I have just bought a disposable pallete but it’s not very environmentally friendly to just throw it away after use so I intend to make acrylic skins with the leftover paint, peel it off and reuse the sheet.
use a geli plate and you can get great artworks ,I use my leftovers when I am ready to just make art on the geli plate it great idea, you will get addictive to it so buy 2 big ones
I have a question about how to prevent my artwork from rotting over time do I need to prep this paper so that don't happen or can I just start painting?
Hello Concerning the Oil paper you can paint directly as the paper is already coated for the oil paint. The special treatment of this surface makes each sheet non-absorbent, so oil or solvent will not soak through. It has a "paper touch", however, due to the linen-style grain, the work appears as if on canvas. The surface allows colors to be reworked while drying. Ready to use and recommended for study or outdoor painting, this paper is available in white for a traditional choice or natural linen warm shade exclusive to Clairefontaine, much appreciated by artists. Furthermore the tear-off palette is smooth and non-absorbent paper that can be used like a palette for oil or acrylic colours. The aim of this product is to enable the artist to prepare colours on pure white surface giving this way the exact colour shade. When finished you remove the dirty sheet and the next one is ready for use. It is perfect for use either in the studio or in the open air and prevents long and annoying cleaning of plastic of wooden palette.
@@ClairefontaineTV great cause I am a mixed media artist and I use my oil products last layers of things and I get where all I want to do is work oil products so I wanted to be sure I do things right cause I heard about the rotting and if I can buy something all ready to go and I don't have to prep that's what I want lol. Thank you so much

This sort of paper is pretty tough. I actually scrape it clean, go over it with a baby wipe and use the same sheet again and it's just as good.
@@montygemma awesome that's what I like to hear
