I'm going to visit Artist Surfaces on monday -I live locally. I would like to use the best materials I can afford and agree the Linen looks best. However I wouldn't want to obliterate the texture for the linen with gesso. Dilema: apply gesso or no gesso? Perhaps it would be better just to coat the primed surfaces with acrylic medium? Your thoughts and advice are welcome. Thanks for all your wonderful tutorials - you are spreading the love which is the right thing to do. Keep it up please. :)
Haha, checked out their channel, funny to hear the sounds I'm using used in something else! Maybe one day I'll have that many subscribers! Thanks for subscribing!
Artists surfaces Ltd in Anniesland industrial estate, Glasgow....fantastic company and very helpful. Find them on internet - “Artreq” on the google search.. brilliant.. I have never had a problem with Allan’s speech....think the problem is probably the microphone and electronics in the production. Can highly recommend!
Hello, First, I would I like to say I love your paintings,they're stunning! I too paint, but I don't use canvas I use wood I prime them and the paint looks good on it i.e. the image am painting. My work requires a lot of glaze and I find painting on wood to be the best way and also saving in not buying canvases. Paint on the other hand makes the difference no matter what you paint on! Old masters used wood, I feel its the best, the advantage of canvas is you can hang with out a frame. Regards,
Well... a lot of false equivalences and fallacies over here. Michelangelo's painting was a fresco done with plaster. Da Vinci painted the Mona Lisa on a wooden panel. Van Gogh painted on burlap. A great artist will show greatness in whatever surface, and a bad one will always blame something else other than himself.
Yes and Da Vinci thought he might paint on what turned out to be a damp wall. His Last Supper visibly deteriorated during his lifetime and a recent restoration found little left of his original painting.
Quality stuff! Nice job mate
