What are Water Soluble Oils? Are they real oils? Are they any good? Can you actually mix with water?
Water Soluble Oils also known as Water Mixable Oils or Water Miscible Oils are REAL oil paints that don't require turpentine/solvents or mineral spirits to clean up! That's right - you can clean up with just soap and water!
Can you mix water soluble oils with water for painting?
Are water mixable oils as good as oil paints?
What are water soluble oils like to paint with?
Do you need solvents?
Can you use oil painting mediums with water mixable oils?
Do you have to follow the fat over lean rule?
In this video I will cover all of these questions people have about water mixable oils.
Please note: Water mixable oils are NOT water based oils (there is no such thing as a water based oil) - they are still made with oil (i.e. they are oil based) but can be mixed with water.

    How do you seal the oil pastels?

    Oil stick When finished painting, leave it for 1-2 days. Will the paint dry like tube oil paint or not? Thank you.

    • @Articci
      @Articci 11 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Oil sticks will dry like a tube oil paint does. Depending on the thickness of the application it may take longer to be touch dry.

    Water mixable oils are not soluble in water, they form an emulsion when they’re mixed with water which is why there’s often a tonal shift.

    Can the oil pastels be put over oil paint that has dried

    • @AL_THOMAS_777

      Why not ? Only Acrylic will make trouble, so just give it a try !

  • @janetgoldstein7597
    @janetgoldstein7597 ปีที่แล้ว

    When framing these paintings, would you elevate the glass away from the surface so the glass is not in contact with the oil pastels, since they never dry completely

    • @SmillyDonut
      @SmillyDonut ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes. You would either want to put a matt or spacers to create space between the glass and painting

    I use oil pastels often and I've never had to use a fixative. I let my paintings sit/hang for a few months and they become dry. I don't like using fixative because of the added oil sheen.

    What I've experienced with oil pastels 7s that they will dry out and doing a painting with if you leave it for a day or so the painting will dry or cure, then you can put more layers over the previous. Thank you for your video, the colours you used were scrumptious! Cheers!

  • @juce5032
    @juce5032 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Sennelier oil pastels also come in 3 sizes, 5 ml (the small ones in the multi-packs), 38 ml and 96 ml. The large ones work out much cheaper per ml. 38 ml is still small enough to work with by hand. I don't use the 96 ml ones, but I'm guessing it's palette knife/stomp application only, or for large backgrounds.

    just discovering your channel; thank you so much! Your artwork is stunning and you're a great teacher. I used to go to school for art but was unable to finish. in life's hustle and bustle i stopped doing art and now very much want to learn again but can't afford to go back to the Art Institutes. I'm wondering if many teachers are doing private instruction over video/zoom since Covid came along and more things are done that way. How does one find a good art tutor/instructor if the university route is not a possibility? Thanks for your time.

    Maybe explain to people the difference in unsaturated (drying) plant oils, that are hardening through oxidization and polymerization (oil sticks) and oil pastels that are basically just various wax types (beeswax, plant-based waxes) softened with high molecular weight mineral oils (non-drying) - that will make the respective characteristics (and limitations) much clearer...

    The specialist set is really expensive - 185.00. I recommend anybody get the Mungyo 72 set in the wooden box. Their really great. I also use canson watercolor board or arches cold press paper 300 lbs paper (it has a lot of tooth so you have to spend time smoothing the pastel). For cost I also really enjoyed using it on canson heritage its a royal blue with yellow gold pad cover. The watercolor board is smoother with just minimal toothing. My experience with Sennelier, Mungyo, and Holbein. Sennelier is very soft almost to soft like painting with butter. I like using them for any top layer over the Mungyo (my work horse) which are a medium softness. Holbein are significantly harder. I would never use Holbein over the other 2 as they scratch away previous layers. Sennelier for the cost are almost problematic. I have them but for the cost they aren’t my main go to. I love to use those in landscapes over the Mungyo to really pop and gradient my colors.

  • @DahHar117

    I didn't think you could use oil over acrylic (water based) because it would eventually peel off. Is that not true?

    • @Articci
      @Articci 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Dahl, you can use oils over acrylics but not the other way around. Many artists do under paintings in acrylics and paint on top with oils. Never paint acrylics on top of oils as that would crack or peel off. I hope that helps!

      When I’ve used a fixative they still seems Mary over top of an acrylic painting. So then how would you varnish the whole piece you would use fixative? And then a spray varnish I’m not sure I have several large pieces that I need to figure that out about. Thanks for any help great video
