Thank you so much! 🥰

Thank you!!

I will be adding videos soon that demonstrate this process. When I painted this I was so immersed in the process and didn’t film. Thank you for your ❤️!

Hi and thank you for your question! I find that using the fine misting continuous spray bottle works well in dispersing the isolation coat evenly. Once it dries, touch it lightly in the darkest charcoal areas . If any transfers to your finger, spray again. You can just spray the spot that is not completely sealed too. I have used gloss gel medium to seal charcoal. I have another video demonstrating that process. It is titled; acrylic and charcoal, layering, how to seal the canvas. I prefer using the isolation coat. The reason for this is when sealing with gloss gel medium it requires an extra step. You need to use a spray fixative in several layers to set the charcoal before brushing on gloss gel medium. I have not used gloss gel medium in a spray bottle due to its thick consistency. The isolation coat product is much thinner and watery. I hope this helps! 🌸 best to you and your creation process! 😊

Thanks so much for your insight. I’ll have to try the isolation coat process for sure!!

You are a kind person! Thank you! 💞

I do understand your question as I also have a studio with large windows too. What I have found with this lamp is it is easy for me to limit the glare on my painting by adjusting the arms on this lamp and the light intensity. With each arm having 4 levels of light , I can turn the light down on one or the other arm or on both. I also have one window where the sun , being lower on the horizon, directly shines in during the fall to winter months. I tape tracing paper over that window which creates filtered light and that really helps. I have had this lamp for a few years now and use it every time I paint at my easel. I am still really happy with it. I hope this helps! And yes, my filming has a learning curve…lol. Thank you for your question! 😊

@@janetferraroartstudio4234 Thank you for your helpful answer! I'm considering purchasing this lamp, and your information is useful to my thinking process. :) And the tracing paper for filtered light is a great idea.

@shawneefleenor2182 i am so glad you found this helpful! Adding the tracing paper to the window really does create wonderful filtered light. Thank you for asking and I wish you the very best! 💕

@@JustMeHereWondering thank you so much!! 🥰

Thank you!! 😊

A very good question and yes you can with the Gamvar varnish.

@@janetferraroartstudio4234 Thank you so much! I have a little section needs to be fixed, but I don't want to remove the Gamvar on the whole painting.

Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching! 😊

Thank you! Cheers! 🌺💞

I know, it is amazing how easy it is and the acrylic gloss gel medium works perfectly, like a glue. Being a product meant for artwork, it is archival and won’t bleed through or yellow over time.. I am glad you enjoyed the video ! 😊

@@carolgivati7372 hi, I wait until it is no longer tacky and is dry to the touch. I hope this helps!

Go for it! I think you will enjoy the process. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to ask me. Thank you for watching! 💞

Thank you! Cheers! ❤️

You're welcome! I am glad it helped! 😊

Hi, thank you for your question. Each layer should have slightly more oil than the previous layer. This increases the ‘fat’ of each layer. Add the oil that you prefer using , such as linseed oil. You can then keep the alkyd amount the same in each layer or decrease it. I hope this helps. Happy painting! ❤️

This can work, yes. Depending on your needs, another great alternative is using clear gesso by Liquitex. Actually a gesso that drys completely clear. I have used this gesso over acrylic and then oiled it out and painted with oil paint over it. It works very well. I hope this helps!

@@janetferraroartstudio4234 Thanks so much!

@@CulturedGemyour welcome! 😊

Hi, thank you for your question. This painting was a commission of my clients three dogs. I love painting animals and these three dogs are very special. 💞 I am able to make a giclee print of this artwork for you. Just let me know. Thank you so much for your appreciation of my art! It means a lot to me! 🥰

@@puckettart5108 thank you! That’s a great idea, it would be a beautiful combination. 😊

Watercolor and charcoal are my favorite medias, so it sounds fun to combine them. Usually I've never had a whole lot of respect for mixed media, I guess because I've never seen the point, but this changes my mind.

@@puckettart5108that’s fantastic! I hope to see your painting !

@@janetferraroartstudio4234 thanks, I have my own UA-cam channel, I'll plan on posting it if it goes well.

Oh cool, I will check it out! 😊

You are welcome! I am glad you enjoyed it! 💖

I did not apply a varnish. Thank you for your question ! Since the canvas giclee is coated in an acrylic gel medium prior to enhancing with oil, you can use a varnish that is compatible with both acrylic and oil.

Thank you ! I am glad you enjoyed it ! 😊

Thank you! 😊

@@FlowWithMeTree thank you! 🥰

Hi, thank you for your question. The Krylon Matt Finish Spray is a non glossy spray that protects the finished painting. It seals the charcoal by coating the surface . It permanently protects the surface and is designed to be used on charcoal, pencil and painted surfaces. I hope this helps! I have another video on sealing charcoal to a canvas that you may enjoy watching too. I discovered another product that also works well is sealing charcoal and protecting the surface. I added this video to my channel several weeks ago. It is called, How To Seal Charcoal Drawing To Your Canvas. You may find this helpful. Thank you and I hope you find the product that works best for you! 😊

Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching today! 🥰

Hi, thank you for visiting my channel!

Thank you so much!, I really appreciate your support and good heart! ❤️

Wow, thank you! You are so kind! ❤️

I just tried the link from the description area below the video and it worked . Can you try the link again?

Hi, I am glad this video helped you! You can only use oil mediums over oils. Never use acrylic paint or mediums over oils. If you have any questions , please let me know! Happy painting!

@@janetferraroartstudio4234 Thank you, Janet. Do you know of any medium I can use over the oils to finish it?
