Wow, I've been painting for 40 years and I'm telling you, I've never seen anyone try so hard and honestly to make their technique understood by amateurs and I'm telling you, everything you say is crystal clear to me, but it will take a long time for most. I love your work.

The importance of the choice of painting surface can't be overstated. This year I've oil primed ACM and wooden panels in bulk, leaving me with slick surfaces with nearly no texture. Painting on them was a nightmare. Terrible coverage, very hard to blend anything properly. After a few paintings, I tried staining the surface with a thicker stain to create some texture before starting the painting, but to no avail. If someone comes up to me and asks me about learning to paint, the first thing I would talk about is the painting surface. From here on out, I'm switching back to oil primed linen and even acrylic primed cotton for some paintings. Anyway, thank you very much for covering this in great detail and confirming my findings!

I did a painting on a wood panel that I covered with a layer of gesso first. I've only done 1 painting ever so I have nothing to compare it to. Do you think the gesso would have given you enough texture?
@AndyDePooter_Art14 күн бұрын
@@cd2028 Hm, yeah, I mean, you can basically sculpt your own texture with gesso. For example, if you apply a thin layer of gesso, with a broad bristle brush, in a horizontal direction, let it dry, and then apply another layer in a vertical direction, you can somewhat mimic a cotton surface texture (also sand it lightly with a 220 grit once it's dry). On the other hand, you can also apply layers with a taping knife, creating smoother than glass surfaces, sort of speak. In that case, the smoothness wasn't so much the issue, it was the absorbency of that particular gesso I used. It was very difficult to work it, at least, if you want to achieve a result like Scott has. So overall, no matter how you apply gesso, it will have more texture than an oil primer, but it will also suck the oil out of the paint faster, making the paint dry faster, thus making it harder to work and blend with. Note: This has just been my experience so far.

I bought an old glass computer table in a charity shop for £5.00. The top is the right height for me, the slidy shelf is where i keep my scraper, gloves and baby wipes for cleaning. The bottom shelf is useful for storing tubes in a badket. It even has wheels. Just brilliant. I painted the underside of the top with neutral gray. UK based.

Handy tip from Louis Velsaquez to stop absorbent surfaces ( if you want to) is to paint with SKIMMED milk..you can do this on an unprimed masonite or any surface that has already been coated with an acrylic gesso. This is basically a watery protein that will dry hard and is archival. I've tried it and it works. I've also found Rowney Artist (professional) oil the easiest to work with from the tube... I believe they add a little wax to their formula but I like them , very buttery.

Thank for this video!! I really enjoy your content!! Thanks for your time and effort!! A quick question about color choice. What is your take on using more toxic colors like the Cadmiums and lets say Cremnitz White. Why use them if there less toxic colors available of more or less equal quality? I would really like to hear what you have to say about that.
