Glad it was helpful!

Thanks but I am self-sufficient 👍🏼

Thanks for the visit

@JamesCrandallPainting I'll be back for your next one, as I need to learn to make videos like you 😁

Acrylic would be easier, since one can layer transparently using acrylic medium. Gouache can be thinned with water to a point, but it is essentially an opaque, flat medium and any underlying drawings tend to be lost early.

I don’t know for sure since I only have experience with my moto, but I would guess that the ABS unit in yours would be the same or similar

It's been a part of art history for centuries, so countless famous artists have used tracing techniques. Painting shouldn't just be about nice pictures and being good at line work, the main focus for a lot of artists has always been the ideas and meaning behind the composition and using tools to get that composition perfect saves so much time when you're only human and can't waste years on some desire to say you're as talented as someone else, just to find out they were using projecting and tracing techniques before you were ever born lol.

It’s nothing new really. Printing a photo in a darkroom with very high contrast accomplished the same thing, right? kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6qUhnZmlJp4gs0si=VYt-XNNLGUAiD7_-

I’m glad if it helped 🙂

@@JamesCrandallPainting yes, it helped 👏🙏

I guess it depends upon your artwork and to what extent you think “sticking out the back” is unacceptable. But yes, they often do a bit. This particular artwork was done on a heavy panel, linen mounted on 12mm Baltic birch ply, so it might have been flush in the back. But I’ve exhibited and sold many, many paintings where the stretchers were 1/2” thicker (possibly a bit more?) than the rabbet and happily secured with offset clips. With moulding this wide it’s virtually impossible for viewer to see the canvas edges when the painting is hanging on the wall. If you think about it, a traditional concave moulding profile have to be massively thick and heavy for a 1 1/2” stretcher to be flush at the back. If it really mattered, the moulding can be built up at the back with edge strips before finishing, but I’ve only bothered with that a couple of times. Of course, a thin-faced but deep floater frame is a good alternative when the style is more modern.

I’ve forgotten. See this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/e16Zq6ycaql3gNksi=KY98UEixoC1NlqLz

@@JamesCrandallPainting thanks I have already seen that one.

Thanks! I’m not an expert, but when the ABS fails on its own, the braking becomes VERY bad and the bike is not really rideable, so I would assume someone has done the work to bypass and/or remove the unit on your bike. I still have the tape, but I understand that it’s just a matter of getting into the dashboard and removing the bulb. I should do that.

Thank you! Here’s a link. www.jamescrandall.com/page/20763/art-supplies

@@JamesCrandallPainting Thankyou Sir.

Glad it was helpful!

You are very welcome

Glad you think so!

Thank you, glad to have helped! That painting was finished and sold. It’s actually kind of a long process of multiple glazes and picking out spots of light, so if I do it again I will consider making a video. I would recommend studying the trees in illustrations by Bernie Fuchs… easy to find examples online

@@JamesCrandallPainting Thank you for your comments and time!

Thats oil

@@JamesCrandallPainting lol, I meant the painting medium but after another look I saw that it's Gamblin Galkyd Medium. btw Thankyou so much for your videos. I love your art and how you paint. Remeber that trick in GIMP with the perspective tool, it makes it so much easier to line up your image, you just click and drag the corners of the image to fit the canvas.

@@shaun2647 Thanks for the tip. I guess there’s a similar feature, that’s what I normally use, but I do have GIMP on one of the machines. I often use Liquin Detail (thin) medium, seems similar, either seems to work fine

@@JamesCrandallPainting thanks James, I'll definitely order some online.

That’s pencil, probably sprayed with fixative before the first wash

@@JamesCrandallPainting Thanks Brother.

I’ll have to check that out.

Many thanks

Do as you like

You are very welcome. Thanks for watching

Great! That’s a perfect application for a posterized image

You are so welcome!

Thank you! Cheers!

Glad it helped!

Thanks so much! 😊

Thanks. The edges wouldn’t be visible after framing.

Glad if it helped, thanks for writing

Yes

My Japanese artist friend tells me that this word is never used in this context in Japan, and that it is misappropriation as used among arty English speakers. I went to Art college in the 1970-1980s (along with several Japanese students) and never heard this word until perhaps the 2000s. That’s why I suggest this usage is a modern invention.

I’m glad if that helped

I’ve been using this adhesive for many years and am very confident about it. My painted panels are in places all over the U.S. and Canada and I’ve never had any complaints about bubbles. If sufficient adhesive is applied to both surfaces there shouldn’t be a problem. In any case, this adhesive is archival and reversible…so any future problem that might arise can be addressed if care is taken.

Of course!

Because the next owner might want it, it’s not in the way of anything, the weight is irrelevant, and I didn’t want to fabricate a housing for the electronics. This was the SIMPLEST solution and completely reversible (I saved the ABS hard lines)

I know from doing restoration work that “tossing” old parts can only create problems for people down the road.

Thank you very much! The award was unexpected. It was “Member’s Choice” though, which is very nice
