I just saw the thumbnail for this video and want to give you a standing ovation. So many crafters demonstrate unhealthy techniques, exposing themselves to potential cancer. But not you! Love that you have the “use your finger DON’T” in that thumbnail!
Keren, this was SUCH a helpful video. Your tips about modeling paste are all things that are mistakes I have made so I really appreciate these! And I have also had issues with sprays, so I can't wait to watch that video too! New subscriber!
Another great vid Karen ! I've been having issues applying modeling pastes to my stencils, its been so frustrating. Guess I was using the wrong tools ☺ Again thank you !
Thank you for the tips! I do have questions: -how can we package them after the textured painting is done? -how can i varnish the finished piece? -can it get damaged after drying? -will it fall off a canvas?
texture paste will not fall off the canvas but if its really thick it could peel off but not all brands. I wouldn't put it too thick. you can package it like you would anything else. You can varnish with whatever you use for acrylic paints or water based products. Gloss/matte varnish or spray works
Hello mam, your tips on modelling paste is amazing, thanks a lot. I do have some questions though.... 1. Are modelling and texture paste same? 2. If I need to roll a canvas layered with textures, will it begin to crack. Would it be flexible enough like acrylic paint to allow rolling the canvas? Thanks in advance.
some people called modelling paste texture paste however when I think of texture paste I think of paste with gritty texture, like when it has sand or other texturising elements. I'm not sure about rolling as I've never done that so I can't be sure
it takes practice but you get the hang of it. Here is a tip: try to wipe off the excess to the point that the level of modeling paste is at the same height as the stencil. You can tell if you put too little as you will be able to see below, its more translucent. Using a silicone brush or catalyst blade helps so much
Great video, how do you keep your modeling paste or gesso from cracking? When I apply it and then it dries, it gives that crackle effect that I really don't want. Also wanted to know if plain heavy gesso acts like a modeling paste?
You can clean it with water and soap or a baby wipe. It’s easier to clean it while it’s still wet however, if it dried up, you can use a gentle scraping tool or soak it in soap and water for a few hours.

I think one of Tim Holtz’s modeling paste will absorb sprays.
Yes they do act differently and you will find those that you love best!
My worst problem with applying modeling paste through a stencil is either applying too much or too little paste.
it takes practice but you get the hang of it. Here is a tip: try to wipe off the excess to the point that the level of modeling paste is at the same height as the stencil. You can tell if you put too little as you will be able to see below, its more translucent.

I like your video.
How long does modeling paste take to dry?
It really depends on humidity which varies according to location. However, you can use a heat tool to make a dry faster.
Do you recommend a light modeling paste or flexible modeling paste?
I use both, it depends what you want to do. I would buy the regular one instead of the light as its stronger.
@@KerenTamir Thank you.
Great video, how do you keep your modeling paste or gesso from cracking? When I apply it and then it dries, it gives that crackle effect that I really don't want. Also wanted to know if plain heavy gesso acts like a modeling paste?
It could be that the layer is too thick and so it cracks. Or if it gets wet underneath it can crack
@@KerenTamir That’s probably it, thank you!
Good advise.
Is modeling paste used for texture painting like texture trees?
it can be!
How do you clean your stencil?
You can clean it with water and soap or a baby wipe. It’s easier to clean it while it’s still wet however, if it dried up, you can use a gentle scraping tool or soak it in soap and water for a few hours.
Merci beaucoup

How to avoid bleeding
can you be more specific? I'm not sure to which you're referring to as there are many products that create bleeding.
wow, so to the point =)
