No, if the oil is cured it should be good, so long as you don't store it in a humid environment. The back of the linen wont get scratched, but I would place it in a tube for safe keeping so the canvas or art doesn't get marred.

Really helpful; esp ; finished texture of the paint: been making mine so stiff it takes forever….gonna try your consistency. & the paper towel tip; small things can be revelatory… why didn’t I think of that? Will have to down grade my IQ by 10 points. Q? What size shape muller also you prefer? My muller slab is about same size: Like the rubber feet too. I wanted to get a porphyry one and a stone muller ; that was a hopeless quest… ☹️ Thanks!
@flack_studio3 ай бұрын
Thanks for watching, my muller is 4 in. in diameter. If I am doing smaller batches I will use a 3 in muller. The larger the surface area the harder it is to mix the pigment but it takes less time. Happy paint making.

Thank you very much for the video. I have some doubts: You use some type of filler additive or stabilizer. When I made my paints I feel a separation of the oil and pigment. The paint behaves like honey when it comes out of the jar. Is there anything to be done to fix this? I am very grateful
@flack_studio4 ай бұрын
I do not use any additives, you need to use less oil if it is like honey. That is why I try to stay on the stiff side of paint instead of wet. Lead white will become more viscus if you have too much oil. I would try 1 part oil to 4 parts pigment and mill it in really good. Some people will mill the pigment with oil. Let the paint stand in open air for a week and then mill it again so it can be more stable. It takes time, keep trying.

Thank you so much for giving us the colors you used to blend in this painting. Question: when you used raw umber with white to make the more gray tones for the rock shadows, did you use titanium white or a transparent white (blending white)? I'm really struggling with how to get the colors I want for my own red rock paintings. I paint in acrylic paint. Also, you mentioned a couple of times a color . . . peraline red? Perimine red? Also, you mentioned `king' blue? Not familiar with either of those colors . . . could you clarify it for me? Thanks! When you made the value of the sky lighter as you went closer to the red rock, what color did you use to do that? Did you use the yellow and/or white? We've been to Fire Valley many times. It is an amazing place. We also love Sedona and St. George, Utah area. We used to live in Ivins, Utah which is very close to Snow Canyon NP. Check that out some time, you'll love it. We lived in a community by the name of Kayenta which is a huge art colony with an art village and art events. We love the scenery there and it is in my soul; I'm always trying to paint red rock scenes but have just struggled with the color blending (learning without lessons is not easy. lol) I so appreciate the free tutorial videos on KZbin, including yours. Many artists do not give the colors they are using. It also helps beginners to see the process of the blending on the palette. I am like you, too, in that I like to put my color right on the canvas and do the blending there, especially when I'm using a palette knife to paint. I love the textures I can get with the palette knife. Thanks again.
@flack_studio5 ай бұрын
No, I mostly use Lead white for my paintings, sometimes I will use Titanium white, but never transparent white, it has zinc in it and for oil paints zinc is no good. Yes Peraline Red is what I use and Kings Blue it is a mixture of various blues only a couple of manufactures make it, but it is a good light value. All I did is add white to the kings blue to get the lighter value in the sky, even thought their is a shift in hue, it is mostly a value shift. Yes, I have been to Snow Canyon, love it, I live in St. George I visit the places often. I agree with the textures, it is unbeatable with a palette knife..... keep painting!!
@reneekroyer51045 ай бұрын
@@flack_studio I wonder if the same applies to acrylic paint (for titanium white)? So cool that you live in St. George. We used to live in Ivins, in Kayenta. Loved the scenery there but HATED the summers there which last like 7 months. And winters were too cold and spring too windy. lol We love being outdoors but found that we could rarely enjoy being out in our yard with the weather there. I guess we were spoiled by living 30 years in northern California. We retired to San Diego -- can't beat the weather here. Thank you for your help. There are not many artists out there painting red rock, so I really enjoyed your video. It was very helpful to me.

does removing the painting off the stretcher make the paint crack or shrink? i am a poor artist so I have to reuse the same stretcher multiple times but im curious if the painting will be affected by "unstretching" it
@flack_studio6 ай бұрын
Yes, the longer it is not stretched the more it will crack, the more change you store your painting on canvas in humid or temp changing environments also makes it crack.

If it is oil based it will be slick, use softer brushes like a sable to get paint on there and to make it stay. Or, do your painting in multiple layers so the paint sticks better. Watch my scumbling and glazing video.
