I recently took down my other UA-cam channel - Keith Minnion Woodshop - for lack of both content ideas and public interest - but I liked this particular video so much I decided to repost it here. I'm interested to know what my Keith Minnion Studio subscribers think about this kind of content.

A little personal watercolor history, both early and recent work, and why I probably got a failing grade in a watercolor studio class I took during college!

EP 5 Stories

A brand new short story collection of all new stories of mine has just dropped, five stories in this case, so it goes under the title of EP, or 'extended play" like those five-song EPs on vinyl that used to come out in the good old days. This slim little vlume is available in trade paperback or e-book formats on Amazon - link is below. www.amazon.com/EP-5-Stories-Keith-Minnion-ebook/dp/B0DQKQTB4N
Varnishing an Oil Painting

After a few years waiting for an oil painting I did in 2020 to change its state from viscous liquid to solid, it's time to give it its first varnishing.

❤️🔨😂
Your painting shows how deep you are in your thoughts 🥰 I really appreciate your work it's 😊
Carpet tacks. I buy them at Lowe’s.
What type of tacks are these? And where to find them?
Beautiful painting! Capture such a melancholic mood with just color and light alone
gosh I love your work <3
This was an amazing tip for painting, I hope this doesn't get misinterpreted
Great video. Do you have any thoughts or opinions about painting with acrylic paint? The reason I ask is because I'm currently thinking that it's the most similar behaving paint to egg tempera.
Nearly all of the painting techniques between egg tempera and acrylic polymer are the same, except you can scrape off a mistake in egg tempera, which you can't do with the dried plastic film of acrylic. But acrylic is cheaper, quicker, easier, and you can use canvas to paint on. The only acrylic polymer paintings I ever did after high school was in illustration work, though. For easel paintings headed to gallery showings I paint in either egg tempera, watercolor, or in oil.
@@keithminnionstudioart Thanks! I bet working with acrylic will be good practice to gain skills that can be transferred to egg tempera painting. I bet galleries like egg tempera paintings more than acrylic.
Beautiful
I missed what part was the "not"! 🙂
Hah! I’m just anticipating the critiques!
Excellent instruction
WILLIAM BAILEY, my older than old teacher at grad school at Indiana drew me, eggs, girl portraits, mainly EGGS. Know his work....decades later he is still painting.....eggs.
Восхитительно!
I always used acrylic gesso but lately I started to prepare my own traditional gesso, and I now size my canvases (i glue the canvas onto mdf panel because i like the canvas texture but also the rigidity of a panel) with rabbit skin glue. I'm an oil painter but i want to learn tempera painting, and in tempera painting one must - or should - use traditional gesso anyway
Tempera painting requires a rigid ground, and the best gesso for it is homemade from melted rabbitskin glue mixed with marble dust and/or chalk. For oil painting on canvas I use W&N's Oil Painting Primer right out of the can, though it can be thinned with linseed oil, sparingly. Thanks for your comments!
Delicious flight. Congratulations.
Thanks!
Enjoyed watching this!
Beautiful. I work in egg tempera and a far as i know very few of us display our work under glass. Your rocks rock!
I love egg tempera.. that is a beautiful painting. Thank you for sharing.. I dabble in this medium and I have one of the books I bought when I purchased my pigments. I also sometimes use an egg emulsion with my watercolours for interesting effects for fun . Important to not dip into pans with egg wash.
Thank you. I have also mixed tube watercolors with egg yolk for interesting glazing effects.
Nice , I like the warms over the cool underpainting
Excellent drawing and expressions
Wow
Lovely painting. ^_^ And it seems like the supplies don't get old, like acrylics hardening in a tube! Now, I have several questions: * You do not use vinegar in your paint mixture? * Do egg tempera paintings ever develop mold over time? What environment should they be stored in? * How long does the paint mixture last? * Does the work get sealed after completion? * I imagine a mask is needed when handling the unmixed, powdery gesso components? * I am a vegetarian. I do not mind using unfertilized eggs, but hide/rabbit skin glue is completely off-putting. Do you know of a viable substitute that doesn't involve a blood sacrifice? >_< I have seen Mr Vickrey's work at Tree's Place gallery in Orleans, Massachusetts on Cape Cod. Though I remember few of the works I have seen there, I remember his well. They were always gorgeous standouts. Thank you and stay creative!
Vinegarr? No. Just distilled water, ground pigments, and fresh egg yolk. The freshly mixed paints don't keep. You should plan on only preparing enough paint for a single painting session. I have seen some egg tempera paintings in museums (one at the Whitney in NYC, a subway scene by George Tooker comes to mind) that showed mold bloom, but that was probably because the Tooker didn't use distilled water, or his tools were dirty. Properly painted and conserved, egg tempera paintings can last for hundreds of years mold-free. I always frame my paintings behind glass, since air pollution can affect the paint surface. If you meant some kind of varnish, no. Never varnish an egg tempera painting. A mask is optional, if you handle the pigments and marble dust/chalk with care. As for the hide glue binder for the gesso, I do not know of any other kind of glue for this purpose. Feel free to experiment! Thanks for the comment and the questions!
What a lovely video and atmospheric painting. I’ve also got all the pigments in my cupboard so you have put me in the mood to start another egg tempera painting. It’s such a lovely medium to work with but the gesso prep is what always puts me off.
Thanks for commenting. I hear you about the gessoing. If you do it in a series of thinned coats, there will be less sanding/rubbing at the end to get it smooth.
Nice one. I especially liked the rockinh chair part... That was a long time ago me trying out egg tempera.
Wow. Just an astonishing painting
peaceful and artful
I tend to do almost every thing highly interestingly different.
So many we uestjons
Q. Sash pulls ?
Why marble dust (too textured) ?
The wet-sanded surface is perfectly smooth and receptive of paint. Also Ceninni-recommended!
May I have some unused or unwanted art supply ?
Don’t know if you remember but we’ve talk a couple time on some chat somewhere. I made my own slipcase for the 3 volumes and used the Eye on the face. You spotted it in a picture and asked me about it.
#44 for me when you start again
…and all your fiction and complete collection of White Noise
Nice work Keith. I also have a lot of nice work from you on my shelves.
great video! im a 30 year old artist revisiting egg tempera after learning the process in college as well
Best of luck with it!
You're still my favorite artist (which is why I have a copy of your work on my arm). Nice job with this video. - JPA
Thanks John!
What an incredible library! It continues to impress!
Thanks!
So happy that the bookshelf has been restored and has a proper and brand new life! Masterfully done!
What a great collection! Glad they’re being kept safe. And you did a superb job on the bookshelf!
That was great.
Thanks!
Those are really cool birthday cards. It sounds like they’re going to some really cool grandkids!
They are!
A unique gift from a unique granddad. Thank you for the info about your process.
My brother and I considered a similar project, based on my young son’s medical challenges. Russ (Goodlin), now retired, was at that time a freelance illustrator. Life got in the way, and we never completed it, but I think of that project often.
Thank you for this tour of magazine illustration. I enjoy learning about things like this, and of course, it’s always a pleasure to see your artwork.
Glad you enjoyed it!
As a youngling, I had an illustrated copy of Otto Silver Hand, with illustrations by Howard Pyle. I was captivated.
Pyle was a master, and he taught his students well!
Well done. These are very evocative.
This is great! Love your take on the story, you decisions on what to illustrate!
Adult books have never offered much in the way of illustration. E-books would seems to narrow that field even further. I’m glad you’ve had the opportunity to contribute in a fairly narrow arena. I’ve always liked pencil drawings, and yours are very good. I was especially affected by the crucifixion pieces from “Graven Image”.
