Although the sound was weak, I loved watching you as you worked, and reworked this piece! An amazing and encouraging process!
Awesome! Thank you!
How lucky we are to get to watch this epic painting evolve? Many thanks for allowing us in your studio.
Beautiful artwork!!
Fantastic!!
Thank you.
Amazingly GORGEOUS.
yes.YES.❤
This maybe of interest to a few. I am a senior and retired glass artist ( moved out of my home where my studio was) and living on a limited pension. I have purchased second hand paintings for very little and used what’s on them as part of my under painting. I’m working on a 4’ x5’ acrylic painting I bought for $5. Not archival but it allows me to play.😁😁😁😁
That's fantastic! Really, why not? And, if you use clear gesso, then you now have a pretty archival surface to work on AND you get to see the underpainting :) Thank you for sharing this - great idea! :)
Great Idea!❤
Beautiful. Love the process and the end result. So satisfying.
It's lovely to see how you use white. I experience it as cooling down the noise, hiding pieces of color. But to me they are also forms, almost sculptures in itself. They bring balance, they make the background push back and they add depth by being in the foreground. And then there are the different transparent or opaque parts. I learn from you, to take my own efforts using white/light paint more seriously and use it more consciencely.
Yes, I think that is key - using it with thought and intention. I use a lot of white, and variations of white as there is a rather infinite range of whites ;)
Such a stunning piece of artwork Pamela! I believe it might be my favorite so far. I am continuously amazed at the calculated transformations you produce. Your are such an inspiration for me. Many thanks for everything you do to share your many talents.
Hey many thanks, Shellie! I'm so glad you find this inspiring ;) I think this may be a fave of mine as well - I love red, bold shapes, pattern, stripes, circles :) I will be posting the final video in WLG - stay tuned and thanks again!!
Thanks so much for sharing your experience, knowledge and talent with us all, Pam. Your generosity is very much appreciated. :))
Thanks, Pam, for answering my question about how to finish the edges on cradled panels! Keep these wonderful videos coming. Seeing your process is so informative. We all appreciate your generosity in sharing.
You're very welcome, Wendy! How do you finish your cradles panels? Great question!! ;)
Thanks so much for helping other painters. Many blessing to you for the wonderful person you are 🌈👀💐
You are very welcome and very kind as well :) 🌹🎉
Nancy Kane Chapman I loved every minute of this tutorial. Your design and color sense...amazing! I've seen about three or four of your videos now....not in any order but I hope to explore all of them. There's so much to learn and you are a very good teacher. Thanks so much, Pamela for this treat!
Love your work. Thanks you for all your helpful information.
Thank you so much for your videos, Pam. I find your work so interesting, so helpful, and how generous of you to share so much of your process with the world!
Aw - thank you very much, Gillian! Your appreciation inspires me to share as much as I can - life is short, and I hope by sharing others will not waste as much time as I did when I didn't know what I was doing ;)
THIS WORK INSPIRES ME!!!
Such a calm joyful voice Pamela, thanks so much for sharing your knowledge 😘
Aw - thanks so much; was the music too loud? Hmm....!
Not at all, spot on
You are an incredible talent!
Pamela your videos aren’t long enough. I’ll have to take your acrylic course one day soon, just so I can see more of you and your gift!
Haha! That’s why I created the Watch Learn Grow Library 😊 You might like it- over 80 hours of videos of m painting, critiquing, interviewing, etc 😊 If you are interested you can check it out at www.artandsuccess.com 🌼🎉
Thank you Pamela for sharing your techniques of this painting. I enjoy observing your works ,
which are beautiful !
Thanks Pam for your generosity and servant's heart. I have so much to learn from you. I want to devour your knowledge and experience. Your friend forever, Gordon S
Aw, thanks for making my day : ) You are extremely generous yourself ;)!!
@@PamelaCaughey It is amazing to see people who generously share and sacrifice. To see a person give as you do touches my heart. It is "Love" (Attitudes and actions that seek the highest eternal and biblical good in the other person's life without regard for oneself.) You are doing well. May God bless you. Your friend forever, Gordy
I love this series of videos and how you developed this marvellous piece! Only several layers could accomplish this.
There have been a lot of layers for sure! My spray paint finally arrived so today, I believe I finished the piece and it will be posted this week :)!

It’s so nice to see the finished piece, it’s exciting. I would love to try the sanding technique.
Thanks so much you are a great instructor.
Thanks, David! This wasn't quite finished - so perhaps I will do a LIVE TH-cam tomorrow or Saturday to discuss what I did to finish it ;)
Thanks Pam. I really enjoyed this series!
Many thanks, Darla!! :)
You are making a difference in my life. Such generosity talent and insight as well detailed intelligent linking of product with process. Thank you
An amazing process

I'm sure it was a beautiful work - congrats and many thanks. So glad you are inspired by these videos :)
muy buen trabajo 👏👏👏 me encanta el colage FELICITACIONES
I'm looking forward to seeing this completed. Each stage is fascinating.
Great video Pam, your process is inspiring!
Thanks, Shelley - not to mention - lots of FUN! :)!!
Thanks, Pam....really enjoyed this video!
Thank you very much, Mary! So appreciate your comment :)!!
OK, I confess ... I jumped to near the ending cuz now I think U r just messing with us ! ! When you zoom in on your large paintings to isolate various areas of your work - wow, each section is like an individual painting which is also quite amazing and wonderful.
Oh haha - no actually I think the parts would not be nearly as fun as the whole painting at this point! I did edit out a lot of "stuff", but I also like a lot of "stuff", so here we are - kind of a lot going on, but there is a part of me that likes that as well :)
Wonderful videos, and so inspiring. Can't wait to free up my painting style.
I just love this painting! Your process is so interesting and successful.
Many thanks, Marcia :) Much appreciation :)
Yes. Just yes!
Wow ;) Thank you :)
Every video inspires me to experiment more!
Super to hear that - YAY!! :)
Good to hear about how you mount your cradled wood.
I will be doing it again soon - cutting a painting into four pieces and mounting on four different sized panels :)
Love ❤️ it ‼️‼️
Thanks so much :)!!
Hi Pam. Wow I love watching your videos. So full of knowledge and info. I'd like to ask a question about sanding. Is your paint completely dry when you sand? I can't get effects like that when I sand and I use a electric sander. I find that not much come off. My paint is very dry so I wondered if that made a difference ? I can't believe you got such great effects with just a sanding block. So amazing. Thanks.
Thank you very much!
Fabulous as usual
Many thanks!! :)
Thankful for your videos.
I look at this and think. Freedom!
Yes, I agree - and it is so much fun!! :)
I love so much your art. I would love to follow your course , but for me it is to extensive. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent
Anne Marie from Montreal, Québec 🌷
Awesome 👏🏻
Anouchka Nanou many thanks 😊
Wonderful paintng, i love the colours, the lines, the white and black, a super combination! I wonder how much hours you worked/playd on it..Thanks again!
Thank you so much, Susan! :)!!
What is your final varnish--that is, what medium to you use as a final preservative layer over so many layers of paint and collage?
Love this :-.) Du you have any sketches in front of your paintings or is it just intuitiv and random.? You have two "canvases"/bords.... Are they held together or do you spit them afterwords? You might have said it, but then I did not hear. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Margaret -No I never use a sketch - I like to fly by the seat of my pants as it is exciting! I am working on two 48x48in cradled wooden panels - they were worked on together and remain a finished diptych now ;)
It interesting that when you dripped the white on the black shape it took away the impression i had that it is a torso...my eye kept going there. I wish this were possible on canvas...
Hi Pam: I have been watching this painting with interest. I am wondering at what point you decide on a colour/temperature dominance?
Great question, Sharon :) I think the temperature can go from warm to cool to warm to cool frequently - that is part of the fun of creating complex color - but yes, at some point, and usually toward the end, I will make the changes needed to hopefully ensure the color dominance ;)
from the begin you have been using different paints, have you encountered any unexpected reaction. if so give us some warnings or advice.
If the underpainting is house paint, how does that hold up over time? Does it ever cause yellowing later? I do love your process and thank you so much for the videos!
I knew the housepaint in this case would be a first layer, and it was put over gessoed panels, which are highly absorbant. There have been so many additional layers with professional paints that there is not that much of the housepaint showing in the end, but where it is, I think it will be stable and all artwork should really not be hung in direct sunlight :)
Another wonderful video! Thank you. When you want to thin cold wax and oil, do you use Gamsol Gel medium or Liquin?
Thanks Diana, yes, I think cold wax and oil with Gamsol, and routinely mix with Gamblin's Galkyd Gel for many reasons. :)
Hi Pam, wonderful videos, thank you. My question - I have tried to mono print onto my painting using brown paper like you do, and I have tried with think and thin paint, but it smears and does not come out as clean and clear as yours. How do you achieve this?
Hi Pamela, are your whites part of the loud conversation or the black shapes? Thanks
Pamela do you sell your work privately only , or in Galleries because I live in SAfrica which makes it difficult . Could you get back to me about buying one on your wall ? How do yo go about it Thank g you Alrene Fischer
Hello Arlene - many thanks for inquiring about my work. I do sell work through Radius Gallery in Missoula, MT (www.radiusgallery.com) and from my own studio. I can also make very high quality prints on anything, any size you wish - and can easily mail a print in a tube. However, mailing an original would probably need to be mailed flat and not rolled. Please feel free to email me at: pamcaughey@gmail.com to inquire further :)
Christmas eve again Pam, watching your process! I have one question for you: I have watched all these videos, but I didn't get what kind of material you used to get the very transparent veil like effect with tiny random square shapes in it. It sits on the left panel on the LL quadrant or close to the vertical mid if I remember right. (Can't pop back to check because I'll lose this comment... =)) Thanks so much for making and sharing these super interesting videos!!!
Hi Merete! That is a collage paper-a rice paper I believe with square bits of foreign newspaper ❤️❤️
@@PamelaCaughey Ah, thanks so much, it's awesome against the opacity and more solid shapes.
Pam do you sell prints at all? Or originals only?
This is my favorite one yet! Is it alright to ask how much these pieces sell for? And do you charge per square foot or by the piece itself? Time spent and or medium? I’d love to know, thanks
Great question! Because I'm in several galleries, it is important to be consistent. Working with the galleries, we came up with a multiplier of 2.25 and this is for my acrylic and cwm/oil work. Encaustics and encaustic monotype vary slightly. So, for a 4x6' piece, that's 48 x 72 x 2.25 = $7776. Galleries typically take 50%, and I pay for shipping to a gallery, and they pay for shipping back. :)
@@PamelaCaughey you're amazing ♥️
What whites and cream colors do you use?
There is an infinite number of whites; cool whites and warm whites; the critical thing is to add a minimal amount of color to maintain the high key :)
What advice do you have for building the panels?
I don't build my own cradled panels but order them or have them made by a local cabinet maker :)
Art & Success - Pamela Caughey Art I would like to build my own but not sure what is the best top surface to use..i.e for the flat part. I am not sure how thick a Baltic birch plywood would need to be for 48 x 48. Also there are some “technical panels” that are light and made of thin alumimium sandwiched round a synthetic foam... I forget the name for now. How big do you think I could go just with hardboard on a frame?
What grit sand paper do you use.
J’espère que vous comprendrai ma question en français. J’aimerais beaucoup savoir si vous utilisez un médium ou de l’eau pour rendre vos couleurs plus transparentes. Merci et votre toile est fabuleuse.
Great process, not my style.
