I think egg tempera is one of the most under-appreciated mediums. Your method is the best and easiest I have seen. Thanks! BTW, I sometimes paint egg tempera on tempera ground. I basically prepare the wood with glue size, then scumble a thin layer of egg tempera white (egg plus pigment which is actually a mix of titanium and marble dust). Let it dry for a while then paint my painting over this.
Nice! Thank you so much!

Muy bien explicado, gracias por el conocimiento que das de la técnica, saludos desde México
Very interesting
Ευχαριστώ πολύ! Τώρα μαθαίνω εικονογραφία και ανακαλύπτω καταπληκτικά πράγματα!
so interesting to hear you say the egg mix becomes best after 3-4 days. I wonder what that means exactly, maybe thicker, more perfectly emulsified? It looks like your vinegar was dark, & I thought a first maybe it was brandy. I will try it out and see. ( not the brandy, the 3-4 days. ) Also curious about putting myrrh in the agg mix, which just makes such intuitive sense to me, being a perfect preservative, and also part of an incense mix I really love called Basilica. ( and of course, one of the three wise men's gifts) :) I've not tried egg tempera painting yet, but was inspired by several of your videos! Years back, maybe 10-15 years ago, I felt an urging to try it after always pretty much painting in acrylic, and bought the pigments. I had to leave so much behind in a big life change... so, have just newly received some mineral pigments, and a new kolinsky brush. Thank you so much for your inspiring and generous work, and your videos.
such a fascinating medium . thank you for your videos ευχάριστο !!
Εγώ ευχαριστώ!
Thank you!
Grazie~Thank You~Bellissimo!
excellent, thanks
Thank you for the video. My hesitation with egg tempera is that I find it wasteful. At the end it feels wrong to throw away my pigment and egg yolk mixes. Any recommendations? I guess I just have to really plan and make very small mixes so I don't have a lot leftover. It may be difficult since what I would like to achieve is realism. Again, thanks so much for taking the time to share your knowledge.
It looks like if you only make the mixes as you go, dipping brush in the powder and adding to a little egg mix, all that would be 'wasted' would really be the egg, and if it lasts for a week..? The other thing you could do, is just paint remnants onto a spare surface, like mineral paper, and use later to cut up for collage or mosaic.
Please be careful with dry pigment powder, especially cadmium and heavy metals. Wear mask and work in ventilated area when you use powered pigments.
Thank you for the video! This is one of my favorite mediums.. I love the naturally luminous quality it has. Now I'm curious, how do you stop bugs from eating the paint while it's curing? That was the one problem I had.. I would let it dry before varnishing and come back a day or two later to find tiny little grooves in the paint layer where it had been eaten away.
Thank you for this video! I am an amateur iconographer and was taught to use holy water and vinegar. What do you think?
Pietro Annigoni too
Do you ever ,in one painting use casein ,with certain pigments like azure to seperate from egg ?
Thanks
Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing this:) Do you add some extra water later or you just mix pigments with this mixture of egg with same amount of water and some dropsmof vinegar?
Have you tried aquabord/clipboard?
Hello maestro! Thanks for video! I like to try this midium is sennelier dry pigment is good? Thanks
Hi! Yes I think they might be good
Thank you so much! What type of vinegar do you recommend?
Grape vinegar
Heloo! Just subscribed to your wonderful channel. Unable to source rabbit glue where I live or online....kindly advice the alternative...
sir what si the main ingredients of tempera?
Thanks you! What numbers brushs you use?
Small kolinsky usually. Like no 0 1 and 2
Can you use any acrylic varnish on egg tempera? I am trying to find a egg tempera varnish in Canada
Yes I use a varnish for acrylics and works fine
Thank you so much! Why is acrylic gesso not suitable for egg tempera?
In my experience, it beads up while painting and flecks off easily. It adheres to hide glue gesso much better.
How to protect egg tempera paintings. I have white patches on the surface of the painting.
Should I varnish? What kind of varnish?
I use an acrylic varnish
@@PaintingtheLight if an acrylic varnish will work, then why can't an acrylic gesso?
@@Alucard33592 Exactly! Why not just use acrylic all the way, and paint the whole thing? Plastic never dies, right? Linseed oil was one of the traditional sealants for icons. Of course, it means an icon is drying for up to one year after the painting job is finished, 6 months for tempera + pigment to fully cure, followed by 6 months of oil to be fully cured. In today's culture, it's ages and no one wants to wait 5 minutes. Do you want something truly sacred? Learn to wait and don't use plastic, I mean acrylic.
@@Alucard33592underneath the tempera needs to stick to the canvas; in order to do this an organic gesso is needed as acrylic gesso often leads to disadhrsion and chipping; leading to a higher chance of damage or decay of the painting
Is there a big difference between egg tempera and gouache in the way it behaves ?
Goache remains water soluble, when tempera dries it will not dissolve.
Hi Antonis. I've been following your work for a many months and I think it's a wonderful contribution to the profession of painting. I have seen various materials tested and my question is if you have experimented with enamel paint,zománcfesték ,or esmalte sintético called here in Argentina, is used for metal,wood .. greetings and my admiration for your work, thank you!
Andres thank you so much!
What is that metal stick for? I’m not an art major so idk.
Serve a poggiare la mano senza sporcare il dipinto
Is it difficult to get dry pigment powder? is it costly?
Not very difficult. Probably amazon
The cost of the pigment varies, depending on the pigment. Some are very inexpensive like earth colors.
Clayboard...
