I just discovered your channel yesterday, and am VERY interested in trying cold wax in addition to my oil painting practice. Your videos have been super helpful. This one is gorgeous, as usual!
I enjoy watching all your videos and I want to thank you for generously sharing so many techniques. It is always a pleasure when you post a video. Happy holidays to you.i
I’m new to oil and cold wax and your videos are so helpful! I really love this technique of adding powdered pigment for some extra dazzle! Thanks for all the inspiration!
This is wonderful Lisa ❤Thankyou so much for sharing. Do you use the powdered pigment layers in final stages or do you continue to work over them? Can you? And if you continue to work over them, do you fix them first with the fixative? And does this fixative work to fix/seal the whole painting? Sorry for all the questions - just want to be sure of what I’m doing 🙄
Tricia, thanks for watching my TH-cam channel! I do use the powdered pigment all through the painting process, however if you work over it it will blend into the paint and you usually have to reapply. You can fix them if you want to retain an area. I block out the area with the powdered pigment so as to not seal the entire painting if I am still continuing to add layers. Such a fun medium!

Thank you for this....I have been using cold wax for a while now and I have been wondering if dry pigments would mix with it. Can't wait to give it a go🎨
Thanks for your videos. I have a question. You may have said this early in the video but I turned the volume down because the music was distracting. Everything I’ve read has said that powdered pigments are dangerous to inhale. Do you wear a respirator or N95 mask while working with them? Thanks
Susan, thanks for watching my TH-cam channel! Powdered pigments. Or any dust type of product can potentially be dangerous if inhaled.Check with the manufacturer of the powdered pigments you use and get their recommendations on how to protect yourself against any possible health issues.
Susan, I really like the matte finish that comes with adding the cold wax to your oil paints- so I usually don’t cover them with a final varnish. It isn’t really needed unless you want a sheen or a shine. On an occasion I might use clear cold wax to seal, or sometimes the matte GamVar.
Judith. thanks so much for tuning in! Glad you enjoyed video! Sorry the music was not to your taste, remember you can turn the volume down or off during the times I am not speaking. Thanks for your feedback!
I wondered.. could I mix cold wax with metallic mica powder and use for gilding? Would it buff up to shine? And would it rub off if used on jewellery or pueces that would be handled like small sculptural pieces made from clay? Your work and tutorials are brilliant xx
Lesley, thank you for watching my TH-cam channel!! You can mix it with mica powder and powdered pigments not sure if you could use it in jewelry pieces. That is something I have not tried so I am not sure how it would be. You can buff the cold wax to a sheen on a painting once it is completely dry! Hope this helps!!xo
@@LisaBBoardwine that,s brilliant. Thank you. Some of the gilding waxes are so expensive. I have a lot of lovely mica powders already, and use cold wax on my paintings, but wondered about gilding my clay sculptures, and maybe some jewellery pieces. I.ll try. Thank you sooo much. Hugs from Scotland xx

How do you finish your pieces? Do you just polish or buff them?and if so, with what?
