    Lewis Noble has lived and worked in Derbyshire since 1996. His focus lies in the physical and emotional impact of the landscape on the senses and the effect this experience has on us.
    His paintings are not snapshots or photographic frozen moments but through repeated layering and eroding of the painted surface, they contain all of the time it takes to make them.
    The result is a body of work that speaks to the heart of what it means to be part of the environment.

    Super Collagist here, 50 years and counting. The downside of PVA is that it yellows over time. Upside of acrylic mediums is that the collage bits integrate seamlessly with paint layers above and below. Crayon or pencil marks can be gone over with gel or matte medium to keep them intact. When cost is a consideration, PVA can be used in preparatory layers and acrylic medium when close to finishing. I decant a quantity of acrylic medium into a small jar for occasional use and keep the larger container sealed. If properly cared for, will last for years.

      I’ve not had problems with yellowing in pieces 30 years old. As I said I’m not really recommending one over the other, it all sticks! Always good to use what you’re comfortable with.

      Acid free pva shouldn’t yellow

    Really interesting video Lewis, thank you. I see so many artists on UA-cam using very expensive brands of gel medium and squeezing it on liberally. There seems to be a misconception that because it is "gel" it somehow makes the paper flatter and less likely to buckle. I definitely couldn't afford to use the gel medium type products in anywhere near those sorts of volumes but it's very easy to be fooled into thinking that PVA isn't somehow a "fine art" product. This video was very helpful to set aside some of those concerns. Thanks a lot.

    • @LewisNobleArtist
      @LewisNobleArtist  8 місяців тому +1

      Thanks for watching. Paper flattening is so easy. I’ll do a video on it. You certainly shouldn’t go out of your way to way to use an expensive medium to avoid it. Thanks for watching.

    Have you tried "Yes"paste... stays flexible but a little pricey. Nice to work with though.

    Just curious: how does acrylic paint behave on top of your favorite PVA glue?

    Thanks Lewis, I’ve wondered about the different glues on offer and which to buy. It’s interesting you say after research you found PVA is generally PH neutral, so no need to worry about that. I would definitely buy the big tub as it does the job at the best price.

    • @LewisNobleArtist

    I like the science experiment attitude and find this video very helpful. Thank you! Any suggestions for oil surfaces and attaching?

    • @LewisNobleArtist
      @LewisNobleArtist  8 місяців тому

      Not sure how scientific it was! Oil medium probably best for oil paintings, water based glues won’t be permanent enough for that.

      Washable is no good. It’s not permanent glue.

    I have always wondered what size A2 paper was and what was a similar product in the US. Thank you for all these videos. I am a viewer since 2020.

    • @LewisNobleArtist
      @LewisNobleArtist  8 місяців тому

      A2 is 16.5x23.4 in. Starting with A0, each A size is half the size of the preceding one. A1 is half A0, A2 is half A1 and so on.

    Very interesting, thank you 👍 I haven't been happy with the PVA I've used in the past but it was a very cheap one, probably washable as it was a kids' crafts brand. I normally use Galeria Matt or Gloss medium, the latter gives a nice translucency to the very thin papers I use for collage. I'll definitely try the waterproof PVA for the opaque papers though. I'd definitely be interested in a video about different papers.

    • @LewisNobleArtist
      @LewisNobleArtist  8 місяців тому +1

      It’s all good, comes down to personal preference mostly.

  • @maggieparnell2853
    @maggieparnell2853 8 місяців тому +1

    Acrylic medium is multipurpose. The reason mediums work with mixing in your paint is the same reason it’s an excellent glue. It loaded with the chemical elements that hold together acrylic paint and makes it stick to the painted surface. Plus you have a choice of viscosity ( liquid or heavy paste, gel) AND a choice of matte, satin or glossy finish.

    • @LewisNobleArtist
      @LewisNobleArtist  8 місяців тому +1

      Sure. I have only my preference. I’m not recommending one over the other.

    • @LewisNobleArtist
      @LewisNobleArtist  8 місяців тому

      Elmer’s is a brand with different products I think. As I said, they all stick no problem, just good to know the properties of things you work with. Thanks for watching!

    • @dalevoelkerfineart
      @dalevoelkerfineart 8 місяців тому

      The "Glue-All" is different than their regular "school glue" and is PVA based.

    Do they use the painting medium because it's archival?

    • @LewisNobleArtist
      @LewisNobleArtist  8 місяців тому +1

      Maybe but I have 30yr paintings that are as fresh as the day I made them. Up to a point I don’t think we should worry about it.

    I'm pretty sure I watched this and will watch it again, but what I'd REALLY REALLY APPRECIATE is a video done about DRYING times .... I mean OIL and ACRYLIC and GELS and GLUES all have different properties....HOW long to wait until OTHER stuff can be laid on....MONTHS before shipping? ALL the detail, please.....LOL! THANK YOU in advance.....and please address YELLOWING of mediums?
