The hand?🤣🤣🤣

HOW TO DIY- GLASS SLAB/ BASE DE VIDRIO PARA PREPARAR PINTURAS :) If you want to make a bigger/cheap/diy slab, you can buy a piece of glass(any size you want or need), and you can prepare it with a 60 grit sandpaper (sandpaper is basically a sheet of sillicon carbide). You need to sand the surface of the glass you are gonna work on until it became opaque (you can check by placing your hand under the glass, the less clear it gets the better). Be sure to cover your mouth and nose using a mask while sanding, if you use water through the process you can reduce the risk of breathing the glass particles. Enjoy your new slab. Si desea hacer una base de vidrio más grande / barata / diy, puede comprar un trozo de vidrio (del tamaño que desee o necesite), y puede prepararlo con un papel de lija de grano 60 (el papel de lija es básicamente una hoja de carburo de silicio). Debe lijar la superficie del vidrio en el que va a trabajar hasta que se vuelva opaco (puede verificar colocando su mano debajo del vidrio, cuanto menos claro sea, mejor). Asegúrese de cubrirse la boca y la nariz con una máscara mientras lija; si usa agua durante el proceso, puede reducir el riesgo de respirar las partículas de vidrio. Disfruta tu nueva base para preparar pintura.

may i give you some advice how to load paint in tube way more faster, you just need to put paint in a wax paper then rool it up, make sure if it fits in to the tube after that you put that rolled paint in tube then simply squeze all of the paint with some round thing like glass bottle or something.

He just needs to make a piping bag, like pastry chefs do. Very little waste.

Just started Oil Painting. I’m very happy I’m taking the time learning from the Masters of the craft who have studied a great deal to also pass the knowledge on . Especially happy to find that people still care about true Quality that will stand the test of time. Hope I’ll be able to meet some of you great Artists in my lifetime.

So basically you make your own Zorn pallete. Makes a lot of sense considering you seem to specialize in portraits. I think I would do the same. It’s the way the masters did it. Do what they did and you can relate to how they felt about their paintings.

Just got sent here by Jazza. Massive props to you. Your paints look beautiful

Absolute dedication and perfectionism about one's craft right here!!! Huge respect Cesar! This video inspires me so much!!

The way u speak and move your hands is art! You're a huge inspiration to me

Thank you César for your generosity in sharing your knowledge

You are amazing my friend.The passion and the way you share with us, just awesome.

Fantastic explanation of making oil paints from pigments. thank you

You are so cute when you do your videos. Muchas Gracias. Love your painting. Love your generosity. Thank you Cesar!

que genio! grande cesar!!

This is so inspiring. Thank you for your dedication to the medium. I’ll be trying this out today I’m so excited!

Bravo!! What an amazing video

Glad you had some background info on stabilisers - fillers is such a throw around term and people don't realise how and why they're added

Thank you for the wonderful video master. It was really informative. Your passion and dedication to the craft is what makes it so mesmerising. Loved your T shirt design. I hope you will bring more such stuff..

The video is very inspiring. I am waiting for my bigger glass muller and the empty tubes and then I can start making my own oil paints... Thanks for boosting our motivation for making our own paints.

Foi dos vídeos que mais gostei...sou fã

You are so fun to watch... you got a nice smile and i can see you have a beautiful heart... blessings one love

Wow what patience. I would imagin the masters had time to do this. We have too many distractions today. I like this video Cesar. Too often today we want everything NOW. I think that time and patience is something the masters had that we dont have today. Thank you love the video. PS Im buying the T Shirt

You are great, man. Rispeect!

Boom Shankar man... love it... totally inspiring... Im a very poor artist, living in the middle of nowhere, self sustain me and my family... we live close to the land... to learn how to make my own paints is totally my bag... one day i will be able to afford fancy things... one day... love your stuff... more videos please

Thank you for sharing this process! Last year I started building my own frames, stretching and oil prepping my linen. It changed the quality of my pieces significantly. I look forward to creating my own paints as I use up my existing stash of oils. I know the result will be the same. Thank you for continually inspiring and pushing us further, and for sharing resources!

I started using zecchi paints after you recommended them two years back! :D

Thanks, I needed to make fluroscent neon colours and had both the pigments and the oil but was worried if other binders are necessary, so now I can get on with it immediately without any further contemplation.

@gavinjenkins899

Other binders will change the tradeoffs between drying time and amount of yellowing. I actually think it's generally better to use a moderate mixture of lean and fat when making a paint so that it's easier to choose later if you want it to be lean or fat when painting and using it (versus 100% oil takes more alkyd or turpentine or whatever added in the moment to overwhelm it). You may also need some preservatives if you're using your own plant based pigments, as they can mold. And you may want some fillers if it's a very strong pigment, like adding chalk or marble powder. For example Pthalo Blue is super strongly tinting and hard to use if it does NOT have filler in it, filler actually makes it a better paint. Weaker pigments are better without filler. Filler also of course saves you money if you like to use thick paint. Same as how it saves money for professional paint manufacturers, it does for you too.

Excellent video. Thank you!

I wholeheartedly believe that the secrets of painting come with the familiarity of the materials and/or subjects

This video makes me want to make my own oil paints and start painting again.

That shirt is awesome 👌

A true Renaissance man. Thank you!

interesting videos👍👍👍👍👍so useful, Sir🙏

There are good paint brands (even in student grade), and there are bad paints too. I have extensively read upon the subject and used some of them. They usually add extenders (they also call it fillers), namely calcium-carbonate (PW 18), and it is true that that the ratio of pigment is lower in those oil paints, yet calcium carbonate, chalk, or whatever, has a tendency not only to make the wet paint more workable for impasto or free brushwork, but also strengthens the paint film, of course all comes to the cost of being lighter in tone! But this is up to preference how one makes use of it. If one is following the "Old Master Technique" it is a more wiser choice to make your own paint and use as much putty as you need, or not at all, but mostly at the highlights. Rembrandt and Velázquez have used it, so, I think extenders might be tested in archival quality as well.

Wouldn't it be better to just mix up some binder+chalk by itself with no pigment and put that in a tube on its own so that you can choose in the moment when to mix it on the palette versus not? Instead of having it built in and impossible to remove?

Awesome!!!

Amazing!! I've discovered your channel lately, and I'm so inspired by your art and by your attitude. Thanks for the great vids. By the way, if you can make someday some videos with key advices for sketching architecture and urban landscape, it would be great!!

Amazing.

Great video Cesar. Your videos are always educational as well as entertaining. So I've got a zillion oak trees around the house. Every years tens of zillions of acorns fall...all by themselves. I was wondering if you, or anybody you know, (or even other viewers) have ever experimented, or aware of any research/testing on using acorn oil to mix with pigments to produce acorn oil paint. Issues I can think of are drying properties, viscosity fluid enough to actually interact properly with the pigment, yellowing, etc.; or even if not used primarily to make the paint, used as an additive medium. I'm thinking extraction of the oil may be simple enough in small batches with an oil press, and I got free ones everywhere.

I wished I watched this before I tried it, I did two mistakes that were hilarious to try and fix. 1. I did not research enough and I believe we have that same red pigment, it separated in the tube like you said! haha I ended up starting over and using pure beeswax (I could not find your recommendation but this worked the difference I could find is that it took away some of the gloss and make it more matte, so if that's something you're looking for) Second. I hit the cap against the table...and bent it...lol Subscribing.

Do you add wax directly or a prepepared wax medium? Recipe?

of course you need stabilizers for certains colors, as you have realized. Zecchi's Veneziano medium is probably wax based (usually no more than 2% of wax is required for weight of pigment), or you could use aluminium stearate. Either way the "only oil and pigment" it's part of a rethorical marketing concept of a well known brand. Many times additives are NECESSARY for a good color. Even Michael Harding that are handmade (gorgeous colors) use them when it's needed.

odd question can i use a coffee grinder or some kind of electric grinder i have issues with that can break

brilliant thank you

I get fustrated with paint being thin on the pigment heavy on the binders.. I am going to do this thank you. My family loves your videos..

fascinating episode. Do you need to worry more about how you store tubes of your own paint? Is there a shelf-life concern?

What do you do for blues and yellows?

Hello, how do you clean the glass plate after? especially after dealing with a toxic pigment like lead white?

Which type of muller would you recomend? A muller with a stubby handle, or a muller with a long handle?

What about using safflower oil? At least for the whites/light colors?

A GOOD WAY TO TUBE PAINTS IS TO GET A PIECE OF WAX PAPER OR DISPOSABLE PALETTE, OUT THE PAINTS ON THE EDGE OF THE PAPER, RAPPED IT UP AND PUT THE EDGE WITH THE PAINT IN THE OPENING OF THE TUBES. THEN TAKE A CYLYINDICAY OBJECT AND ROLLOVER THE WAX PAPER, THE ROLLING WILL SQUEEZE THE PAINT INTO THE TUBE AND THEN TAKE THE PALETTE KNIFE TO SCRAPE THE EXCESS AND PUT IT IN THE TUBE.

This sounds very therapeutic 😌 I've always wanted to try mixing my own paints. But what about making your own pigments? Are there any colors that you create the pigments for instead of buying the pigments?

Do we need the tube or will air tight jars work?

Is oil pastels or oil sticks made the same way? Thanks for sharing.

But you then mix the paint with your own fixative right?

You really don't need to do that, at least not the vast majority of the time. Most pigments I mix, I see zero improvement beyond like 5 minutes of mulling. If you ground the pigment itself like if you bashed up some ochre from your backyard or charcoal or something, that's when it would take the longest, but any pigment commercially bought is usually very fine already and mixes in very quickly.

@@trickyone7171 Different pigments are more or less absorbent, so it depends. But on average maybe roughly 50% oil 50% pigment by volume. Pigment usually weighs more than oil, so maybe like 150g of paint? More if it's lightweight like charcoal for black. Less if it's a heavy mineral pigment like iron oxide (red ochre). You can also fill it out with chalk, it makes the final paint a little bit sparkly which is not good, but some pigments are already a little bit sparkly so for those it works well if it's also a strong pigment.

Does linseed oil go rancid when mixed in pigment, afterwards? I felt like I heard a guy or two tell me so, but I wanted to ensure. If so, what oils can you use aside from linseed that doesn't go rancid?

Can I use pouring oil with pigments

The empty tubes I use are already open at the cap end, so when I've finished putting in the paint at the rear of the tube. I take the cap off and thump down as you did when filling it, but with the cap side up. This is to burp out any air pockets that may have been closed in when sealing the bottom. I now tend to lightly squeeze the tube to lessen the tube bulging out at the base too much. Sometimes there's a "pop" as air comes out, sometimes not. It's possible that any small air pockets do no harm. Not providing enough air to cause a bit of drying within the paint*, but I do it anyway for piece of mind. When knocking down with the open cap side up the paint level will tend to drop a little. Naturally all I need to do is lightly squeeze the tube so that the paint level comes back up to the thread top. * I've only once had a paint tube dry on me when I made a tubed pre-mix of bought paints. Both colours were slow drying, but when I tubed them up together, the pre-mix was rock hard within a month! I believe there must have been a reaction from an added drier added and required for one colour, but unnecessary and undesired for the other. Mixed together, they sped to making a small paper weight.

From where we can buy pigment and empty tubes. Could you give me the website please. Thank you Cesar I love your work. 🙏❤️

I suspect that making your own oil paints might create a more intimate bond between the painter and his work. Do giants, like Windsor and Newton< market pigments?

My vermilion pigment produces a yellow layer of slime when directly mixed with oil. Is it just bad pigment? I tried grinding it with stone instead of glass and it was a more beautiful paint but it still produced a little bit of yellow sweat. De mayerne does describe another way of grinding vermilion where it is first ground in water and put on chalk to dry, afterwards it is mixed with oil on the pallette. Has anyone tried this one? Is it more stable? It is the practice of the old masters and he describes how it may be put in a cup with some water on top so I guess it doesn't seperate from the oil or sweats a lot? Imma try it next time i need vermilion.

How do we grind pigments to just 2 microns?
