    Oh yes, one more faux encaustic video would be so amazing, dear Jackie! And don't worry about technical problems. Those things happen, but they don't take anything away from your great artistic skills and instructions 🤩.
    Aloha from Berlin & a happy upcoming weekend to you ❤🧡💛💚💜

    This sketchbook page has developed into such a luscious, sumptuous background, Jackie! As always, thank you for your generosity in sharing all of your tips, tricks and techniques! I've never before heard the expression "And Bob's your Uncle" .......how FUNNY! Please explain the derivation of that phrase, I've gotta add it to my repertoire! Deanna xoxoxo

      Thank you, Deanna! "Bob's your uncle" is one of my favorite phrases. I just grabbed this from wiki, "Bob's your uncle" is a phrase commonly used in the United Kingdom and Commonwealth countries that means "and there it is", or "and there you have it", or "it's done". Typically, someone says it to conclude a set of simple instructions or when a result is reached. The meaning is similar to that of the French expression "et voilà!". 🥰

    Great video. Wondering if you have used cold wax for an encaustic look. Perhaps it’s not thick enough. I use it with oil paint and also occasionally to finish an acrylic painting instead of varnish. It gives a nice soft glow and buffs up easily.

    How cool! I've working with encaustic before and it is so very beautiful! But working with it DOES require adequate steps to protect your lungs. This is such a lovely result with the added benefit of not having to worry about compatibility with subsequent layers. And so simple too! I love that. Thanks for sharing and no worries about the technical difficulties. That you take the time to make these videos is such a gift to all of us. Thank you!

    You are being too hard on yourself about the video, Jackie. This was perfect. 😁 I am so excited about this method of using gel medium to achieve an encaustic effect. (I want at some point to use oils with cold wax to see if I can achieve an encaustic effect using that method. I, too, am very worried about inhaling the fumes from encaustic. Although I have always loved the depth of that technique since when as a child my Italian grandmother painter showed me encaustic paintings and explained it. I was mesmerized!) I wonder if you think you can layer using painted effects or collage separated to build layers with the gel medium - or if that might cause problems with preserving the work. Wonderful lesson! I'm excited to see the next step! I'm still pausing from multi-tasking using this time each week to enjoy your lesson, but also help me focus in other ways in my life. You are inspirational in many ways! 👏

    Will this make the pages stick? I have recently done some collage in my journal to cover a disaster 🤪 and the pages are sticking after using liquitex liquid matte medium. Is this normal?
    It’s lovely to hear you use the phrase ‘Bob’s your uncle’. A slight variation we also use here in the UK is, ‘Bob’s ya live-in lover’. Both are great little phrases 😊.
    Look forward to the next stage of your beautiful journal layout 🙏🏻😍🙏🏻😘

    I had great success with faux encaustic effect using transparent gesso, but my last attempt with matte gel medium was a bust 🙁 The gel stayed milky opaque even when it dried, and my background is barely visible. I was so disappointed because theres a few pieces of ephemera in the background that I don't have another copy of. I tried sanding it down, but it didn't bring it back.
    The opacity probably depends on the brand since you used about the same thick layer as I did. (We don't have Golden in my EU country.)

    • @PaintedPaperStudio
      @PaintedPaperStudio  23 дня назад +1

      Oh Nela, I am so sorry to hear that this happened with the medium you used. It's a good reminder for all of us to test products the way we intend to use them before we use them. I've have very similar things happen in the past and it is so disappointing. Having said that, THANK YOU for the clear gesso tip - I had never thought of using clear gesso this way! 🥰

    • @NelaDunato

    Love the finish. Thanks sooo much! I have a question. Do you have to put anything over this to make it archival? Also,I have finished a painting and varnished it but would prefer this encaustic look. Could I put the gel medium over the varnis or should I sand it down first? Thanks.

    • @PaintedPaperStudio
      @PaintedPaperStudio  Месяц назад

      Hi Susie, great questions. I will not be putting a top coat on this as it is just a study in my sketchbook. However, it is likely that I will do a final varnish coat on the "real" piece when it's finish. As for the varnish on your painting - if it was a water-based varnish your could lightly sand it down and then go over it with multiple thin layers of a matte varnish until you get the look you want. If it's a solvent-based varnish you might try the same thing, with a matte solvent varnish, but test it on something else first. I don't use solvent-based varnishes, so I can not speak from experience. Maybe someone else here can? 🥰

    • @susiegilmour3520

    Hey Jackie - question from a newbie...I am beginning to sell some gel plate monotypes. However some of my pieces are multi-layers of paint imagery on the paper and I'm wondering if that too is technically called a monotype. I appreciate your experience and so much knowledge!! Thank you so much.
