Yeah, 1/4" birch is more expensive... because of quality. Ten dollar gets you something that falls apart, and is never meant to be seen in any meaningful way- that includes construction uses... always needs primer always needs work. This is just a flake talking about art for ten minutes... give her about ten more years, see what she says then.

If you are using acrylic... then you might be able to get away with not priming... until the Lewan acidity ruins your work, that is. This is obviously not a woman concerned about collectors asking questions about buying her work. Lewan is no longer available in many places, it was a proprietary brand of the cheapest plywood known to man, and I'd no sooner touch for a construction project let alone use it for an art panel... and to not seal it? Moronic.

Ive never done canvas but I have a 5 dollar canvas from family dollar with 6 colors and 2 brushes.

I started on poster paper and went to thin ply then masonite but any ply from now on will not be using thin ply again and I like big panels

Cat: "OK enough about wood, I want to be the focus please!"

MDF is not archival for painting on. It can absorb a lot of moisure from the air and melts with any moisture. Its good for practice panels. Gesso both sides, and all the edges to help seal it. Wear a mask if you sand mdf, its awful stuff. Not really worth all the prep time for practice panels in my opinion. 1/8" ply is way better and you can get them to cut it to size for you at home depot. I layout all the panel sizes I want from a 4'x8' sheet and bring a diagram for the person on the saw to work with. I try to keep the cuts to a minimum because you have to pay for the cuts after a certain number... the saw person lets it slide sometimes... but if the saw person gets annoyed with you, you pay every time. 😆 Never heard of the wood you are working with here. I use clear gesso on raw wood to keep the grain.

Echo what another commenter said, if painting with oil the substrate must be sized and primed so the art will not break down over time.

If you’re cutting MDF board you must wear a 😷🇬🇧

Baby Doll!!

Your are is pretty darn cool. Have you painted on large hardboard? I wanted to do a large abstract and I am working on one that is 34x48. I know right? I just have to figure out how to frame it to hang. I don't stretch my own canvas and it's way too costly to buy larger ones. I get frustrated, because there should be a way to hang it, without a frame. If you have any ideas, I would love to know. So far, no one has tried hanging large one without a frame. Happy painting and warm greetings from Canada!!

Hello, thank you for the video. I am ordering a panel of MDF in order to paint with oil painting. Would you say that getting a moisture resitant panel is a bad idea? Would you also suggest using sand paper before applying the Gesso??

Lets see the backing you mentioned.it would be more helpful.lets see what you meant by backing

so she sits there and talks about painting! that's a great help!

Lots of good info. thanks.

gesso is for canvas. they make a 100% acrylic for exterior house paint witch was made to withstand the weather so its tuff. get a flat finish so you can draw on it .if your painting with acrylic when your done you can coat it with modpoge ,,more then one coat .at lowes they sell a very thin type of finish ply wood that's like veneer.to mount your finished painting use 8 -1 1/2 inch squares of velcro

Prepared canvas should be slightly sanded and then a thin diluted layer of acrylic gesso applied. Too much may warp the stretchers but this works just fine and should produce a surface with just enough bounce for the hog hair brushes that provide the classic oil painters experience, and purchasing multiple canvas packages a the art/craft store is a real bargain if they are treated a bit to bring them up to studio grade. Panels are nice but too expensive for beginners, and most people are frustrated @ as with cheap oil pigments are a problem too (stains really) that are simply overwhelming in permanence and discouraging for even an accomplished painter such as myself with over forty years of experience. One tiny drop will turn a canvas into a horrible green mess. Mineral spirits will dull your paint and ruin your brushes and is NOT "safer" than gum spirits mixed with one half stand oil which is a safe medium to use with consistent results which is the only way to paint and get better with each canvas or panel. Classic pigments are the right choice as are beautiful cadmiums which can be poisonous. Common sense rules the day just as most anything else you do. Ventilation is key, as is hand washing and keeping dangerous chemicals out of reach of small children and pets. Just create a nice space to work and be safe, and panels can be bought at your local Lowes or Home Depot. Untempered masonite works fine, and birch panels are even better. Most are already cut into 24x24 or 48x48. I cut mine into fours and then gesso with acrylic or rabbit skin glue and titanium. See? Everyones a star!

dang girl make more videos :)

Should i polish wood furnishing for shine after paint or before paint on wooden board?

Yeah wood is awesom iv tried both

May Jesus reveal Himself and His love to you.

Just an FYI. Any store that sells 4x8 plywood or hardboard will cut it into a 4x4 for free and into 2x4's for another buck or two. Usually all it takes is a smile, when you request it.

love the video! hail Satan! :) <3

Need put gesso for oil paint ,is is wood need paint for wood...this is what undertood...thank you..I don't paint in wood..thank you...I want to now is you been in the university they teach good materials...

FYI: You're comparing MDF (a COMPOSITE) to Luan/underlayment (a PLY)

I really wish you would have shown how to put the backing on this.

I'm sorry, did you say you don't have to gesso or prep wood for painting? IF you did, you do. If you like to see wood grain through your work, there are clear gesso options for that. Oil on bare wood will rot the wood over time just like it would rot canvas, which is why gesso is applied to them. As for acrylics, it's still important to seal and prep wooden surfaces because impurities from the wood can be drawn up through the moisture of what you are painting with and can discolor your paint. If I misunderstood you and you do seal your wood and prime it before using, sorry and please ignore me. :)

1st like amazing :)

i also love to paint on wooden surface because it have amazing tone of wood and its so suttle and plane

Will paint pouring with cells work on wood panels also?
