I tried this Harding primer recently, was surprised by how much it actually IS absorbent and almost gritty. Usually I use Golden gesso, which is a lot less absorbent and easier on the brushes.

I love my MH paints and was keen to try Miracle mediums. The drying time however seems to be about a week! Is this right, or have I done something wrong? I’ll continue to use Miracle medium to clean my brushes but the MM1 seemed to take forever to dry. Help. Can I add something to speed up the drying time ? Thanks.

@ArtLifeWeekly Ай бұрын
Hi Liz, You won’t need much, as this medium is concentrated. A little goes a long way. perhaps this affected drying time? It is getting colder remember so drying time could increase. I would mix a small amount of MM1 Oil Paint Medium with your oil paint. Start with a 1:4 ratio (one part medium to four parts paint)

Thank you so much for this helpful video! Can you blend these different mediums? For example, the Miracle Medium and the Miracle Medium Dammar so you get a slightly increased drying time but less of a glazing effect?

Thanks for this video, it's great! I’ve been down a HUGE rabbit hole researching safe non-toxic oil painting solutions before I go out and buy my first set to experiment with. The only area that is still confusing to me is how you go about cleaning your brushes during a session (as you change colours on your brush), and finally how you clean your brushes at the end of a session. Perhaps you could do a video on these specific points including your post-painting clean-up process. I would love to learn more. I'm trying to establish a full painting process that is safe as my studio is tiny and has no air flow which is why I currently use acrylics only.

Thanks for your comment Susan good to know we will put it on the list of future videos - in short I tend to use one brush per colour tone if possible, then clean as much as I can with miracle medium and wipes or a rag, followed by Da Vinci Soap and water in the sink. Perfect for a small studio practise.

Hey, Just want to say I love your channel! I just had a question about the mediums....Im not too sure whats Im doing wrong. I have tried using Michael Harding Miracle Medium and it just seems to melt my painting and just makes everything sticky, have you had this problem?
@ArtLifeWeekly
@ArtLifeWeekly Ай бұрын
Melting your paintings? Are you using the MM0 instead of the MM1? Miracle Medium is the Turpentine Replacement and Miracle Medium Oil Paint Medium is the one for linseed oil replacement! Let me know if this is the answer, if not we will get to the bottom of what has gone wrong!

As a beginner for oil painting which hasn't done yet any shopping for mediums, I would like to see a demonstration in underpainting : a. What type of marker and what color you are using for sketching on canva? b. Is MIracle Medium oil paint ( as thinning the paint ) can be replaced with Gamblin Gamsol or LIQUITEX acrylic medium in wash-out ? please show the bottle with complete name . many thanks
@ArtLifeWeekly
@ArtLifeWeekly Ай бұрын
Thanks for your message! I have done a video called 'how i start a painting' with my underpainting techniques demonstrated as usually very fun and relaxed with raw umber marks or I use a ochre pencil for more detail. As I am an oil painter I have no experience with Gamsol or Liquitex acrylic medium. But for thin turps layers of oil paint at the beginning of a new canvas, Miracle Medium and oil should be a good beginning (then build up your layers with the MM1 oil medium as you would a linseed oil.) Hope this helps!
@freyabeya
@freyabeya Ай бұрын
thanks for this video, really helpful! I use linseed oil as my medium, and gamsol as my solvent, just slightly confused - can the miracle medium replace both? Looking at doing an order and wondering if I can just buy the miracle medium on its own without having to get linseed oil and gamsol. Thanks! :)
@ArtLifeWeekly
@ArtLifeWeekly Ай бұрын
Hi! So Miracle Medium MM0 is a turpentine/gamsol replacement and Miracle Medium Oil Medium MM1 is the linseed oil replacement. These will be the two products you need in your painting process!

Rejection is inevitable, but my (maybe counter-intuitive) advice that always seems to help is to look around and uplift others. When you offer assistance or help someone else out of any kind of jam or problem it transforms your attention and gets you focused on solutions and next steps from a place of generosity and strength. It's a powerful thing!

Hi! Miracle Medium is non flammable, non toxic, solvent free and vegan/plantbased- Gamsol is an odorless petroleum distillate which was also (although expensive) a much better choice over turpentine until now as it was not non-toxic but the least toxic product you could get on the market.Im now using MM instead as its a better product for my practise! Hope that's helpful!

I will be sure to invite previous buyers and local businesses. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
