I do watercolours. I recently did a couple of still lifes of a bottle of Irish whisky cream. They're called simply "Baileys" and "Baileys but a bit bigger"
The calcium chloride I see online is packaged up for salting your driveway or making cheese. My guess is you bought a few pounds of the deicing version? Or did you get the food-grade version? I'd love to see how this works...
Seeing that first wash on the piece got me stressed. Even painting something like an 8x10 you have to work quite quickly. Might have to grab myself some calcium chloride. I'm curious, have you tested if there are any effects on the archival qualities of the paint and paper after mixing in calcium chloride?
Theoretically, because it is salt, it might react with some metal pigment paints although we did not notice any color changes. To say how it affects paints and paper in the long run, we have to wait for some time
@@DrawingArtAcademy I hadn't considered metal pigment paints. Im going to run some light fastness tests myself once I get ahold of the calcium chloride. Thanks for the reply.
I would not use calcium chloride in my paintings. Because it is such a hygroscopic compound, any time you get slightly more humid conditions in your room, your finished painting will just suck in way more water than usual. I can't imagine how that could be good for the painting. Surely there must be better alternatives? Maybe something like using slow-drying solvents such as butanol, dimethylformamide ...? Did anyone try that?
Just WONDERFUL ! The paintings realistic , but look better than photographs because of the artistic touch !

What about the acidity of this chemical? Any reaction on the paper's resistance to yellowing, or lightfastness, of colors?
This yet to be tested by time. I'm not advocating this method, but describe my experiments
How do you keep such clean palletes
Have you tried to wash yours palettes? Go for white porcelain.
@@DrawingArtAcademy during a painting.nope. i use plastic ones . During a painting yours is so clean on every application

Test it. I'm not saying this is the best solution, but it might be something in it

just wondering if I can use sea salt instead cause I don't know where to get calcium chloride in Egypt
You can try
