That painting from 1912 is absolutely breathtakingly elegant. I'm so glad you showed it! :-)

Thank you so much for this video!!❤ I watched my mom paint with this type of powder pigment and glue but because I was so young I can’t remember how to do it. She has passed away and I want to use this way of mixing my paint like my mother. This video was greatly helpful and appreciated. 😊

Hi Kiyo, thank you so much for sharing all this, it is greatly helpful and inspiring. I'm just beginning to paint with mineral pigments and hide glue. I'm wondering: how do you clean the brushes so that they have a long life? :)

Yet another stupid question, but are some pigments at risk of changing color or deteriorating if exposed to heat even when it's on a painting? I suppose I am asking from a watercolor background where some pigments will change or fade even if exposed to a little sunlight (the lightfastness) and wonder if nihonga pigments have a similar risk with sun and/or heat. With that, I am curious if this means there is concern is a painting is exposed to a lot of heat for whatever reason like a very hot day/very hot room or something. And coming from a western perspective; it is often the responsibility of the artist to choose durable materials for the painting to last long in case the owner of the painting is careless. Eastern responsibility expectations seem to be opposite in which the owner of the painting is expected to care for the piece and therefore the artist can use as strong or delicate of materials as they like. I like what seem to be the eastern expectations approach more, but unfortunately western expectations are still more dominant where I live in what materials are made from and how they work and therefore wonder how durability works in a medium I am unfamiliar with.

Natural mineral pigments do not fade or change color by sunlight. Although shin-iwaenogu have a shorter history compared to natural mineral pigments, they are also said to be resistant to fading or sunlight. However, inexpensive synthetic pigments (which are colored calcite or quartz powder) and suihi pigments that use dyes may fade depending on environmental conditions.

hi miss Kiyo. Where did you buy your gunjo? What number particle size is it? The blue is spectacular! I have a few different gunjo, but none have that bright color.
@KIYOHASEGAWA2 жыл бұрын
Unfortunately I’m not sure where I got this gunjo. The size is number 10. The brightness of gunjo differs by its rank and where you buy it.

@@KIYOHASEGAWA Thank you. I made some gunjo in the past few days. After different phases of grinding, levigating, drying, and repeating the steps, I was able to isolate a fine particle of the electric blue. I like to make my own pigments, to understand the process. It's also nice to be able to buy one I like! My new favorite that I made are from petrified wood, and also rhodochrosite. Thank you for your kind instruction!
