I happen to have a bottle of wax medium and don't know what to do with it. I'm sure abstract paintings with this material would be so inspiring and mind refreshing. Thanks for your kindness to share this content with everybody.
This is so beautiful, Lisa. I love watching your process, especially your lack of fear using black/dark and your ability to blend colors on the piece as you go.
Jennifer, thank you so much!! It is hard to do- but if you dive in and paint fearlessly, it is amazing to see what you can create! Just play and enjoy the process!! Thanks for watching!!
Just bought these boards. This was so not messy. Oil Sticks look fun. Normally I use palette knife.. and thanks for these rubber 1/2 circles.. such a beautiful thinning layering process. Love 🎶🎶 too.
Thank you for your tutorials. I've enjoyed watching a few and have subscribed. I've also enjoyed the soundtracks. It would be great if you posted some info about each one of them, especially for this video.
Carole, thank you for watching! So glad you are enjoying the videos and the music! I use epidemic sound and they have so much music to choose from! I usually listen to several different selections and choose what seems to go with the painting in progress! I also always paint with music on in my studio!
Beautiful work....so epic!!!!! What is the largest board you painted on? I may start using cold wax and oils! Would water soluble oils work with the cold wax? Thank you for your time!!!!
Thank you!! I have painted up to a 60x60 panel with oil/cold wax medium. I love to paint larger!! Water soluble oils do work but I prefer traditional oil paints. I do not paint with the water soluble oils but I have some students who do. Have fun! Paint, paint, paint!!
Beautiful work, in fact I love all your videos. I do wonder where you can get the half circle device you use. I can’t find them. Thank you for posting all these lovely works of art.
Jane, thank you so much! I have an Amazon storefront where I list a lot of the products I use. You can go to my Amazon storefront and click the item and order from there. It is a silicone bowl scraper! www.Amazon.com/shop/Lisab.boardwine
Kathy, thanks!! Adding the cold wax makes the oil paint dry faster. Then it depends on the temperature and the humidity where you live. Also how thinly or thickly your layers are applied . But typically it dries in about 2-3 weeks. You do not have to varnish these oil and cold wax pieces but you can! You can use clear cold wax or GamVar/ a varnish from Gamblin.
Hi LIsa, Just discovered your YT channel. I have can of cold wax and unused oil paints, so will give this a try. What is drying time in between each layer? And do you seal painting with cold wax? Thank you Beautiful work.
Thank you for watching my channel!! I usually allow about 20-30 minutes between the first layer and the second..however if you have more time that is good too. There are some techniques that need to be done on a surface that is drier. So there is lots of play and experimentation here!! You can seal the painting -when finished -with a layer of clear cold wax if you want to -but you don’t have to varnish or seal it at all. The cold wax is throughout the painting already. These pieces are meant to have a matte finish but if you want a satin or glossy finish you can use GamVar. Hope this helps!!🎨
This is beautiful but I would love to have known your thought process as you painted. I am just starting w cw and never have done abstract paintings at all. So how to know when to do what and not end up w a mess is a huge concern for me
Thank you Teri! Working with oil and CWM is a lot about playing and just allowing yourself to explore what the medium will do! You do need to let some of the layers set up before adding another to avoid to much blending. Play and have fun!
Thanks so much Lynn!! I think most of the colors are listed on the bottom of the video as they are introduced throughout the painting. Thanks you very much for watching!
Amazing as always Lisa, extraordinary talent. I would like to understand please, why you need to let the paint dry before continuing? What would happen if you continue while still wet? Thank you for clarifying. 🙏
Thank you for your kind comment! This is oil and cold wax so the layers are very wet as I build them up, allowing them the have some “set-up” or drying time helps to not make muddy smears and areas. If I allow them to start drying or setting up the next layers go on more crisp and colorful! Hope this helps! Thanks again!
Thanks Nick! This was a video that demonstrated how I begin the layers of an oil and cold wax painting. I didn't do a part 2 to this one. The next video, however, is a Part 1 of 2 series: ua-cam.com/video/jfTY2DJgsaQ/v-deo.html Thanks for watching!!
This was great. Thanks

What a resourceful use of tissue paper blotters! I will incorporate it into my work. Many thanks, Lisa!!
Bob, glad you like this idea!! Paint on!!
Awesome

What did you write with at the very end?? Love that tool
Thank you!! I was using a bamboo skewer to scratch through to do the asemic writing.
@@LisaBBoardwine very cool! Thanks for sharing.

I wish you would relay your thoughts as you work. Also the amount of wax to oil. Beautiful work but no idea how to achieve!
Exquisite! Can you give us a list of the paint colors that you used for this work?
Thanks so much Lynn!! I think most of the colors are listed on the bottom of the video as they are introduced throughout the painting. Thanks you very much for watching!

Hello I love this. I'm confused, however, how to find part 2 of this video. I don't see how they are numbered. Thank You!

What are the crayon things you start with?
They are ArtGraf and Marabu Art crayons. Thanks for watching!!
Hi Lisa how do you add collage to cold wax and oils ?
Joanna, I did a UA-cam video on collage, I think it was # 51. Thanks so much! A new video coming soon on that subject too!!
Should've stopped a 2:26
Thanks for watching!
Is the earth orange mixed with cold wax?
Yes, all my oil paint colors are mixed with the cold wax on my palette. Thanks so much for watching!!
Where do you get your transparent Earth orange?
Transparent Earth Orange is a Gamblin color and I usually purchase it from Jerry’s Artarama or Dick Blick.
Bellissimo...peccato che non so la lingua, mi piacerebbe che ci fosse la traduzione....grazie
Ernestina, Grazie!! Thank you for watching! Much appreciated!!
Interesting… did you know you spelled abstract wrong?
All fixed! Thanks Jan!!
