You don't need me or anyone to laud your artistry - but, I will tell you what a joy it s for you to share elements of your creative DNA - I (and we) absolutely love to watch, learn, be inspired and encouraged - we encourage you to keep the cycle going! Thank you so much!
As someone else already commented -- this is a launch pad of infinite possibilities!! Utterly and completely amazing technique that is so very open-ended. Thank you so much for sharing this with the world.
Thanks so much for all your positive comments and feedback. I'm back on RUclips after a longer break than expected, I will look through all comments and try to respond. Just posted a brand new demo video, hope you get to see it.
Thanks for all the great comments about this demo, it's been shown to art classes and students, which is a huge compliment. I just wanted to inspire creativity in others so it seems like it worked.
John Martlew Thanks for the comment and feedback on this video, hope you get some good results if you give this a try. Thanks for watching, much appreciated.
I admire how resourcefully you manipulate the materials to achieve interesting effects and how the results reflect their inherent properties -along with your own strategies and mark making !! well done thanks for sharing.
Absolutely amazing. Just thinking about monoprinting...first video I watch is your's. Thank you so much, my imagination just flew up to the sky..Thank you so much for the great instruction and fantastic inspiration! k
@@DanTirels you have and in the process, I have inspired my daughter to continue with her photography. I did my second today. I love it. I keep finding pictures within pictures.
Thank you so much Dan Tirels for this amazing technique! Your monoprint is stunning and the technique opens to endless possibilities. I'm going to try this with leaves and petals, with my Chinese watercolors as ink!
Thanks for watching. This is a great technique to experiment with and it can get interesting results, I hope you enjoy the process and good luck with your work. Thanks for the positive comments.
Heidi Putschoegl Glad you found it of interest, hope you give it a try. I think it shows that it's not necessary to buy expensive equipment or materials.
Thanks again, Dan Tirels. Believe it or not I already tried it. I'm not yet overwhelmed by my result because my black isn't really black but I really like this technique .... I have to practice!
Gabrielle McSharry Thanks, this is a great technique to experiment with and works with different types of paint. I will try to work on an udated version of this demo soon.
Thank you so much for this video. I am trying collagraphs and not getting far. Tonight I grabbed some old paper and an old frame and had a go. Now I wish I had used better materials. I actually made something I like and it has given me scope to further experiment. What do you seal it with and which oil crayon is best as mine wasn’t very dark.
Well Dan, according to my comment (way below) I first saw this video a YEAR ago and it's taken me this long (kept forgetting!) to finally get to trying your method out = sort of! I used really cheap oil paints I've had lying around (had to bin the white because it never dried) but tracing paper instead of plastic (and not stuck down just placed gently each time and using different colours = 2 minimum) - I think tracing paper isn't as good in some ways because it's thicker so can't get fine lines. I did them in cut-out cereal pack card mask - but not a rectangle, don't know what the shape is called = a polygon (?) with 4 sides but not parallel. Anyway I want to thank you lots because I didn't stress about how it'd turn out so it was fun - plus the results are really nice (mostly) and I'd like to maybe do more but bigger. Thank you again!
Jenny Hughes Sounds like you have made good use of this demo. Always important to remember not to worry too much about the final outcome, it makes the process more enjoyable and you will always improve. Thanks for watching.
@@DanTirels thanks to you I had a really fun and productive day today, didn't worry about end result but saw what worked & what didn't (for me), worked until 6pm but didn't want to stop ('just one more...') but had to because was exhausted and hurting. I started with small ones (about A6 size) then finished two A3 and the 3rd A3 has black on and is ready for colours. I don't know how long these oil paints will take to dry on Bristol and Canson Imagine, have to wait and see. I so enjoyed doing them, have learned loads and it's all thanks to you for sharing what you do, inspiring me and giving me confidence to think 'yes, I could maybe do that', making these videos and putting them up here - for those of us who spend a lot of time at home this is wonderful (very good sides of internet) - huge enormous thanks. Got a mega mess to tidy tomorrow though! Been searching for your folding wreck, can't find it on youtube or your website: have you taken it down from everywhere?! I really want to see it again please.
I really enjoyed this. How did you fix it at the end. I was wondering if watercolours over it would work with this as a resist? Thanks for all you share!
Please some more tutoring on this subject pls... we just could not solve the ink problem nor the oil and would like to learn very much. Love from Turkey and thanks a lot for you for sharing such knowledge with us.🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️🌹
Inci Lakay Thanks very much for your kind comments and positive response to this demo. I hope you found it helpful. I will try to make an updated version of this as it is over a year since this was made. Try using ordinary oil paint if you can't get the oilbars.
WOW, you do SUCH great art! I just commented on your amazing folding wreck, had already watched this and so looked for more of your art = SO good. Thank you for putting these up. I like your sort of frame thingy here, so simple and so great and I've never seen nor used oil bar, it looks fun... You have great talent.
@@DanTirels Oh, I will retrieve some of them from the trash, got some more bags today to use, this clever technique is working out very well, thanks for the replay and for your vids!!
Louise Zanghellini It's a very simple technique and you can get some fantastic results, larger scale pieces work well and I hope you get some good results.
Hello Dann. Of course you use an acrylic varnish to protect your Acryl + Charcoal works? All framed and under glass for your exhibitions? I like your process, this mixture of painting and sculpture. Good continuation.
Dan. For a newbie like me this looks fantastic but I can't work out what that plastic type paper is that you are using? What is the black paint? I went to kindle to buy your book on monoprinting but it is not available. Please, caan you help me?
Holly Williams I've only just got into the habit of wearing latex gloves when making these prints, it does help. Glad you liked the demo, thanks for watching.
спасибо! очень интересно. более десяти раз просмотрела, но так и не поняла, откуда появилась белая ровная линия? она с края рисунка. проводим черные линии и вдруг появляется прямая белая????? она самая волшебная и проследить за ней мне не удалось.
Hi Dan, I´m Elisa from Chile. I think your videos are wonderful, they are inspiring! I teach at a Design School (University) but my students are all locked now, because of corona virus. They are first year students, so they do not have many materials at home, like different papers or colors. I was wondering if they could use other kind of pigments, like shoe polish or maybe something from the kitchen. Have you tried something like this? Thank you!
That's a great idea and one that I have been thinking about making a demo video about exploring the use of alternative matreials. I remember doing something similar when I was at art school, the challenge to create without paint or brushes. I remember using coffee, spices, sauces etc. Thanks for watching the videos I hope they help.
cloudhand0 I don't think it works with acrylics or other water based mediums unless you used a retarder to slow the drying process. Silkscreen mediums may work.
Okay, thanks for answering. Since I asked, I found out about Akua Intaglio water-based printing inks that apparently don't dry fast, so I might try them.
doveliz12 I think that would be a great idea, I suppose it would be messy but as long as you protected the finished work (cling film maybe) I can see this working, you could even incorporate elements from the landscape (leaves, grass etc) I will try and film a demo of this, Thanks for the idea.
@@DanTirels I can't wait to try this outside, thank you so much for your reply. I've been wanting to do this for ages. Looking forward to your demo. Love what you do.
@@DanTirels Oh, I am sorry, this is a misunderstanding. I forgot to mention which paper I mean. I mean the thin paper which you you use to print on the other paper.
Victoria-Menna Perez The oilbars can take a few days to completely dry but you could work over them. I've not done this but I've worked over acrylic paint and sometimes recycled old work by printing over.
@@DanTirels Thanks. Good idea to recycle. Try to keep the plastic down around here but I'm sure I'll find some. BTW I love your work and really appreciate your videos.
The oil bar used in this demo is made with wax and is quite different from the oil pastels which are quite greasy and do not dry completely, I haven't used pastels for this technique but you can work with ordinary oil paint. Thanks for watching.
Iago B Thanks for making me aware of this, It's something that I've only just discovered and can see how this video in particular has those qualities. I do prefer them without music or commentary and I've had comments about this before.
User123321 Most of the materials used are just recycled. The cardboard is just scrap and the transfer sheet is made from a plastic bag. The oilbar is a Windsor and Newton (Mars black) but you can use oil paint. The paper is smooth cartridge.
"The monoprint is a form of printmaking where the image can only be made once, unlike most printmaking which allows for multiple originals." [The Tate] It's nothing to do with single colour, or single pass. Each monoprint is as unique as an oil painting: no exact copies or editions possible.
Thank you Paul.but a single pass would be unique as it would be the sole or only one. Maybe single pass is not the right word to use. My monoprint was what I painted on a tile and took a print of it.
bullfrogthem These are Windsor and Newton oilbars. They are available in a range of colours. You can also use ordinary oil paint, just use a thin layer on the transfer sheet.
Fascinating technique and fantastic piece of artwork. I've never came across an "Oilbar" before. Is there an alternative to this apart from the oilbar or ink? Maybe acrylics? Please don't some more of these tutorials. Thanks so much.

Hi,can I use Oil Pastels Soft Paint Crayons Sticks ??
I don't think that would work correctly with this process, the oil bars are a mix of paint and wax and act a bit like fast drying oil paint.

hello dan, at the end how do you fix the color on the paper?
There is no need to fix this, just allow to dry.
Hey, this is a great technique! what is the paper you use, is it just a simple tracing paper?
No its plastic, try recycled bags or bin liners.
Hi Dan. Do you always varnish your acrylic monoprints?
It isn't really needed when working on paper but I would always apply a couple of coats of a matt varnish spray when I work on canvas.
Impressive!!!!
Great technique, I will surely try it! What kind of paper do you use? Can I purchase it in Germany?
Use a heavyweight paper (200gsm) cartridge paper is good or a smooth card.
@@DanTirels Oh, I am sorry, this is a misunderstanding. I forgot to mention which paper I mean. I mean the thin paper which you you use to print on the other paper.
Are you using wax paper?
No the pain transfer sheet is recycled plastic
I guess the oilbar material will dry? Have you ever gone back in and added other colors by brush, ect? Thanks.
Victoria-Menna Perez The oilbars can take a few days to completely dry but you could work over them. I've not done this but I've worked over acrylic paint and sometimes recycled old work by printing over.
What is the material that you add the oil stick to? I thought it might be deli paper but somewhere I noted you said it was 'plastic'
I use a lot of recycled plastic in my work, always good to make use of waste. Try carrier bags or bin liners.
@@DanTirels Thanks. Good idea to recycle. Try to keep the plastic down around here but I'm sure I'll find some. BTW I love your work and really appreciate your videos.
Hi Sir! I would like to ask on how I can store the painting properly. Do I need to put anything on it after I'm done? Thank you, Sir! I'm a fan!😊
Just allow to dry (takes about 2 days) store with tissue paper between each work. Doesn't need spraying or sealing.Thanks for watching.

Let's Make A Mess Today welke kleur voor gezicht verf.
What type of color is it? Oil pencils?
This is an oil bar not to be confused with oil pastels.
Your definition of mono-printing is slightly off, but otherwise your result with this smudge through art is very impressive and inspirational.
Brilliant thanks
What're the name of the materials?
Black oil bar, plastic bag, cartridge paper.
hello! after you’re done with the print do you coat it with anything or do you just use scans of the original? great video!!
There is no need to apply any varnish or spray with a fixative. The print will be dry in a few days.
Dan Tirels thank you for your response! thanks to you i’ll try monoprinting for the first time
Can any oil crayon work, or only that type?
Sam Easton I find that oil based pastels or even just thin layers of oil paint work best.
Where can you buy large oil bars I can only find the skinny ones
merrilees moran I get them on eBay these are Windsor and Newton (loads of colours)
Dan Tirels will oil pastels also work?
Do you have a list of the materials somewhere?
User123321 Most of the materials used are just recycled. The cardboard is just scrap and the transfer sheet is made from a plastic bag. The oilbar is a Windsor and Newton (Mars black) but you can use oil paint. The paper is smooth cartridge.
Not what I thought a monoprint was, but still awesome and cheap and easy.
Michael Crumpton , oh, it’s DEFINITELY a ‘mono’ print! Tee kewl!
Likewise Michael. Just a sngle pass on the print paper is how I was shown.
Kat McGee, please explain.
"The monoprint is a form of printmaking where the image can only be made once, unlike most printmaking which allows for multiple originals." [The Tate]
It's nothing to do with single colour, or single pass. Each monoprint is as unique as an oil painting: no exact copies or editions possible.

Hi! Great video! The paper that you put the marks on, was that a wax paper of some sort?

merrilees moran yes that works with 3 - 4 colours start with light colour leave black last
way cool

@@DanTirels do you think oils pastels would work - I mean, I ought to (will!) experiment myself, but typically strapped for time lesson planning!
