I love watching you create using collage papers! I have one suggestion - the music playing while you're talking is very distracting and for those of us who have hearing problems, it make hearing what you're saying very difficult. I noticed that closed caption was not available. Lowering the volume or selecting a more soothing background music would help with this problem.

Hi Janet, thanks for watching 😊. A couple of my video would not allow me to turn on closed captioning, and I think this was one unfortunately. I’m sorry to hear you couldn’t hear and that closed captioning wasn’t available to help. Your suggestion is noted and thanks. 👍

I am 73 & just about to start my Artist/creative years I have planned for myself! Prior too, my creative expression has been in designing and developing gardens and homes. I’m so excited!! I love your style. I am very drawn to encaustic and wonder if your craft is a good companion for encaustic 🤔 I will find out. ☺️

Jenn, tissue paper is an outstanding companion for encaustic. I’ve used tissue paper in my artwork for about twenty years now-for mixed media paintings, art journals, and encaustic. The transparency of the unpainted portion of the tissue paper is 100% when used in encaustic; I love the way it disappears. It’s slightly visible on other surfaces (if you look closely). And another thing I’ve done with it is apply rubber stamp images to it with archival permanent ink pads (Ranger archival or Stazon brands). I have quite a collection of them, many with abstract patterns/designs that I love to use. Also alphabet stamps. I have a feeling you’re going to love this. I didn’t start pursuing my interest is making art until I was 50 (self-taught), and I’m 69 now and semi-retired. I finally have a decent amount of time to spend on it, and I just love it MORE every day. 😊

Hi Janet! I’m so happy you find the channel helpful-that’s just what I was hoping for! Firstly, it’s very normal to start with one type of art and then keep morphing into something new; that’s actually the lifeblood of a dynamic art career, so you’re right on track! 😉 And there is nothing wrong at all with trying to do what another artist does when you’re learning and experimenting. For eons, art students (and we’re all students to some degree) have learned by trying to duplicate what other artists did, and then as they progress, they find their own voice, so again, you’re right on track. I would suggest starting with the exercise you mentioned and really try to just enjoy the process and experimenting with brush strokes and materials without much concern to how it looks. As you get more comfortable and enjoy yourself, you will begin to find that you like your work more. It’s never supposed to look great at first! (That’s the part no one tells you). Good luck and remember to have fun-that’s where we learn the best. Let me know how it goes! I’d love to hear.

Hi Marabeth, my medium I seriously love is watercolor and have loved it for many years. So….. many paintings later, now over 30 years, I have run up against a wall of boredom and seem to not be feeling exhilarated over my work these days. Yes, I sell my art, my clients are thrilled with them BUT I’m not! I remembered many moons ago loving the collage process, the feeling of the paper on piece, the endless hours that somehow, did not seem long. You have inspired me to begin again with that and see how it blooms. What would you suggest as to the process of doing this successfully on strictly watercolor surface without acrylics?

@marabethquinart

Жыл бұрын

I love watercolor too! I’d love to see your work. And I think boredom setting in is so common when our creative nature is ready for some new iteration of what we’ve been doing, so I think you’re right on track! And just adding collage to your watercolors using the golden glazing medium will work just fine with it. Let me know how it goes, Denise! I’d love to hear.

AI always, I love your art and videos. Where did you get that bird stencil? Playing with colors is so much fun. I find myself being drawn more and more to burnt oranges, reds and turquoise blues.

You inspired me to try layering transparent papers and now I can't stop playing with them. I've experimented with watercolour on wet strength tissue to make my papers, after deciding that I wasn't happy using plastic acrylics. Plus I want the transparency but I see that the really watered down acrylics you've used were actually quite transparent. I do love watercolours though more than acrylics. I'd be interested to know why you choose to use glazing medium rather than matt or gloss medium. But another thing I've learnt from someone's video is that if I stick the papers down with wallpaper paste I can use watercolours over it very easily once the papers have dried. As you might be able to tell, I'm absolutely fascinated by this process and materials. Thank you.

It is a fun process, indeed! So happy you’re enjoying working with transparent papers-I love it too. I use the glazing medium for several reasons: it doesn’t get gummy on my hands like matte medium does, and I also like to use it to make glazes with my paints and I use those sometimes over the paper, so it’s just handy to have the same product do both. And I have also found that I can put watercolors over the papers I have adhered with Golden Glazing Medium after it’s dried. They work just fine and then I spray varnish it to lock it in place before I brush varnish it.

Wish I had studio space that accommodated that, Cathy 😊

This is breathtakingly beautiful! I love seeing your process. Do you ever use Deli Paper?

Not yet but I imagine I will at some point. And thank you for the kind words 😊

Why do you glue with glazing medium vs matt medium or gel medium or gloss medium? Love your work and your videos! Thanks for sharing!!

I chose glazing medium because I was already using it to thin out my paint and make it transparent, so it’s just what I always have on hand. But any of those others would work too, I assume. Thanks for watching ☺️

That was a question I had, too! Thanks, Susan, for asking and thanks, Marabeth, for the reply!

Have delved into collage many times from the usual watercolor, how do you clean the glue medium off your hands? TIA

I use Golden’s Glazing Medium to adhere the collage to the surface and it is super easy to wash off my hands when I’m done. While I’m working with it, I can wipe my fingers on a towel and they never get too sticky like they do with glue. I highly recommend trying it.

@Marabethquinnart I looked up the tissue paper you like & have a question. Do you use just one layer? Formerly when I've used tissue paper, it won't hold wet media. Before I purchase some, I thought I'd ask. Thanks! I really enjoyed this clip & am now following you on IG 🥰

I usually add multiple layers of tissue to a painting-it adds depth, the different colors interact and it lends that dreamy feel to the overall aesthetic. I also use different brands of tissue because they have different qualities, as well as rice paper, teabag paper and mulberry paper. All are semi-transparent and lend specific qualities to the painting. If you’re having trouble with your tissue paper holding together, sometimes brushing it less when tinting it will help.

Do you paint the canvas underneath before glueing the papers & do you paint over them or do mark making lines , etc over them ?? I never know what to do so as not to ruin them . Thanks . Love your work !

I do both-sometimes I will lay down an acrylic base and then paper over, doing mark making on all layers-the base, mid-way, and then on top of everything. But other times, I paint my botanicals on the papers and don’t put paint down first-in my latest class, The Layered Botanical, I exclusively work with this process. It’s fun! And sometimes I will put paint glazes over parts of the paintings just to harmonize it or tone things down.

Have you tried Carnival wet strength tissue paper? It's fantastic to work with 😊

I haven’t Debbie-is it transparent like regular tissue paper? Tell me what you love about it!

Yes it's transparent also great if you use a gelli plate

Love the gelli plate!

I just found you. Loving your process. Quick question do you ever use oils instead of acrylic?

@marabethquinart

I used to use them a lot-I seem to do either/or, and just haven’t been set up for them in the last 5 years or so. Acrylics are just so easy and dry so fast, and that makes them really convenient. Thanks for watching 😊

Would that tissue paper work for gell plate printing?

@marabethquinart

It does work, although the tissue doesn’t have the same transparency as the ones I paint with diluted acrylic. Experiment and see how they both work-I have found uses for both.

Do you use glue to stick tissue papers? Thanks for sharing. Looks beautiful

I use Golden Liquid Glazing Medium, but there are other mediums you can use as well. I use this one because it will also thin out my paint and it adheres the paper really well without becoming really sticky.
