Hello Jan! For decades I had so much difficulty just wanting to get into my studio-too much fear, so I procrastinated-too much doubt and lack of confidence. So if this video can inspire you then I am so thrilled! I will be teaching in New Zealand in 2020! Happy painting!
@@janettereid7549 Hey - I believe I will be doing three workshops - one with Lorna Crane - brushmaker and painter - in GlenOrchy - one in Wanaka and one in Takapuna in 2020. If you are interested, please reach out to Kathie Vezzani through www.Bellissimaartescapes.com as she is the one putting the details together. These workshops are not LIVE on any websites yet so there is plenty of room!
I liked the listing of tools needed prior to your class so helpful. I was not interested in cold wax , but I was curious and so glad I listened to your explaination about it so now I know more about it I can try it at a later DATE it did seem fun so many options to use I was amazed . I never used oils painting I felt it was so difficult with use of like those oils solution s you mentioned at beginning . I was intrigued that mixture and cleaning was so MUCH easier so safe and less energy for prep and more energy to create! That's what change my mind. Maybe years ago I was not to interested in so many steps to make Artwork. Gosh! So this method so much nicer!! Absolutely! Thank you your inspiration. You make it possible to make this style to "let go and Have FUN"
Hi Pam.. I have been watching and rewatching your wonderful, informative videos...I've been working with encaustic for about two and a half years but have been increasingly very interested in cold wax. I was also an acrylic painter for about 25 years.. Searching for another deeper, perhaps, way of expression.. Anyway, wanted to thank you for all of the information and tutorials..I have redone the studio,and now have the necessary supplies, to begin. Have my oil paper taped off, mark makers at hand, cold wax and paint at the ready. Watching and listening to your timeline and bio, I now know why want to do this. It is a piece that is missing.. Hoping to keep in touch and perhaps do an online workshop. Live way over here in Eastport,Maine..(looking across the Bay to Canada), so seems more appropriate to that.. Really have loved your videos. Excellent teacher.
Hi Judith! Thank you for the wonderful comment! I so appreciate it and wish you the best and much happiness working in the cold wax medium! I will soon be launching my new online "Powerful Design and Personal Color in Cold Wax/Oils" class at the end of November should you have an interest! It is a very comprehensive course, much like the college level courses I taught in foundations - and if it is currently being beta tested by 50 of my former students who attended live workshops. If you'd like to be notified about updates as to when it is available, please visit www.artandsuccess.com/p/powerful-design-and-personal-color-in-cold-wax-oils Best, Pam :)
Pam that was great also to mark the plastic bottles of what's in side there good for safety purposes. And also rubber gloves to bring for class I noticed you wearing those what type are they? Brands available ! Thin or thick ? Is that same type you use for application for paint on canvas or not as your hand tool?
I love this tutorial.....really helps to refresh what I learned in my class with you at Lake Logan. You have such a great teaching style......wonderful modulated voice, well paced and you clearly explain all the relevant points. Have you considered doing online classes as well? I think you would do a terrific job.
Hi Elvi! So great to hear from you :) Thank you very much for such wonderful feedback - I'm so happy you enjoyed the workshop! Yes, next year I hope to work on an online class :) Best to you and Rein!
Linnnnnnnndos e esfuziantes trabalhos!!!!!!! Amo sua técnica tão livre e lúdica!!! É uma expansão de beleza e alegrias!!!!!!!! Lindos!!!😚😚😚😚👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤🎨🎨🎨🎨🎨
I like the way that the colors can be pushed around or removed completely using the same tool, and in such a " sterile " environment ! If I tried to give a similiar demo using just acrylic water based paint - there would be water everywhere. It would be a very messy procedure.
Yes, I know what you mean! I work in acrylics as well - different medium, different tools! I guess each has its pros and cons! Thanks for your note! Pam
How cool! This is so interesting to me....how long does this piece take to dry and to you put any type of finish on top? Love your style....awesome studio!
Hi Shelly - it takes hours to a few days before you can keep working on the surface - and as far as a finish, I use either cold wax medium or Gamblin's GamVar Gloss! Thanks for your questions! If you are interested in learning more about this wonderful medium, please subscribe to my newsletter on the home page of www.pamelacaughey.com and also, click on my "Workshops" link! Cheers! Pam
Loving your videos. I’m new to the idea of cold wax, I use a lot of non acrylic supplies and am in cvp2019, I use oil pastels...cold wax looks fun. But so far the mediums I have seen all have either turpentine or orange oil, both of which I am allergic to. I do tolerate oil pastels, and I was considering making my own out of supplies I tolerate and pigments so thought cold wax looked like a fun medium to mix with that as well. Have you come across any cold wax mediums that don’t have turpentine or orange oil?
Hi Regina, I love the gray palette paper made by Richeson. You can view all my favorite studio supplies at my new teaching website at: www.artandsuccess.com/p/resources Also, I have all of my free TH-cam videos organized at my website as well - much easier to view them as they are categorized :) They are here: www.artandsuccess.com/p/videos-tutorials
HI Joyce! I do teach online - you can check out my flagship painting course here: bit.ly/Pam_PDPC (I do LIVE workshops around the world, but due to the pandemic, my 2020 workshops including 3 in New Zealand and 1 in Vienna, were unfortunately cancelled until further notice).
For paintings that have a greater than 1:4 ratio of cwm:oils it is recommended you do use cwm rather than a varnish. Allow your painting to dry thoroughly, and then apply cwm with a clean blue shop towel in a thin layer. Once dry, you can buff to a slight satin finish or leave as matte finish. Best, Pam
where you can buy those canvas wholesale or any tutorial how to make it ? or what material you use ? sorry my ignorance im not and professional artist , i just want to make something really big like that to surprise my wife but i dont know what canvas to buy everything big is so so expensive maybe im looking the wrong side , i want to do like a triology like 2 meters x 3 m
Hi Miss Dchamps - I paint on wood panels - 1/8" top and a cradled panel. You can contact a local carpenter who could make any size for you! Good luck! Pam
Pamela Caughey that's and I really love your work ! Do you have anything in miami ? Would you come for art Basel in December ? If not you should I can help you
I hope to meet you one day, Regina! Here are my workshops and the link where you can always find them :) : www.artandsuccess.com/p/cold-wax-oil-workshops
All of my 2020 workshops have been cancelled due to Covid 19; however, I have an excellent online course - I am offering $100 of this month (June 2020): bit.ly/PDPC_100
Me encantan tus vídeos, pero solo puedo mirarlos ya que no entiendo inglés. Podrías tu o alguien traducirlos o subtitular en español? Nos harías un gran favor a toda la comunidad hispanohablante. Te lo agradeceríamos infinitamente. Gracias
Hola, estoy en el proceso de tener varios videos de TH-cam con subtítulos en español, y pronto ofreceré mi nuevo curso de pintura, diseño poderoso y color personal con cera fría y aceites con subtítulos en español también. Gracias pam
Thank you for your great tutorials! So informative! I have recently switched to water soluble oil paints and wonder if I would be able to use them with cold wax mediums?
Really learned a lot from your introductory materials and tools video. You have a great manner. Thanks.
A helpful, innovative and informative lesson. Thank you.
I got so excited watching this that I kept forgetting to breathe!! I really cannot thank you enough for sharing your talents!
OMG !!!! and this is only a demo of the tools ! WOW . Love it !!!! Kind regards - Judi - Australia
Love this series, look forward to next video

Linnnnnnnndos e esfuziantes trabalhos!!!!!!! Amo sua técnica tão livre e lúdica!!! É uma expansão de beleza e alegrias!!!!!!!! Lindos!!!😚😚😚😚👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤❤🎨🎨🎨🎨🎨
what are the palettes you use as canvas?
I like the way that the colors can be pushed around or removed completely using the same tool, and in such a " sterile " environment ! If I tried to give a similiar demo using just acrylic water based paint - there would be water everywhere. It would be a very messy procedure.
Yes, I know what you mean! I work in acrylics as well - different medium, different tools! I guess each has its pros and cons! Thanks for your note! Pam
Come to New Zealand and do some workshops ... one day.
Pam, you mention 16 paintings are created in your workshop. what sizes are these? after the 5x7 divided works on paper, can we go much larger?
Yes - you can work any size you like in my online course; it is $100 off this month :) Here is the link: bit.ly/PDPC_100

Can i mix this Cold Wax with acrylic colors ?
Or it will support only with oil colors ?
por que una clase tan interesante no esta en español...por favor America del sur habla español
Loving your tutorials, what do you recommend for the actual working palette?
Hi Regina, I love the gray palette paper made by Richeson. You can view all my favorite studio supplies at my new teaching website at: www.artandsuccess.com/p/resources
Also, I have all of my free TH-cam videos organized at my website as well - much easier to view them as they are categorized :) They are here: www.artandsuccess.com/p/videos-tutorials
You can also paint the underside of heavy glass panel with a neutral grey.
They scrape clean & no fuss
Can you use water-soluble oils with cold wax, and does cold wax have an odor?
Where is this workshop, I thought you taught classes on line
HI Joyce! I do teach online - you can check out my flagship painting course here: bit.ly/Pam_PDPC (I do LIVE workshops around the world, but due to the pandemic, my 2020 workshops including 3 in New Zealand and 1 in Vienna, were unfortunately cancelled until further notice).
Pamela another question do you use pure cold wax medium in this video or is it out of your pre mixed tin with galkyd gel???
Hoe long does it take for Coldplay was to dry?
Can you share purchasing information about your work apron?
Please tell what type cooking oil do you use?
chromefree Any kind of cooking oil will be fine-use the cheapest! 😉 Cheers- Pam
Hi Pamela, Thanks for your tutorial. How I can to apply the cold wax for the final coat replacing the varnish, on deep textured oil paintings?...
For paintings that have a greater than 1:4 ratio of cwm:oils it is recommended you do use cwm rather than a varnish. Allow your painting to dry thoroughly, and then apply cwm with a clean blue shop towel in a thin layer. Once dry, you can buff to a slight satin finish or leave as matte finish. Best, Pam
Thank you Pamela, but for my oil painting I did't use cwm, still is good idea to use cwm for the final protection?
where you can buy those canvas wholesale or any tutorial how to make it ? or what material you use ? sorry my ignorance im not and professional artist , i just want to make something really big like that to surprise my wife but i dont know what canvas to buy everything big is so so expensive maybe im looking the wrong side , i want to do like a triology like 2 meters x 3 m

Thank you for your great tutorials! So informative! I have recently switched to water soluble oil paints and wonder if I would be able to use them with cold wax mediums?
Hi Diana - yes, I believe you can add cwm to water soluble paints - have fun! Best, Pam :)
Wonderful!!!! The colors are acrylics? Thanks?
Does this process require a hard surface? I am inspired to seal some of my existing paintings with clear gesso and use cold wax on top ?
Hi Tom - sorry for late reply - I missed this one! It is actually Cold Wax/Oil :)
@@maryellis1784- Yes - you can put Clear Gesso over an acrylic and proceed with Cold Wax and Oil - I love doing that!
Sorry Coldwax mixed with oils I mean
