Gesso! I need to invest in it……
thats it is not canvas . it is a made one from a shop.and applye a factory gesso it as nothing to do with 17 century tecnics
i looked at your stuff,…not really that original, just looks like you watched a few bob ross videos
This is great for people I think, but in heavy oil painting makes little difference, ..
Ah don't mind me I'm full of crap…
I use liquid white
wow…and i thought you could just paint on the dang thing
@sub45qe It's canvas stretched on a wood frame, essentially it is the same. Some come pre-gesso'd, others don't. Regardless he's still teaching very useful techniques.
anyonw know what was he using is that a glue or paint????????????????
Masonite board is a niice painting surface, y'know that stuff clipboards are made of.
1:14 Dj Rembrandt!
The video was very helpful!
the canvas idea aint that important
I could never go through all of that . by the time I'm done with all that prep I would be out of vision and passion for the idea I have . most of my canvasses aren't even square and I use paint right out of the tube
could be good
but if you a strong text on the canvas the ist's very ronge
And by the time the gesso weth out glue code by very bad to the master piece
Go to an arts and crafts store and buy a gallery wrapped, back stapled canvas. It looks good, and there's no prep work cause it's usually already triple primed. This is so over the top. If you want a smooth surface, by all means, apply the gesso and sand it, but I don't understand the point of all this. Classic painting preparations don't equal classic paintings.
where do you get your canvas?
Rembrandt, Vermeer, Hals did this? Give this guy a Dutch Masters cigar.
He needed a really smooth surface to do the Dutch technique, and his factory primed (and glued) canvas, even high quality linen, just isn't sufficiently smooth, i.e. there is a slight grain still present that will adversely affect the quality of his brushstrokes, that's why he applies further coats of primer and sands between and afterward, producing a perfect, eggshell finish.
is there an echo in here?
great video – thank you!
vive la france
@carkiss100 I think someone's translating in French
i was wondering what those pieces of wood were?
they are always delivered by the canvas.
