I used to paint all the time, but career and family put that on the back burner. Fast forward 25 years and you have me itching to try again! Thank you!
Fantastic, you present very clear, concise and concentrated information very clearly. I am looking forward to watching your channel grow with such high quality content as I have viewed so far. Thank you.
Hello! great video! This 4486 keyless chuck accessory works with 5mm eraser. and if it works, please let me know where can I buy it? I will be attentive and keep up the good work!
Rafa! Love your paintings my friend. It works best with smaller erasers (4mm or smaller). I bought it on amazon. I'm sure they are available on eBay too!
@@RafaFonsecaArt Thanks so much! This is the exact one I bought. It comes in a 2 pack. www.amazon.com/Change-Keyless-Universal-Replacement-Dremel/dp/B07CVDWTNV/ref=sr_1_25?keywords=Dremel+head&qid=1639415864&sr=8-25
@@theartworkshop Thank you I know this accessory, I asked for the erasers refills of 4mm or 3mm, I can’t find this erasers because I have erasers of 2,3 mm and 5mm, thanks for your help
Do you have a link for the sun dolphin sand eraser refills? Delivery for the UK hopefully? I have a derwent electric eraser but am struggling to find the sand eraser refills. Cheers!
I found them here on amazon uk- amzn.to/3rqUQk8 These seem way over priced though! I paid about $10 for a pack of them. Before you order any, see if your Derwent eraser can remove the paint with the white erasers. Usually works well for createx illustration colors.
Another great informative video, its funny how you seem to use all the same brands I use, but I always seem to learn new stuff! got to get a keyless chuck!!! now here's a problem i have... I paint on MDF (hardboard) sometimes ACM I buy from Homedepot that I gesso (4-6 layers) and sand to an ultra smooth finish then i paint with Createx wicked illustration Comart and Golden high flow white (which to me is the best white to flow out of an AB). I even use colored pencil and acrylic marker. so here's my issue... what would you varnish or top coat with? I'm gonna try an isolation coat of gel medium thinned then Liquitex gloss varnish. Do you have any suggestions on technics or timing? anything better? this is for client pieces. Thanks Raoul
I painted on MDF for so many years! It's great until you start larger paintings. It just gets too heavy, so I switched to canvas. You can get it just as smooth as MDF in 8-10 coats. Takes a while but is worth it.
I have a full video coming up in the next 2-3 weeks all on isolation coats and varnishing. To sum it up, I never use gel medium for this. Multiple coats of liquitex matte medium sprayed through an HVLP. You can thin with 10% water if needed. Spray at a low psi (20 or so), and spray the lightest dusting for the first coat to set the original painting in. Too much and you'll ruin it. Just go slow. Full video to come! Hope it helps you out.
Yes- Dibond is pretty good stuff, Cyril. It's a very solid surface to paint on for these techniques. Erasing works very well, but the feel is different from synthetic paper or gessoed canvas. See if you can buy a small panel to test out, maybe paint a study to get a feel for it. It's a very nice surface though!
Love all your videos but no matter what i tried the paint stick so well on the gessoed surface that i am not able to duplicate any of your “erasing” techniques. I am using the exact same paint and the gesso is applied using a drywall tape knife like how you showed in the other video.🥲

You should! Even a day or so a week in the beginning to get back into it.

I really appreciate that. Thank you so much!
Thanks for the information the video was really helpful on what erasers to use and the purposes of them
Good stuff. Thank you. Looking forward to experimenting with erasers.
Thanks!
Perfect keep going with tutorials 💪👍
Thank you!

I just ordered the keyless chicken as I wait with child like anticipation for that video🤣 I’ll get some matte medium ASAP
Do you know if erasing as you do is possible on Dibond panels.?
Yes- Dibond is pretty good stuff, Cyril. It's a very solid surface to paint on for these techniques. Erasing works very well, but the feel is different from synthetic paper or gessoed canvas. See if you can buy a small panel to test out, maybe paint a study to get a feel for it. It's a very nice surface though!
Buenas noches ,por favor me dice que papel es el que utliza para pintar que permita retirar la pintura o sobre que esta pintando
You can use aches hot pressed watercolor paper with some gesso. Hope this helps! Canvas with gesso works well too.
What’s the brands name of the clutch pencil?
this was a while ago but I believe it was the Koh-I-Noor universal lead holder
Thank you! I really appreciate it
Why use xacto blades instead of a regular scalpel blade?
xacto blades are easier to replace for me. Either will work just fine.
