thabk you so much very helpful

Great video. I love my view finder...........but the hole in the middle is actually a color checker.* Line the hole up with a part of your subject that you want to match the color of.........mix your color and place some of the mix on the end of a palette knife.......line the hole back up on your subject and place the palette knife with you mix next to the hole and check your match. The plastic of the view finder is gray to make it easier to see the two colors side by side. *I had my view finder for years and never knew this. One day I was cleaning up my painting area and was about to finally throw away the box my view finder came in, and inside the box was piece of paper explaining the picture ratios and a arrow pointing to the hole in the middle.....which I had always thought was string a carrier through........and it explained that this was a color checker.

interesante

Good Morning, Elisabeth! Nice, thank you. 🖌️😊

Nice POV! Thanks!

Thanks for your interesting videos 😁💝

Thank you so much for explaining this tool 😁💝

Wow! Very interesting! I never considered using a view finder before your video...thank you! I put it in my amazon cart.. ❤

Hi! Can I ask if you used an oil or medium to mix with your oils?

Thank you so much for this demo. Just beautiful.

Love your way of describing the process and the subtlety of the colour mixes and approach. Will be getting back to the Foundational Art Course very soon, I promise!

I really like it, thank you very much.

I don’t understand the purpose of gluing the fabric to board..what are you going to do with it? I came here to see if I could use it with my painted , paint by numbers canvas THEN frame it behind a picture frame with glass

Brava!

Thank you for your amazing video, your skill, your enthusiasm and your love of painting which shines through in your explanation. Learnt a lot. 😊

You ate an excellent tutor. Thank you so much!

I never thought to use the knife that way! I will try it as I'm often adjusting my shapes. I especially appreciate your gloved hand. What's on us is also in us and the last thing we need is paint inside our bodies. Thank you for not only demonstrating a great technique but also safer way to enjoy painting. (Ventilate, ventilate, ventilate.)

Excellent demonstration! Thank you!

You will have to do a video on finger painting Elizabeth. Joke aside. Thank you, I often use a tiny touch of Aliz crimson, and will use a couple of blues depending on what I am observing, warm or cool and so on.

Very nice. Who would have thought those colors would be used to paint clouds?

Great, thank you ! 😍🌸

😮RESPECTED MADAM WHY THIS HAIR CUT ❓

So interesting!!! Thanks 🙏

If you are just getting started learning how to paint, do you have any recommendations to learn the basics ?

Your demonstration of these techniques is just what I have needed. This video opens doors for the use of palette knife that I had no idea existed. Kudos!

A lovely fresh outlook for the use of palette knives, thank you so much for your take on these fascinating art instruments.

Thank you for a great tutorial on the muti use of the palette knife. You are a accomplished artist for sure :)

Tgsnk you for this short darker yellows video. i would like to learn more about your color mixing class, but I don'see it below on my iphone. Any suggestion how to find it?

What type of canvas are you using? I mean, I just use canvases all the time that I already stretched, but I would like to do other options. Can you tell me please? Thank you.

Thank you🎉

Have you tried "Odorless" solvent for your brushes? I like your style of art and will be watching more of your videos... Thank you for sharing!

Hehe... yeah- let's talk about shellac first- It is a resin, a hard resin. It is wonderful on wood but is only used in conjunction with artwork on the BACK of panels. Why? Becuase it cracks, and yellows HORRIBLY, and must be refreshed over time. Shellac must be melted via alcohol, recombining the compounds to slick over the surface once again, and it is wise to remove whatever old shellac has flecked up before recoating. If you use this as a base for oils... it can degrade and destroy the art with no recourse for any conservator. How can you apply new under the artwork? How can you separate it from the paper? You can't. This is why the masters used gesso made from hide glue, plaster (gypsum) and chalk, the chalk and plaster sets up a hard non moving substrate for the painting that will not move or crack. You can use this on paper. You can also use hide glue to size the paper before adding hide glue gesso. It is water soluble, and all you need is hot water. An alternative is PVA glue, which is much easier to use.

I use Zinsser's amber shellac and really like the surface it creates. I use on both wood panels and paper. When I use it in my sketchbook, I take a section of a brown paper bag and put it behind the page I am shellacking, this protects the other pages in the sketchbook, and also lifts the page I have shellacked slightly, which seems to decrease the drying time. I have also used a fan on low to help with the drying time. Another thing to consider is putting a piece of wax paper between the unused, shellacked pages, to make sure they don't stick together.

This is beautiful sculpt action...

Very informative. Thank you very much!

Thank you for this it’s a big help 😊 could I ask if you would paint straight onto this surface once the shellac is dry and also is there any chance of you making a video showing us what it’s like to paint on. Thank you ☺️

Thank you, I have lots of watercolor paper to try this one. Can you still roll the paper up after painting is dry, or will it cause cracking?

Thank you fr the info.. luv India

Thank you for these cleaning tips. I also use Rosemary Brushes. They are great and even though they come from England (I am in Canada) they are competitive price wise.

Landscape artist here. I love my palette knives, but your skills are amazing. That was some phenomenal work. I would have loved to see the rest of your progress on that. Just outstanding. Thank you for sharing with us!

Hello and thank you from Australia.

wow a great way to use this tool. I always thought the palette knife was specific to adding paint. Your technique uses the knife as a kind of brush but with a hard edge and surface great video!

Hi from Brisbane Australia. My name is Stephen and I'm a fan. Thanks for this video in particular, as I've just started to work with a palette knife and found your use of them interesting. Cheers

I have to give you a full five stars, wow.

Im an artist when using pallete knife direct painting from start to finish not using brush

This is incredible. Thank you.

I'm preparing to get back into drawing and painting after a long break and your video was of great help. Thanks
