Here is a short video introducing the use of modelling paste incorporated with acrylic paint. A few key techniques and tips are demonstrated in order to help create your own masterpiece! Enjoy!
it's 4 years later, I find this video and within the first 3.5 seconds I'm like "Thumbs Up!". Good choice in music my friend ;) And thank you for the post!
I'm about to try using this with oils by layering modeling paste, then acrylic gesso, then oils on top. I'm painting an abstract so any accidental cracking, etc should still look ok.
I heard it can be used under real gold leaf - to give a more ‘pillow’ look - for example if you are making a calligraphy letter and want to cover it with gold leaf but want it standing proud of the paper or vellum - use this first (purists would use home made gesso) and then the size for sticking and then the gold leaf. But as gold leaf is SO thin I wonder if this paste has any grittiness to it - that would show through the gold leaf - but I guess one could sand it - but it might be a small letter one is gilding so hard to get at with sand paper after the paste dries. ( use 1,000 girt paper - get at Lee Valley)
Hello, I'm here to learn about this kind of art for support my little girl explore her talent. If I want to add some gold leaf, do I need add some kind of glue or something before it ? Thank you for sharing ! :)
I'm sorry, I'm confused by your comment that you can mix it with watercolor "after it has dried". Do you mean you can apply wc over it once dried. That isn't mixing to me. Or can you mix it with wc before it's dry and applying it that way with color?
carmen letra Hi! If you meant plaster of paris, no....that is very dry and breakable. I think it would easily chip and crack. Moulding paste is stiff but stays a bit more flexable than plaster. 😊

Once the paste is dry, what’s the best technique to use acrylics, big canvas.

Interesting that you can use it with watercolor???? also...they are called palette knives! I wish you would actually do a painting to show us.
Thank you Iara for this tutorial
My goodness. Your voice Is calming. Beautiful ^,^
Very helpful.
4:26 How about add a little amount of modeling paste, that way you don't have to waste a lot of paint. Agree or disagree? I'll take both!
Can you apply the paste, then your paint, let it dry, and then do another layer of paste and paint on top?
how do you get your paint to not crack?

So extremely helpful. Thank you so much.
Thank you!
Is it possible to use it AFTER you paint in your canvas and paint it over once it drys?
Owen McCafferty yes you can!
Thanks for the info..great job.... Have any music by Sinatra.. lol
Whenever I use it it’s so matte after drying is there a way to make it glossy? Also is there a difference between it and impasto?
yes you can instead use a texture gel if you want it with a more glossy finish!
@@ericamarie11895 thank you appreciated
Is it possible to use the gel on various places of the canvas and do acrylic pour over it?
6:19 , perfect timing
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA !!!
LOLLL
Thank you
you are using a regular modeling paste? because I know there is different ones
Thank youu
Thanks, this was useful!
Thanx, you answered questions I had!
GREAT tutorial! 👍👍👍
Good video, but better without music
the demonstration is very good, but the bits of music were unnecessary, and it would be better without them.
How to remove it ?
Thanks!
thank u I am new at paste it helped me out
Yes to Frank ocean
My mounding paste is extremely thick. How I can soften it?
SmartIndianWomen try working in small amounts of spring water.
Thanks for the tutorial! Do you have an instagram or website with your paintings?
Can I used paste of Paris instead this you used ?

Come si fa x avere la traduzione in italiano?......grazie
you sound like youre from montreal
Is abstract another word for it doesn't really look like anything but I want to call it a painting anyway?
No. Good abstract painting uses all the same techniques and composition as a normal painting. Good abstract anyway.
Is this comment another way of saying I don't know anything about art but want to seem clever anyway?
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.
Kinda cringing when the wrong name for a tool of art is being used for palette knives. Spatula is a utensil used in kitchen.
tutorial is helpful. the music is awful please just leave it out :)
no, you’re not doing an abstract painting when you force feed me music. you’re doing multi-media.
Please please please remove the music it’s very distracting.
I don’t need a “tutorial “ to learn how to play with it.
Jesus Christ. Why do people like to hear themselves talk !!! Took her over 3 minutes to get to actually using the paste.
