How do you paint the Gnomes on the wood slices?
awesome!!!! learned allot
so cute so nice so informative thank you!
Both companies, and their respective products, are excellent! Top shelf! Golden's customer service far surpasses Liquitex from my experience...Liquitex didn't even come close....
Tracing over any kind of picture or even one's own drawing can help in improving drawing skills.
Hi Saena. Very fine video showdown. Thank you for sharing.👍
Excellent video. I tried Gamvar this morning, and it is so easy to use. I was surprised it takes so little varnish. I really like resin, but it is a lot of work! I have an older painting that needs freshening up. Do you think I could use Gamvar gloss over it if I cleaned toe canvas? Thanks!
My dumb brain had to watch this several time to understand because I kept getting distracted
Thank you very much
Very informative and full of ideas. I like it.
Can you transfer them by drawing over say like a printed sheet from a computer and retrace them onto a blank sheet?
That was pretty damn good, thanks
❤
thank you, finally I found what I was looking for. i use oil and acrylic mediums on the same canvas but didn’t know which product to use to seal it. as for ruining brushes with liquitex, that all Ive ever used and have just ruined 1 brush which was my fault for forgetting to wash it out. thanks again for the Gambling Gamvar tip. ordering that asap.
Thank you for the tips❤
Its easy to trace it straight from the laptop screen rather than drawing three times 😫
I wash brushes under warm water with Dawn soap... never had a brush ruined from Liquitex. You have to clean them as soon as you're done. 🤔
that's exactly the information I was looking for. Thank you!
Great ❤
Sis Tape name pls
I think I really love golden acrylics cause one of my favorite colors are cobalt blue hue, purple red and hansa yellow medium cause I actually love the blending on the colors 🤩
can we do with normal pencil?
This vid is very helpful now ik how to use tracing paper!
This video was very helpful. I think I’m going to try using golden
Amazing ❤😄
Hi Saena, I have tried all the methods before except for the last one, wet paper towels and wax paper. I used that one last week and was amazed how long and how well my paints stayed moist. Yes, i used a take out container with a lid to keep my paints moist overnight, even over 2 nights. Just ideal. The other methods didn't work as well for me. Thank you so much.
Fantastic ❤😵
You could try to use a silicone catalyst wedge to apply the liquitex gloss varnish bevause as the wedge is made of silicone the varnish SHOULD peel off the silicone once dry if there's any excess or you can wrap the brush up in cling film then store it in an air tight zip lick bag in between uses
Brushes need cleaned immediately after varnishing. If you have to varnish more than one painting use a fresh brush for each one.
I have a 30x40 inch oil painting I need to varnish. I'm considering Gamvar gloss and wanted to ask if a 16oz bottle will cover with one coat. My painting is on a gesso coated stretched canvas.
Why did you put that loud music in the background? So distracting.
I have a light panel by porta trace.is their any way of transferring an image useing canvas or canvas paper,it seems to only work with very thin paper,which of course you cannot paint on
Thanks for the tips😊

Wouldn't Golden Heavy Body do well with the palette knife?
The 1000th like, i feel special😅
How do you clean the GAC 100 after it has dried on your paintbrush 😮
I started out using Liquitex but was frustrated with color mixing. I switched to Golden heavy body acrylics due to the recommendation of a friend who is a professional artist and could not be happier. The small difference in price is not a benefit if you can't the results that you want from a particular product.
Adorable ideas thanks for the in formation great help❤
Heavier pigment load usually works better economically, despite higher price. I like a combination of painting methods, so tinting strength matters when thinning with a lot of water, or when adding texture / moulding/ impasto medium. I include glazing medium though, in very watery mixtures, because I read that the binding ability of the paint suffers with a lot of water
You have no idea how much this has helped me!! Thank you!!!
👏👏👏
How do you prevent panels from bending, after painting? Thanks.
Thank you
I never use a permanent varnish as my final varnish! I tend to go with a gloss/ high gloss UV spray varnish for the first couple coats as a permanent isolation coat , then I just do one coat of Gamvar as my final varnish. I avoid ruining brushes and I dont have to worry about brush strokes. I can also remove the Gamvar if necessary.
MOD podge
I just bought Yellows (Lemon or counterparts that are similarly opaque) from Mont Marte, Pebeo (Studio), Amsterdam (Standard), Liquitex (basics), and Golden (HB). When it comes to pigment load, price per mL, and body, Mont Marte's Dimension Acrylic > Lemon Yellow wins for me. It outperformed everything except for Golden heavy-bodied acrylics and Liquitex HB. Dimension acrylics from Mont Marte retains their shape and therefore, preserve your brush strokes. It is worth a try. The only downside is that it's too glossy.
I wonder if there is a way to combine acrylic paint with my oil pastel paintings ...off to michaels i guess 😂
Does the gamvar varnish need an isolation coat before applying?
No
Is this varnish self leveling?
After varnishing 8 paintings with Gamvar, ( acrylic and oil) all of them became uneven with dull and shiny patches. Had to remove the varnish with Gamsol spirit. Unfortunately, that changed some paintings. Varnished again. Same horrible result. So disappointed!
