the paper with anything. I thin the paint to the consistency of milk with odor free thinner or linseed oil. I also add a little liquin original to help it dry a little faster. I've had no problems working in multiple thin layers that dry in between. I haven't had any issues with the paper curling or warping or otherwise falling apart. I haven't tried thick impasto but I'd imagine 300g weight paper would hold up.

@dystopiaproject Год назад

@@Zimbertica thank you for your answer, really much appreciated 🙏 I hate gesso so it’s seem very good to me. I’m gonna follow your process! Thank you for these feedbacks 😇

Depends.

Stonehenge oil.

@ShawnQuiQui57 10 месяцев назад

still dont believe it but man this would be cool if it worked

@owenstiles1287 7 месяцев назад

Why don’t you believe it? Just make sure you buy a quality oil paper like arches that resists oil and won’t age poorly.

@miguelangelo1912 2 года назад

I love that "A little bit tough to block in, but really easy to finish." So much truth in a single statement!

@stephenbaumanartwork 2 года назад

Surfaces matter- this is the only one I've found that does this.

@IsaacOtto 2 года назад

Will this work on any Stonehenge paper? I primarily work with graphite + charcoal and would love to try this with the standard cream Stonehenge (i.e. not oil) paper -- will this amount of water be harmful? Thank you!

@angeliqueroux3017 2 года назад

I’m hoping it will work with the pearl grey Stonehenge paper as well 🤔

@stephenbaumanartwork 2 года назад

Yes it will work. Just to be sure- if you want to paint on it you will have to use oil-paper. But for drawing, yes- you can stretch it this way. I do it all of the time.

@IsaacOtto 2 года назад

What about gessoing the surface... Is that necessary..?

@kirsten_walsh Год назад

Awsome demo thank you! Game changer would never have thought to go this. I work in graphite, charcoal and colour pencil. Definitely giving it a go 👍✍🏻

@michaeldenesyk3195 26 дней назад

I always look for your tips Stephen. I have a question, would any heavy paper work but with a gesso surface after stretching?

@stephenbaumanartwork 26 дней назад

Yep.

@Zimbertica 2 года назад

I found these small pads of watercolor paper, 300 weight, that I used for smaller oil paintings for practice and color studies, whatnot. It helped me get confidence to use more paint because of the absorbancy of the paper, mixing and matching colors because of needing to use more paint; as well as expressiveness in brush strokes. I had the confidence to experiment because they were small and cheap. I wasn't as invested as I would have been with canvas and feeling like I needed to paint a professional quality finished piece every time. Would highly recommend. I found a 3-pack of 6x9in 90 sheet pads that were less than $20.

amazing demo! thank you! ✨

@erinmeads1412 Год назад

Thank you for this video! Just wondering, if you keep the drawing stretched on the panel for framing, do you plan to have it under glass? If not how do you protect the drawing? Looking for a way to frame drawings without necessarily having to be behind glass. Thanks! 🙏

@stephenbaumanartwork Год назад

I have kept the paper on panel and had it framed behind glass as well. No solution I've seen yet to frame drawings without glass.
