    What paper are you using and what grade/number of charcoal pencils did you use, especially for the initial block-in?

  • @Classdemos
    @Classdemos4 ай бұрын

    I was using Canson Mi-Teintes Paper- Royal Blue color. The pencils were Wolff’s brand carbon pencils, B and 2B with a white charcoal pencil for the lights. The carbon pencils hold a better point that standard charcoal pencils, which tend to get dull quickly. Unlike other types of pencils, the carbon pencils will work well with charcoal, if you decide to use it at some point in the process.

    Imagine if the mass production of paint tubes in the later 19th century and their consistancy had not been intruduced to the art world.... The myriad of different techniques that would have subsequently been created which now, alas, have not. Then again, plein air painting probably wouldnt have reached the heights it did.

    What is not mentioned or considered, is that Rembrandt did not paint like a figourative painter does today, which is to paint wet into wet like an impressionast. Instead Rembrandt would paint, and then let it dry and then scumble and glaze over the top of his dried work, let that dry completely and then do another layer over the top again. This is how he built his impasto areas and textures. At every stage he got it right, and then let it dry, and then painted another layer into the dried paint. I am however fascintated to learn about the filler that he used, chalk or ground sand. I did not know that.

    Temperature also affects oil paint viscosity. I watched a plein air painter paint a cityscape, as a snow storm started. The paint got thicker as the snow came down faster and faster, and as the temperature dropped. Near the end of the painting, the painter had to string out the paint onto the canvas, or glop it on. The painting really did look like a city in a blizzard. I dont know how he did it. I've bundled up, and tried painting during just a light fluffy snow, and could only manage maybe 45 minutes, or an hour tops.

    It would be interesting to make an exact copy using some modern techniques. For instance, the surface could be laser scanned to create a topographical duplicate file that could be fed into a CnC machine. The machine would need to be extremely accurate and work in 5 dimensions to capture the textures. Application of color would be very tricky. A high resolution printer would apply it and many trial examples would need to be created until the three dimensional coverage could be achieved. Then I suspect that a final clear coating would need to be applied but it must duplicate different sheens across the surface. What a fun project this would be.

    Have you considered that if he were alive today he would not want his methods revealed. If it was something he was happy to share with the world he would have written it. So, out of respect for this great man why not let the mystery continue and let us enjoy his illusion without revealing his secret. I don’t know many magicians who like their magic revealed to the world.

    The "magic" you refer to is in the artist's consciousness. Analysing materials is interesting but will not inform,however minutely one looks, as to how he did it. This is a matter of the mind and experience. The use of silica was not for "economy" as she suggests. That suggestion is ludicrous.' It was used for its refractive index and body. It refracts light. It is like analyzing in the quantum levels.You know the electrons are there and even behave like objects but you can find them exactly. Same with Rembrandt. Even he was approximately exact and knew the quantum aspects of painting. Same with Leonardo and Turner.

    It’s not magic it’s hard work. Who gives authority to an art historian about the craft of painting. They are not painters themselves so much bs in the art world! Don’t believe what these guys say , show me your paintings and I will trust you. They don’t know how to do it, that’s impasto Velazquez did the same thing. They are ocre sands in the world and of course will have quartz, this woman it’s an ignorant , in south Spain you find ochre yellow and red ochre in nature that’s how they use the power mix with oils, walnut oil. Not a clue how to paint. They need to read how to create oil paint there’s a treate. It depends if what to need to do if you need to dry fast you use sandarac oil. Waisting public money in stupid things. All the painters used the same colors. They didn’t measure or have the same temperatures.I know what Rembrandt used and you are not going to find out with a microscope. These people are dumb and not artists they say dumb things.

  • @anthonywilson8998

    My own experience is that how long a mixed paint is left produces various viscosity and is controlled by time alone. Semi dry oil paint is almost sculptural like soft clay and will be thicker to use as a sculptural effect. Also a hit and miss effect creates its own roughness or happy surface,so examination of content makes no difference. It is all the same paint but of differing age.waiting untill the correct stiffness is achieved before applying as a texture finish as fit jewellery highlights ,thay are actually 3 dimensional mini sculptures to which paler colours can be added to lighten or darken.

  • @beccagee5905

    Temperature also affects the viscosity of oil paint. I once watched a plien air painter, painting a cityscape during a snow storm. The more intense the storm, and drop in the temperature, the thicker the paint became. He literally had to string the paint, or glop it on, in order to add more paint. It was pretty intense, and the painting looked like a blizzard in the end. You could feel the storms energy just looking at the painting.

    Rembrandt allowed paint to thicken on the palette before applying the paint. He rarely cleaned off the paint on the palette and he used this nearly dried paint to create beautiful surface textures. Cold wax was also used. I completely disagree with the assertion that he used different mixtures of mediums for different areas of the painting. It was all about dry vs. wet.

    Megilp Megilp /məˈɡɪlp/ also known as Macgilp and McGuilpis is an oil painting medium consisting of a mixture of mastic varnish and an oil medium: such as walnut, linseed, safflower, poppy, or black oil (linseed oil) cooked with litharge or white lead. Earlier recipes may omit the mastic and substitute wax.[1]

One of the persons in this here film, young here, is in the My Rembrandt film--years older. I streamed the film My Rembrandt on a platform called Kanopy, available through public libraries using one's library card #. An aside, I've been gazing at a Chagall picture of a loving couple--it is a sweet homage to the painting discussed in this video: the Jewish Bride of 1664. Thank you for reading and caring.
