Ah okay, if it helps one live as an artist it's fine.
Recently got myself tangled up in an art market with my plein air paintings. One thing I quickly learned is that people don't really look at your work as you do, they just want to see things they recognise and hear stories about the painting.

Hey anons some of my Liquitex and Daler Rowney acrylic ink jar caps have a weird "bounce" when I twist them and they come loose even if turning them in the tightening direction.

What are the thread sizes of Liquitex and daler rowney acrylic ink jars so I can get replacements off amazon or aliexpres?

Speaking of aliexpress what brushes do you buy from there that actually are good? I'm looking for round tip brushes and line rigger brushes.

dealers are able to increase an artists selling price over time though. exhibitions provide fame, prestige and exposure to wealthy art collectors - none of whom are browsing ebay

/beg/ here, normally I only post alcohol marker + colored pencil weeb art in /beg/, but yesterday I was possessed by the idea to make red ochre pigment like the cave painters of old and make my silly little anime art with it, maybe on wooden blocks.
Today I found some nice rocks, and spent a whole two hours grinding just one of them down to this amount. What's next? I tried applying more beige powder to a wooden block with just water and a brush yesterday, it changed the color a little bit but was very flakey. I have an order of gum arabic coming in a few days, anything else I need? I heard I might need gesso too?

im posting from nz. art markets still exist in countries without jews.
>>
>nz
>without jews
>>
>>7995626
what kind of paint/marker are you trying to make? pigment needs a binder, which one you use determines the product
gum arabic = watercolour
egg = tempera
casein = casein
oil = oil
wax = crayon / coloured pencil
gum taragacanth = soft pastel
if you want the natural colour of the wood to show through priming it with clear gesso / gac 100 / pva will work for most of these. not sure about water colour though
>>
>>7995626
The finer the grind, the better the color. you also want to levitate the pigment if you haven't already. You technically only need gum arabic and water as far as ingredients go, some people add clove oil to stave off fungus. You almost certainly want to add honey, glycerin or other humectant because earth pigments dry into clay and will be a bitch to rewet otherwise. I'm fairly sure you could apply the paint directly to wood if you don't dilute it too much, it should be very opaque and stick well, gesso is more for washes and to get a lighter ground. You can also skip the gum arabic and paint using egg yolk for wood or whites for paper, then you'd want gesso for wood
>>
>>7995638
>levitate
*levigate
>>
>>7995626
Oil and Egg tempera is suited for painting on wood. Gesso is recommended but not necessary.

Thanks for all the helpful replies, sorry for the wall of text
>>7995636
>what kind of paint/marker are you trying to make?
I'm /beg/ and am unfamiliar with most of these. I went with gum arabic since I have been curious about watercolor already (I have a set of watercolor pencils I've been meaning to practice with), but do they still work on a wooden surface as opposed to paper? The idea of making pastels or even pencils does appeal to me a lot, I already do a lot with colored pencils.
What I'm hoping to do here is still a bit hazy and open to change, but basically I'm hoping to make something primarily black (Ohuhu fineliner for now, homemade black pigment in the future?) and 'white' (uncolored wood), plus some splashes of red ochre color, going for a minimal color scheme. I'm hoping for the result to feel prehistoric (matching the prehistoric theme of the art), so if it looks like a cave painting, that's what I'm going for.
>>7995638
Right now it's a powder in a jar on my shelf, along with the rocks I haven't processed yet. I'll levigate them tomorrow.
Sorry if I misread, but are you suggesting I store it in liquid form + clove oil and honey to keep it from drying? My thought was that if I picked gum arabic, the red ochre would be stored in powder form, then I'd take the amount I need for a given project and mix it with the water + gum arabic at that time.
>>7995644
I was considering egg tempera but was concerned that the egg yolk paint would smell after a while, especially since I live in a very humid place. Is that wrong?
My fantasy is that I could refine these and sell them at like Comiket someday, so I wouldn't want it to smell.

No, you're thinking of tempera (egg yolk/white), gum arabic and pigment is literally watercolor, it's infinitely rewetable, there's absolutely no reason not to store finished paint, you just need a humectant if you want to dry it because earth pigments are stupidly thirsty and you'd basically be mulling the paint again if you reconstitute a pure gum arabic ochre. You'll also need to seriously mull it to make paint in the first place, it's not something you want to do while painting
>>
>>7995574
ncie to know i thought it was a paint thinner mostly which also happened to dry quick, though im sure it´s somewhat of one too
>>
>>7995666
my bad. i almost forgot jews are always secretly pulling the strings.
do you think the jews at these wef conferences, which some of our politicians have occasionally attended, really care about the nz art market? if they do, what have they done to it? dealer galleries are privately owned businesses, they dont rely on government funding.

I think literally every wood panel painting and probably 90% of manuscripts until like late 1300s were made with yolks or whites as binder (tempera/glaire). Orthodox icons are still painted with egg tempera on wood and hang in every home.

speaking of ochre, I was watching some youtube video about rock formations and soil shifting on mars and the entire time I just kept thinking "fuck, that's a lot of pigment"

Yeah. I know hat the anime industry used gouache and poster colors. I thought tempera was more of a medieval era enthusiasts medium. It always looks lifeless compared to oil anyway

but seriously, this is one of the most ideologically captured places on the planet dude
>>
>>7995695
I see. I think I might try both egg tempera and gum arabic then, see which one feels right on the wood. Not that I'm going for 100% historical reproduction here but they both seem authentic to the time period I'm interested in.
>>7995698
>>7995703
I wasn't considering selling the paint, but that wouldn't be a bad idea. It depends on which convention, but at Comiket you can find all sorts of enthusiasts selling all manner of things, including a lot of crafts, so it wouldn't be out of the norm.
In which case it would be the homemade watercolors, of course.
I don't know if they would let me sell rocks I found and just ground up though, a bit more processing might be necessary.

>>7995708
Idiotic statement, egg tempera is factually more lightfast than oil, you've probably seen plenty of tempera paintings you assumed were oils, no shit monks and medieval artists weren't as good as post-renaissance masters. The hatching capacity alone makes egg tempera amazing.

As long as you don’t admire thet degerate, Andrew Wyeth. Tacky, castelrss painter.
>>7995717
I am also a pigment fiend. Excited to be experimenting with Paris green at some point.
>>
>>7995721
it’s more lightfast historically but they are probably pretty even now
we underestimate how trash and poorly regulated pigments were historically.
i highly doubt oils from old holland or blockx are less lightfast than same pigments with egg tempera
>>
>>7995729
Lightfastness has more to do with the pigment than the medium. Vermillion never fades, but it can darken in watercolor, but the oil prevents it from interacting with atmospheric gases any more than is necessary for the oil to cure. Rhetorical downside of oil is that it becomes progressively more brittle over time
>>
>>7995730
*the only
I detest autodorrect
>>
>>7995729
>poppy
Gross, dude
>>7995730
Wrong, it has a lot to do with the medium because it changes the amount radiation the pigment is exposed to, that's why opaque mediums fade more, the pigment is naked
>>
>>7995736
you’re gonna be naked
>>
>>7995730
vermillion absolutely does darken in in oil
>>
>>7995729
>they are probably pretty even now
The biggest factor is titanium being the major white pigment instead of lead. Yeah, modern paintings may crumble way sooner than in the old days. But who cares.
>>
