A quick talk about my wooden palettes. The larger palette is a New Wave Expressionist palette. Don't forget to visit my websites, paintingstuffto... and www.katestonear...
Oil soaked rags are perfectly safe from combustion as long as you DO NOT leave them balled up. Spread out the rag/paper towel and drape it over the edge of your trash can until the oil dries, doing so will basically eliminate the chance of the rag spontaneously combusting. Also keep the rag away from open flames or intense heat.
For the new wave palette? Do you suggest continuing to rub oil on the service even after painting it with the grey-brown paint and alkyd and the paint dries?
Thank you for the great video! I'm treating my palette using the old fashioned linseed oil method like you did with your first one. What kind of paint did you use when you toned the surface first, oil paint?
I am wanting to get a new wave wooden palette and also stain it to a neutral brown. Did you just rub the paint in and let it dry or paint a whole coat to layer over top? Sorry, I'm new to dealing with wood and oils. Thanks so much Kate :)
Awesome video )))) .. .. as more comments are very concerned about combustion - you just it close to fire station. And you will have a big chance to became great artist.

thank you!!!! I don't know why it's been so hard to find a video on how to condition a wooden pallet !!
Cool. I just bought a wooden palette that has been frustrating to use - for the very reasons you mentioned. Thanks for the video!
I’m bummed only 3 videos 😞 I get it the world doesn’t revolve around me, these are good videos though
What type of paint/toner was used before applying linseed oil?
How about teak oil and used for acrylic, thanks!

Just use RUSTOLEUM spray colour__ 2 coats dry in less than an hour and pick your colour. You can also use it instead of gesso
What type of wooden is this? Like i want to make my own shape so what it is called..?
Thanks really detailed but to the point too perfect!

I keep a empty paint can($5 or less at hardware store) half full of water for tossing oil soaked rags, keep lid sealed.
Can I use mineral oil (like baby oil) to condition my palette?
I am dismayed that Ms. stone has never replied to any of the questions asked here.
Have you tried using water color gouache on this??
What kind of wood is your palette made of? Plywood?
Awesome video )))) ..

does it have to be linseed oil ? i dont have it and i cant go buy it since i dont know where to get it and im 13 so yeah..
SoraChiiy You can get linseed oil at an art supply shop, in the painting section. But any oil can work. Linseed just dries the quickest.
David Canady umm no but okay.
Process is similar to seasoning a pot or pan
Which is why I use plastic
what are you doing papa
