I'm a self taught person! Been painting for 75 years! Never heard of "oiling out" until recently. Keep hearing people complain about how long oil paints to dry and about the surfaces are shining or not! How much oil paints shine, is how thick the paint is and type of medium thats used. I believe that I have found the answer. When I was a kid, I bought a a antique oil painting and noticed that it had NO texture or "ridges" of paint! HOW? Much later I discovered how to paint in multiple thin layers, each time building up to the desired layers of colors and tones. SAVED A TON Of MONEY IN PAINT! Each time drying much faster. If that was to slow, I would use a "cobalt" solution to speed things up! Sometimes within hours. My painting took on another whole new path. Then I discovered that the paint was weakon the surface like chalk and very dull when dry. Along came " oiling" and saved that. Now I can control whether I want it shiny or dull. My latest painting is is done on well sealed and gessod 1/8 inch plywood - needs no gaudy and expensive frames ! The Mona Lisa was painted on wood panel that is around 400 years old.! I also use epoxy putty for texture and a raised surface to give it a 3-D effect! Want to experiment with air dry putty next! With todays new brushes and materials we have tremendous opportunities that the old masters never had! Keep painting and enjoy!😊

Always great to learn something from you, Jason. One thing I like about oiling out is that it evens out the shine of the surface but allows you to continue to work on the painting. If you want to add something or correct something you don't like, it allows you to do so. Varnish seems to be the end. Your comments are always great. Also, I love your paintings, including the still life I received from you a while back!

@nathaniel86653 жыл бұрын
This is really helpful. I have some questions about using W&N Artists' Painting Medium specifically for this. Do you find that there is any yellowing or darkening that happens over time with this process? I'm a bit paranoid about that possibility. Given that the W&N is formulated with stand oil, rather than standard linseed oil, would you still recommend waiting a full 6 mos to apply a final varnish?
@walcottfineart5088
3 жыл бұрын
To be honest I am unsure about the darkening. Those type of changes usually take decades to really show so it's hard to predict how newer materials will react over time. You can always oil out with a mixture of good linseed oil and thinner, equal parts. The general consensus today is that you don't need to wait 6 months to varnish unless you have really thick areas on your painting. 3 is probably fine. Thanks for watching! :)

Hi Jason, I watched your varnishing video as well and I was just wondering - if the goal is to make the colors lively again and to make a protective film over the painting, couldn't linseed oil theoretically (or another drying oil) be used in place of a varnish such as damar? If its done at the end when the painting has dried enough it seems that they both would serve the same function
@walcottfineart5088
2 жыл бұрын
Great question! Oiling out is exactly what you just described, it feeds oil into the surface until it's at an even sheen and the colors are saturated. However varnish is still highly recommended as it also serves as a removable protecting film over the painting. Once linseed oil is dry you can never remove it, but varnish will always remain removable. That way if the painting ever needs to be cleaned/restored you can just take off the old varnish and put fresh on. Some modern varnishes also protect from UV light. Thanks for watching! :)

That's a good question! I would avoid using retouch varnish if you think you are going to oil out. Oiling out can be done at any stage, you just have to let it dry in between layers. You might be OK, but keep the solvent to a minimum or it could reactivate the varnish. If you have a painting that already has retouch on it, I would finish with that method. Next time choose one or the other. Thanks for watching!

Hi Richi, Unfortunately there is no easy quick fix for your issue. You need to make sure that the painting will stand the test of time and not have issues in the long term. There's not much you can do to speed the drying of the oil and you need to get it off the varnish layer ASAP. Long and better way: I would recommend wiping off the linseed oil as much as possible and then removing the varnish. Oil should never be applied on top of varnish. Then once that is done, you can oil out with an alkyd medium like Galkyd thinned with some odorless thinner. Once that's dry (about a week) you can revarnish. The alternative short answer is if you and your customer can live with the matte/glossy spots, at least remove the linseed oil and apply another coat of varnish. That way you could still get the work to your client more quickly. It's not ideal but those are the best options. Don't try to incorporate any driers into the mix, that will lead to cracking down the road. I sincerely hope that helped! Best of luck to you.

I'm a self taught person! Been painting for 75 years! Never heard of "oiling out" until recently. Keep hearing people complain about how long oil paints to dry and about the surfaces are shining or not! How much oil paints shine, is how thick the paint is and type of medium thats used. I believe that I have found the answer. When I was a kid, I bought a a antique oil painting and noticed that it had NO texture or "ridges" of paint! HOW? Much later I discovered how to paint in multiple thin layers, each time building up to the desired layers of colors and tones. SAVED A TON Of MONEY IN PAINT! Each time drying much faster. If that was to slow, I would use a "cobalt" solution to speed things up! Sometimes within hours. My painting took on another whole new path. Then I discovered that the paint was weakon the surface like chalk and very dull when dry. Along came " oiling" and saved that. Now I can control whether I want it shiny or dull. My latest painting is is done on well sealed and gessod 1/8 inch plywood - needs no gaudy and expensive frames ! The Mona Lisa was painted on wood panel that is around 400 years old.! I also use epoxy putty for texture and a raised surface to give it a 3-D effect! Want to experiment with air dry putty next! With todays new brushes and materials we have tremendous opportunities that the old masters never had! Keep painting and enjoy!😊

Always great to learn something from you, Jason. One thing I like about oiling out is that it evens out the shine of the surface but allows you to continue to work on the painting.

Can you use a clear blend/glazing medium to avoid yellowing ?
This is really helpful. I have some questions about using W&N Artists' Painting Medium specifically for this. Do you find that there is any yellowing or darkening that happens over time with this process? I'm a bit paranoid about that possibility. Given that the W&N is formulated with stand oil, rather than standard linseed oil, would you still recommend waiting a full 6 mos to apply a final varnish?
@walcottfineart5088
3 жыл бұрын
To be honest I am unsure about the darkening. Those type of changes usually take decades to really show so it's hard to predict how newer materials will react over time. You can always oil out with a mixture of good linseed oil and thinner, equal parts. The general consensus today is that you don't need to wait 6 months to varnish unless you have really thick areas on your painting. 3 is probably fine. Thanks for watching! :)
Hi Jason, I watched your varnishing video as well and I was just wondering - if the goal is to make the colors lively again and to make a protective film over the painting, couldn't linseed oil theoretically (or another drying oil) be used in place of a varnish such as damar? If its done at the end when the painting has dried enough it seems that they both would serve the same function
@walcottfineart5088
2 жыл бұрын
Great question! Oiling out is exactly what you just described, it feeds oil into the surface until it's at an even sheen and the colors are saturated. However varnish is still highly recommended as it also serves as a removable protecting film over the painting. Once linseed oil is dry you can never remove it, but varnish will always remain removable. That way if the painting ever needs to be cleaned/restored you can just take off the old varnish and put fresh on. Some modern varnishes also protect from UV light. Thanks for watching! :)

That's a good question! I would avoid using retouch varnish if you think you are going to oil out. Oiling out can be done at any stage, you just have to let it dry in between layers. You might be OK, but keep the solvent to a minimum or it could reactivate the varnish. If you have a painting that already has retouch on it, I would finish with that method. Next time choose one or the other. Thanks for watching!

Hi Richi, Unfortunately there is no easy quick fix for your issue. You need to make sure that the painting will stand the test of time and not have issues in the long term. There's not much you can do to speed the drying of the oil and you need to get it off the varnish layer ASAP. Long and better way: I would recommend wiping off the linseed oil as much as possible and then removing the varnish. Oil should never be applied on top of varnish. Then once that is done, you can oil out with an alkyd medium like Galkyd thinned with some odorless thinner. Once that's dry (about a week) you can revarnish. The alternative short answer is if you and your customer can live with the matte/glossy spots, at least remove the linseed oil and apply another coat of varnish. That way you could still get the work to your client more quickly. It's not ideal but those are the best options. Don't try to incorporate any driers into the mix, that will lead to cracking down the road. I sincerely hope that helped! Best of luck to you.
