What grit sandpaper is good for sanding some layers of multimedia on canvas with orbital sander? I’m thinking 120-300 grit? Thanks so much for your video.

Beautiful artworks!! I love your style and technique!

Thank you!!!

Thank you for sharing your studio and art and processes ❤ So very inspiring to me.

Hi Diane. Just want to say I really enjoy your videos and appreciate your clear explanations of things. I also love your paintings. Thanks for taking the time to make these videos.

Thank you again. You are just the one I needed at this point in my art. Thank you for demonstrating and explaining.

Thank you so much. I understand you. Im a year into trying abstract. I still dont totally get it all, but im at the point of learning depth, value, composition, and what have you. I have bought every tool imaginable, every color, but tend to go for the same colors and tools. I need to try different color combos and different marks from the tools. Thank you again.

Im glad i found you. You are a phenomenal artist.

Hope you’re in your boot and healing well! Be patient. ❤ Ice and elevation are key. My husband (64) had foot surgery and had the boot 7 weeks. Never had to do crutches. Yes he got sick of the boot, but stayed in it. 👍🏼 gradually dropped that after another 8-10 days. Now walking pretty well but has to watch how long he’s up and about and how far he walks. So just be patient with your ankle-think of how good it’s been to you all these years. 🥰 I like your videos and your style!

WHAT IS YOUR INSTAGRAM PAGE NAME? LOVE YOUR WORK! THANK YOU!

I have used Dorlands Wax medium on watercolors that are mounted to cradled panels. I really love the finish on those. I have been doing gel printing and I wonder if after I do a panel with collage if this wax would be a good technique. Do you think it is the same material?

Thoroughly enjoyed your video, your art is exciting & wonderful. Your style of instruction is easy to follow . Thank You

Diane, i am enjoying your videos. Thanks for sharing your tips. I like to use this underpainting method and paint my figures on with cold wax and oil paints. A bit challenging for figurative or landscape. But i like unclear soft edges for my expressive images. So, i keep trying and let it do its thing--just like you advice. ❤️

I LOVE that painting Diane. I am so glad you're getting back in your studio. Art is better than therapy. This is Kim KB!

What is UVLS stand for. Very interesting in starting cold wax over acrylic. Great informational video

I cannot begin to tell you how much I enjoyed this video, you have inspired me!

Can you crutch good?

I bet you are good on crutches.

hello! I had an image printed directly on. a wood panel and I want to finish with cold wax. Do I need to add a leveling step before the cold wax? And how long does it take to harden so it would be ready to pack up after you buff it the last time? Thank you ! love your website

Beautiful work!

please list your sander and your mask, thanks!

thank you for this beautiful video! i just wanted to ask you something for collages built up with "rice papers' and the isolation coat I apply before possibly waxing :-) I have the experience that any finishing/isolation coat I apply on rice papers soak in on some spots and on others not, which make it look like not everything is varnished, even if it is. Maybe you have some advice for a finishing coat on rice paper? so that i also can experiment with the cold wax medium. Thanks a lot in advance and sorry to disturb, Phil

Genus Loci is tbe latin words.

Is the wax on the rag flammable if left in studio??

I listened to your advise about primer from the hardware store vs. art store primer. Just bought a gallon of primer from Blick ❤

Where did you find that huge squeegee? Love it!

So sorry to hear about your broken bone, but it will heal and you’ve already figured out how to work with it so congratulations to you for that and a speedy recovery also. I do have a question for you. I’m considering purchasing a gallon of primer from Home Depot I just don’t think I need to spend big dollarson what they call the Art store primer I’d like your opinion

I like your process and your tutorial. Overall, a great video. You might try matching the music volume to speaking volume. I kept having to increase volume when you were speaking and decrease it when the music played. Thanks!

What a pain! Interesting the first four letters of paint is pain! Appreciate your goal of not letting it stop you. Great to see you in studio. Keep on keepin' on!

When I book my ankle I could not use the knee scooter due to the massive amount of NERVE pain associated with a broken ankle, (there are so many nerves, and such a small space and swelling is a dozie.) One thing I underestimated is how much this affected my same side hip, (from not using the ankle or doing leg movements it is still stiff years later and now I'm working on it.) Oh I am so sorry this happened to you. I also remember that it is such a slow, very slow healing. There is not "feeling better" in just a couple of weeks, it takes practically 12 full weeks to start to have that "feeling better" phase. I wish this phase to come to you quickly and for your swelling to be diminished. HUGS. Now I'm going to watch the rest of this video. YOU can get through this and I wonder what the result of this side track will blossom into!! I am edited: When someone saw me struggling to walk into a store, (definitely feeling the burden and questioning my own sense,) a lady said to me, "OH, I broke my ankle once too, I know, people do not understand what this does to you emotionally." It is SO very true, this particular break, affects our emotions. It looks so innocent, a foot in a cast BUT, the amount of pain and restriction in movement is so truly humbly and a bit emotionally crushing. You are not alone, many of us have hobbled in your casts also. It is hopefully a brief time yet, lean fully into the limited capacity, without guilt or shame... Maybe your spouse needed this opportunity to be the here. Remember also that regarding estrogen versus testosterone...Men will get exhausted from caregiving because it releases Oxytocin, (women love it, men feel like a Mack truck hit them.) I learned from the author of Men are from Mars, women from Venus, on his oxytocin studies... Men get rejuvenated feeling like the true hero they are. So, instead of saying thank you to him, try, "you are my hero!!" "I couldn't have done this without you!" "Thank you" "YOU ARE RIGHT!!! with any suggestion he says that you like!!" Trust this will help him rejuvenate and likely help you too, knowing that you are boosting him in a way that may not hav3 happened before. Typos left.

I definitely got excited with the pigments. I'm at 20 minutes in and was thinking about how we spread "diatematious earth" around the horse stalls, and if it would work here with a water misting first the canvas surface first, (we scoop the DE out of the bag with a kitchen serving utensils with holes in it and tap to sprinkle it down. OH gosh, now I want to try! Regarding your doggy loss, it is so difficult, I am sorry this happened.

Thanks Dianne for your inspiration. Loved this! Subscribed!❤

Thank you for this wonderful demonstration. I am now going to pick up my cold wax and oils!

Oh gosh, I am such a fan of you and grateful for your videos and advice. Thank you for sharing your teachings. Last summer I enjoy creating art for my wellness business and both parents supported and encouraged me. I ended up getting a sander, beeswax, (the beeswax video is how I found you,) and ended up also doing some decoupage work! Granted I am new but, that didn't stop me from putting it up in a local store. Now that I've lost both parents over the winter and am coming up for air, I have opened up my own yoga studio-wellness shop in the Phoenix AZ area and will continue with the art. The studio is in the Arts district and I am super glad about all of this. Both of my parents said in their last months that I needed to "get out there," and now some 7 and 4 months after their passing, I will sign the lease. :) Thank you so very much I AN I studio!! I look forward to creating more, hopefully soon.

I've been looking at this for ever - thanks...love the look of wax.

So my first thought in viewing your video is how the hell am I going to get to Santa Barbara/Mancos/et al. Yay Santino.

Wish I could be there!!

Can you also use gold wax together with acrylic?

WHERE ARE YOU - WE MISS YOU

I realize that this post is a year old but I just had to comment on the outstanding work you did during the Ireland workshop. The works on paper! I could not look at them enough.

Thanks so much. So interesting. BTW what is a gal kit?

New to your channel. Love your natural presentation and subtle advice. I can gardly wait to wax an acrylic painting demonstrated in the first video I came across. That plastic surface is not inviting, though aspects of using acrylics are more suitable to me now. Thanks

Are you using house paint?

Love your work❤. Where do you get your large stencils from?

I love your openness and thinking about how you communicate with your painting. Thank you

Where is the first video on cold wax?

Thanks for sharing!

Composition is reminiscent of a Chinese scroll painting of a lake shrouded in clouds… 🙏🏼😊

Nice to hear someone's thought process~
