Love the depth in this composition; and I'm thinking it's wax medium you're using.

[@zr_fine_art]

@@t-daze Thank you and yes you are right..:(

[@zr_fine_art]

:)

[@thedurochersofficial]

That was quick! What kind of wax? Never heard of wax as a paint medium. Nice painting and style.

[@zr_fine_art]

@thedurochersofficial Cold wax. It's a great medium to explore with. My next video will go into details and limitations. Great to connect

[@pjlewisful]

love it

[@zr_fine_art]

@@pjlewisful Thank you

😍👏👌So beautiful! How long did it need to dry with the cold wax medium? Would it be the same for oil based paint? Thanks💝

[@zr_fine_art]

Thank you very much. These are oil paints that are modified using cold wax. It allows over layering (depending on the desired effect) in as little as an hour. I'll due a more in depth demo in the next video explaining the medium. Cheers

@@zr_fine_artI’m looking forward to it 😁 Last year I made cold wax for oil and acrylic paint myself but so far only used it as an accent in a work and also only in acrylic paint. I recently bought a complete set of oil paint but have not used it yet. Soon I will be 😉

[@zr_fine_art]

Awesome. They're fun to work with and manipulate. Cheers

[@gary313]

Did you use a reference photo? Would >Ike to see how it’s different from photo please

[@zr_fine_art]

For this work it was mostly intuitive with an oldet sketch used for the composition. Hope that helps.

[@user-dn6nb5ku9b]

Can we use wax with acrylic?

[@zr_fine_art]

No this would not be recommended.

[@StuartMaynard-j1w]

Yes cold wax medium

[@zr_fine_art]

@@StuartMaynard-j1w awesome. Yes. It's quite versatile. Cheers

[@jainejackson3265]

I ask what your preferred oil colours are?

[@zr_fine_art]

I use all sorts of brands. Cobra' s and Gamblin is my preferred brand for now.. However do use aqua Duo and of course Winsor and Newton. Hope that helps. Cheers

[@bobgoodnoe4583]

Liquin?

[@zr_fine_art]

@@bobgoodnoe4583 cold wax, but close :)

[@nek114]

It’s pinen

[@codingchallenges]

I'm going to guess you just used Liquin Original as your medium :-) EDIT: never mind. I should read the comments first next time lol

[@zr_fine_art]

Haha. Good one

[@user-dn6nb5ku9b]

Amazing! I love your technique and will try to paint! Do you have Instagram and do you do life ?

[@zr_fine_art]

Thank you for the kind words. I have Instagram and it's in the description. I don't update it with my oil paintings that much. Great to connect
