Oil Painting Products - LINSEED STANDOIL

[@swiftyjoe]

these videos actually help me improve my art

[@prolificF8]

You videos are so clearly and simply explained. I’m really impressed. Thank you so much.

[@1977ajax]

Just to clarify what may be a language problem; stand oil is not a 'vehicle', but a 'medium'. The medium is the substance in which the pigment is ground to make the paint. The 'vehicle' is what you would use to dilute the medium or make it flow more easily - e.g. turpentine. In the same way that water is the 'vehicle' for acrylic paint.

Your videos are wonderful Florent. You're my favorite artist on youtube and I watch several of your videos every week to learn new techniques and motivate me before my own oil painting sessions. You're very informative and a great teacher. Keep up the amazing work :)

Thank you! I was having a hard time to hear as thorough of a breakdown as you have explained here. I’m currently using a 1/3 to 2/3 mix to wipe down and prep my working surface. Not only do i find that the paint brushes on smoother; there seems to me more build up of transparent layering in between each session, that for me, highlights the layering effects and body of the result im hoping to achieve. This is still a new technique to me, but so far i enjoy the look, though it takes a little longer to dry fully.

Just a few comments... Stand oil can be used directly but due to its viscosity you will want to thin it a bit with a solvent or other medium. It will dry very glossy, tends to level, leaving no brushstrokes, and takes several days to dry, much longer than, say, refined linseed oil. The dry surface appears glassy, very smooth, in fact you might need to use retouch varnish to get more grip on successive paint layers. (I don't like using retouch varnish as I think it will lead to eventual cracking, but in this case, a little over the slick surface may be necessary.) A solution to the long drying and slick surface that works for me is 1/3 stand oil with traditional Liquin (an alkyd based medium) and a bit of MS. The slightly tacky quality allows you to drop clean strokes into the surface, which makes it much easier to move the paint around, rather than fight a surface that is too wet, or slick. It works well for some of my portraits.

That's amazing product its more pliable than those mixed with flax that it's quite wet effect many thanks for sharing

[@robertdrake5100]

Thank you for explaining Standoil. I did not know much about it but have wondered.

[@TheRozzyRozz]

Perfect explanation...thank you!

[@rebeccasrambles]

Jos Van Riswick uses stand oil mixed with alkyd resin as an undercoat for his paintings. To keep parts of the painting from drying out at different rates while he paints "into the soup" as he calls it.

Thank you for posting . Great video , it shaws the basics of oil painting which I 'm need realy ,help me in painting , v essential to me . Many thanks , you are great proffesor .

[@fredericrommelaere2396]

Bonjour Florent, si j ai bien compris tu utilises la standolie dilué comme medium pour tes premières couches. Je pense que tu es plus un adepte de la technique alla prima ?! D où ma question que penses du du conseil d utiliser cette huile qu'en dernière couche soit plutôt pour des glacis ? Quelles mesures de sécurité utilises tu pour ta sécurité car à priori c'est très emflamable ?! Merci pour ton retour

[@z1522]

Instead of talking at the viewer, it might be far more useful to show the oil being mixed with solvent, some paint, and how that looks during application, when more painting occurs the next day or later, how layers blend or stay distinct, how long it is workable, how long it takes to begin and finish curing. Of course, adding why the same appearance can just be achieved using various Liquins in a fraction of the time with less complications would be helpful as well.

[@trojanette8345]

Brand new to your channel. Still a little confused about one thing. I don't understand the connection in terms of usage between using standoil and what to do with it when you paint. Can you explain a little bit better. Thank you.

[@saltlifegull4091]

Wow, outstanding. Is that you painting that portrait? My jaw dropped! I'm hooked:)

[@andri0mar]

I've heard other people say that you can use linseed stand oil without any solvent. But only when you are trying to get the mattest part of your painting (which has dried) to get some of the gloss back. The people who said that was in a conversation about varnishing the paintings, so they're meaning was: if your finished, dried painting has a big difference in gloss, you can brush dry linseed stand oil over the painting, let that dry and then varnish it. what's your opinion about that? And I care about your opinion. Thanks in advance :)

[@ComradeMorlac]

Just did this and its fantastic

[@parissaintgermain402]

Wow super vidéo m'aime si je comprend pas langlais vous avez un magnifique talent (John )

[@bjosephine4308]

I use Stand oil without mixing with other mediums. How? I use soft pastels technique using stand oil. I put very little stand oil and then use finger to spread colors very lightly and gently. And when it dries up then use regular brushes for detail work.

[@robbiej2070]

Thanks great explanation - cheers

[@inessagarder4452]

Florent, what if I’ve made a layer on my painting...using JUST Williamsburg stand oil ?! No mineral spirit mixed in. How can I go on the next layers? Can I just keep using JUST linseed stand oil for this painting? You are right it was not quite comfortable but I like the result.

[@maudale]

interesting, I initially heard the opposite, that stand oil would yellow more than linseed

[@daphnemarais1540]

Thanks, valuable info! I'm sure I hear Augustine crying in the background! How is he doing?

[@FlorentFargesarts]

Haha ! Yeah, that's right, he's doing really well ! He's growing so fast it's crazy.

[@ShirleiBarnes]

Thanks

Hi, can you mix leendsid oil with acrylic paint to make the acrylic dry slower?

[@sionedsart337]

'the heat of the sun' me who lives in England : sun has heat ?

[@d_dog9939]

stand oil has high viscosity but also good leveling

[@tutu9058]

Is it good to mix linseed and stand oil together?

[@jamiegossett]

What about cobalt drier.?

[@arazharoutun1904]

Thanks for this video, can I use boiled linseed oil as a medium

[@teresagrigsby-rose8761]

That is stand oil

Arazhar....are you for real.......????🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤯

[@chrisgriffith1573]

Would you not use this as a second layer of painting... as a "fat" layer?

[@timothy790110]

So first you say dont use more than 50% solvent and then you say a great recipie is 2/3 solvent?

[@teresagrigsby-rose8761]

I thought that too. But I think maybe he meant don't use over 50% mixed with paint??? Lol. Not sure 🤔

[@egillamuu3838]

j'aurai aimé voir cette vidéo en français. Les anglais ont suffisamment de contenu de qualité, en france les pages youtube traitant de peinture sont beaucoup plus rare c'est dommage.
