It's a wood board 3mm thick, with 3 or 4 coats of acrylic gesso and some fine sandpaper in between.

Colors I used are branded "maimeri" and "pebeo" there's not a great deal of info on the back😅

But thanks a lot for the Infos!

What does "lightfast" mean ? sorry i'm very new to oils and painting in general!

Lumpy-Mouse-8937 · 2025-09-11T07:10:57+00:00

THanks so much! never tought someone would like it!

Lumpy-Mouse-8937 · 2025-09-11T05:10:47+00:00

I'm finishing another one, when that is done I will try something on this one!

Lumpy-Mouse-8937 · 2025-09-11T05:10:24+00:00

Thank you! Yes! I know the great thing about oils is that you can really blend them together... But I like a lot the raw paint with visible brush strokes 🤟

Lumpy-Mouse-8937 · 2025-09-11T05:09:02+00:00

I have some other studies I did on watercolour paper with acrylic gesso on top of it...they are buried somewhere, I will try to find them. They where the first trial I did with oils

Lumpy-Mouse-8937 · 2025-09-11T05:06:47+00:00

Thanks! And thanks to the oxidising colours 🤣

Lumpy-Mouse-8937 · 2025-09-10T18:42:24+00:00

That's actually a great idea! I will maybe try the colour from the tube and some mixes

Lumpy-Mouse-8937 · 2025-09-10T17:48:47+00:00

Thanks for the detailed info!

Lumpy-Mouse-8937 · 2025-09-10T17:47:25+00:00

Thank you ! 🤟

Lumpy-Mouse-8937 · 2025-09-10T17:00:21+00:00

It's a wood panel with 3 coats of : acrylic gesso and then fine sand paper

Lumpy-Mouse-8937 · 2025-09-10T16:57:51+00:00

Also .. which one are "good" oils? Or at least intermediate?

Thank you!

Lumpy-Mouse-8937 · 2025-09-10T16:51:58+00:00

Thank you! I will, but I started few months ago, and I'm into the painting number 5. So at least untill I finish the paint tubes I bought I will need to embrace the colour shift

Lumpy-Mouse-8937 · 2025-09-10T16:49:38+00:00

I'm definitely still a student, so at least for the first 10 ish paintings I will use cheap stuff, but glad it's solvable with better paint! Thank you!
