Good info

Muito obrigado!

Thanks for this video. You've given me some ideas to work with. Already have the clove oil, and a Masterson Sta-Wet container but the lid is almost impossible to get off, so am looking for a good alternative. Still thinking it over.

why not just pour the oil into a cup, and pour it back into the bottle when you no longer need it

Thank you so much!

Does the essential oil kind work too?

Hi there abdulmuIz here...i have trouble finding pure clove oil...can I use any substitutes?

Great information. Thanks so much. I really like the frame idea

But realize that Clove Oil among other oils is toxic to cats.

You're funny. You should keep making videos. I've subscribed, so now you going to have to. lol.

Hello friends, do you like drawing, if yes, there are drawing videos on our channel for you, please go and look.❤️🙂

What is the clove oil for?

Can you put in the comments what color you used please. I love it

Though I would have chosen a lighter, mid-tone grey, I think grey is the best background colour for displaying art work at its best.

Great tips and thanks for sharing your experiences. Living so close to nature must give you great insights, I wonder if you paint plein-air...if so might you make a video about your setup for that?

This is a great tip. I've been using this method ever since I saw your other video. Also, I used a piece of tacky putty to stick the container to my palette which prevents it from sliding around into my paint. Since the tacky adhesive is reusable, it lifts right off while using my palette & re-sticks when I'm ready to put it away again. I've tried almost every method out there & even though some of them might form a little skin over the top, this is still the best way Ive found to keep my paints workable. Thanks for sharing this tip.😊

VERY helpful video! Thanks!

These are really great tips! Thank you :)

Very helpful. :) Thank you.

*hears US apache helicopter* 😂😂

Great video, short and informative.

very very helpful tip, greatly appreciated!

My gosh and amazing teacher and beautiful thank you for all your advice and tips

Great idea! Thank you!

THANK YOU that is great. I thought I was crazy for obsessing about how to prolong open time on expressed paint. Everyone seems so wanton about squeezing paint everywhere

Wonderful tips. I especially like the "easel for my easel idea". Thank you! And yes, please share your art adventures in the North. I'm guessing you're in a small town...if so, how do you deal with the isolation?

So you went with black for your walls?

Thank you for this. Great.

Great video thanks

Tube ringer double as a fish Skinner? looks awful familiar

Love the candle pitch lol

Great tip! I keep my palette in the freezer and that helps keep my paint workable for a few weeks but I have to wait for the paint to defrost before opening my container so water doesn't accumulate on my paints which can be a pain. I will be trying the clove oil trick.

Great tips! I have been trying to figure out how to make a cover, and the one you've made is perfect for my needs. The info on the paints is also very helpful. Thanks for making this video!

Thank you for sharing your experience of saving paint integrity with us. I found this you tube several hours ago, and already have my paints safe and sound under your sealed glass frame setup. Thanks much.

Very helpful! Thank you. It's frustrating when I spend two or three hours mixing colors for a painting only to have them dry out in a couple days. Even more frustrating when using expensive top shelf oil paints. I've tried other methods without any luck getting them to work for more than 24-36 hours. I've often wondered if it's a proponent of my studio. I have a large air purifier which keeps the air circulating 24 hours per day. I also keep the temperature of around 73°. Thank you for the in depth information on the drying characteristics of different colors.

I built my framed glass cover based on this video. It actually looks just like the one you have, Rae. It doesn't work too bad. It keeps paint mixtures good for several days. Some of my paints will stay fresh for a week or 10 days. However, some times they start taking on a tacky quality after the 10 days is up. They get a skin of sorts on some of the paint...and others get sort of a tacky, shiny-oily quality about them that I don't like. I'm not sure what causes this shiny-oily quality. I'm guessing that is part of the drying process...or maybe it's related to the clove oil. Most of my paints do well if I can scoop them up and put them in the fridge on a piece of glass over night.. I'm testing my Ivory Black and Prussian Blue to see how well they do in the fridge for several days. Rae, my question is: Do you know what causes this shiny-oily and somewhat tacky quality in the paint left under the air tight glass for extended periods of time? Is it the drying process...or is it the exposure to the clove oil? I'm glad I made the air tight glass container...but I'm just trying to understand fully was it can....and cannot do. Thanks Rae...

Recently I finished outline sketch of Barcelona football club And which type of color you prefer

Best video, ideas, and information I've ever seen on this subject. Thank you...

I also always throw candles

have you tried storing the paint underwater?

so you soak a cotton ball with oil and leave it inside your palette?

Your paintings are great, and this is an interesting subject. But I'm thinking of just painting sketches, composition ideas, practice pieces, self affirmations, quotes, etc. etc right onto my art studio walls. And just keep painting over it with new ideas, sketches, etc. Like turning my walls into a giant paint sketchbook to work out ideas. Might end up looking like a mad house though, haha.

Interesting idea, approximately how many drops Rae?

That was very helpful, thank you!
