RF Pigment Sticks over Acrylics 🎉 Fabulous !

I'll show you how I'm using RF Pigments over acrylics and acrylic inks on loose canvas to complete a painting by adding amazing variation: Exciting Marks, brushed atmospheric looks, bold colors that pop, glazes, working the sticks in wet on wet. I LOVE these RF pigment sticks.
You can also learn more about them and all the technicalities by going to this video done by someone who works at R&F

Thank you ! Yes it’s those pink under layers that are adding to the light 😉

[@callywayish]

Thank you, just beautiful and very good to learn that oil can play on top of acrylic!

[@artistspace]

Yes it can and I found the pigment sticks let you stay loose and just as spontaneous as you would with your water based paint 🤗thanks for watching !

Beautiful colors just lovely!! I signed up for Andrea’s workshop learning a lot about color temperature, values line making and composition!What’s great is that you can review areas that you want to improve on! Try it! I highly recommend it…. The workshop is very comprehensive so I am taking my time to digest it! Thank you Andrea! 🙏🏽🌠

If I use these pigment sticks over acrylics, which varnish can I use?

[@artistspace]

I don’t use any varnish and have never had a problem

[@missbehaving4710]

@@artistspace thank you that's a relief

Wonderful work as always! I'm sensitive to the fumes of oil paint and cold wax and have been experimenting with acrylics and different mediums trying to get the same effect. I'm definitely interested in the R and F pigment sticks and their medium. Do you think both emit less fumes? Thanks so much!!

[@artistspace]

They are oil paints in stick form with a little bees wax so they hold their shape… so depends what you’re sensitive to. The oils ? Solvents ? I stay clear of solvents or work with them outside whenever possible

[@mimis289]

@artistspace
I believe I'm sensitive to the solvent in the cold wax, but also some of the oils used in the paint, too. I don't have space with good ventilation, unfortunately.
Your videos have really inspired me and brought a lot of joy working with oil and cold wax.
That is why I am now experimenting with acrylics.
I will try the pigment sticks over my acrylic paintings and incorporate the R & F medium ....especially since you said it does not have a solvent! Thank you for sharing and replying!

@@mimis289 Im using RF pigments but you can do a lot with acrylics

[@Zyswest]

what is the squeegee that you mentioned? these sticks are so cool! thanks for sharing

[@artistspace]

The squeegee is a kitchen bowl scraper

[@user-ni2os1bq7v]

difference between pigment stick and oil stick or is it the same? how to clean it after use?

[@artistspace]

They are more or less the same, just different textures
