Grateful to see a collage technique that doesn't coat both surface and paper, and only light layer over. HUGE fan of furnishing
Im glad you liked it, hopefully I have more good tips for you if you're a subscriber!
Great tips! Thanks. When working with a canvas, i like using foam board underneath. I stacked them up and i do not have to move the book underneath… since they are of a good size and they are pretty cheap.
sooooooo, i just started painting today. can you please give me some tips ?
Thank you so much. SHORT, SWEET, TO THE POINT. Great Video all around. Even your voice is lovely :)
thank you so much!
Brilliant process tip I've taken onboard for my large, abstracted collage pieces on canvas!
great, Im happy to hear that
Thanks this was really helpful, and also live the tip to put brushes into water before using the medium. Your work is gorgeous and these videos are great 👍🏻thanks for sharing 🤗
Im so happy that you're enjoying my creative tips!
Clever idea, the book!!
from my experience doing collage on canvas does not work on long term.The canvas expends contracts and pieces you glued on will start peeling off or wrinkle or both.I prefer on Masonite board.
Intrusting I used a cardboard box and it shrunk lol
that's a great idea! did it worked?
What a clever idea thank you for sharing Kathy🌹
Are you using a gel medium from Utrecht? And also what finish do you prefer and why?
Great video. Thank you. I’m looking for information on how to adhere newspaper to a canvas board in order to paint a still life oil painting on top. Do you know what to use so that the newspaper won’t yellow?
Very useful tips, thank you
glad it was useful! Tell me what things you like to learn about! I like to answer questions that my audience have
Thank you! So clear and practical.
Love your accent
Thank You! I enjoyed this process. I am wondering if you would use the same process for dried plant material (flowers leaves etc,) especially laying a sheet of paper on top and useing a tool to adheard and remove the bubbles?
Thank you for subscribing! I recommend that you use gel medium which is heavier than matte medium. You may need to put wax paper on top and then weigh it down with some books for a while until it adheres. Good luck!
@@TheArtProcesswithKathyLeader Thank you sooo much
Great idea. Thanks for sharing
Very useful
Can I use Logan deli paper? It’s waved on one side
Thank you very much!
Great video, thank you!
pleasure! glad you liked it
Matte or gloss medium Kathy? I’m not very experienced so I defer to your knowledge. If you use matte won’t it slightly dull the piece? I usually only use matte medium for a layer over the finished piece.
I use matte because some of the gloss comes onto the surface and I personally don’t like it but gloss would work
Thanks Kathy.
I like to use Satin medium
Thanks so much for the tip, Kathy! What medium did you use? Also how do you prevent the paper from warping the way wet paper does?
I use Utrecht matte medium.
Hi do you prep the paper collage first with a sealant at all? Thanks.
you dont have to. But good to afterwards. If the paper is stiff, sometimes dampening it with a little water helps it flatten. But only seal when dry. Hope this helps
Hi! I have a question- do you think you could in theory paint the canvas in between layers of doing this and collating with newspaper or magazine clippings perhaps. Maybe with markers? What kind of canvas is that and would it work on another canvas? Over a coat of paint?
Hi! Honestly one has to just try it out. You have to make sure whatever you are collaging with is stuck down really well and let it dry before adding any paint. I did this on pre gessoed canvas. Good luck!
Hey what glue and the coating was used in the video??
Matte medium is great for this
Thank you so much yes that’s really really helpful and useful too.
glad you found it helpful!
Howzit doll. Nice video!
Howzit back!!!
Is it okay to do this over a dried oil painting?
I have not tried that. So I can't truthfully answer that. Sorry
What medium are we using here? Can't make out the label. Is it Yes Paste?
I use utrecht matte medium. It has a thickness that I like. (available from Blick) You can use gel medium too
I tried using spray adhesive and the paper peeled right up. So does this mixing medium make the paper wet and rippled?
I have found the matte or gel medium best for this. It is a challenge, so you have to be sure to have a hard surface supporting it as you smooth it down. I hope this helps. spray adhesive definitely doesn't work.
Sound goes off under the two minute time stamp...????
I'm trying to find the best glue for various Japanese printmaking papers...Washi, rice paper...very thin. Do the gel mediums stain through semi transparent papers, looking like a grease blob or do they dry to invisible with no effect? I have thicker cotton rag papers & have many times used matte medium, soft gels etc. with no issue but I'm afraid I'll ruin my more delicately printed ones or that over time they may discolor if not every part of the surface has ink or paint on it. Thank you!
I have not tried it with delicate papers. I would try a sample first and probably not use gel but rather a regular matte medium. Good luck and let me know
@@TheArtProcesswithKathyLeader Thank you for the reply!
Is the Elmers glue which is a PVA glue safe for artworks that you wish to conserve and will it yellow the paper?
Hi! I personally have not used it so i cannot say for sure that it is non yellowing. Maybe google???
@@TheArtProcesswithKathyLeader thanks f9r the response
@@TheArtProcesswithKathyLeader thanks not much info and sometimes contrarian statements made
But thanks for your advice
@@TheArtProcesswithKathyLeader Thanks. for the infomation wheat paste might be a suitable archival and more affordable glue.
@@romelmadrayart great idea!
Is white glue acceptable to stick it down with?
Better to use matte medium if you can. If not you may need to water down the glue a little
So medium works as an adhesive? Whodathunk
a good gel medium or thick matte medium (by utrecht)does yes!
What is the name of the medium. Utrecht something? I can’t understand your accent very well. Sorry.
Its actually made by Blick(used to be called Utrecht) Im not sure what the current name of the brand is. Matte medium.
