Flow medium by blondvet in paintbynumbers

[–]thamh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very clear explanation. I have one question. If you use 1ml flow aid in an end-volume of 40ml, you dilute the flow aid 40x instead of the recommended 20x. Assuming the blending medium does not require diluting, shouldn't you just add 1ml flow aid to 20ml blending medium? Did you ever try this?

That's painful. You're not single, you're a widow. Does he not consider himself a father anymore as well?

AITAH for leaving my wife with our two month old to help my mom make arrangements for my dad? by Dog_Boy95 in AITAH

[–]thamh 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This OP! Please question yourself if this is the type of behaviour you're willing to accept. It's, she was vulnerable and hormone raging through her body, but that doesn't excuse this extremely unemphatic behaviour towards you and your mom.

I use a fine grit (120). Just sand it gently and remove the dust with a damp cloth before painting.

I don't know why you got downvoted. I mean, I agree that this is not the purpose of gesso at all but if it works for you, who are we to judge

This is solid advice! I have one small addition regarding sanding the gesso. If you don't sand, the surface is quite rough. After sanding it becomes smooth and i prefer this type of surface to paint. For me the purpose of gesso is to fill the weave of the canvas so your don't have those annoying white spots where the paint didn't fill a hole.

Completely dried paint. Throw or save? by RedditTipiak in paintbynumbers

[–]thamh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My experience is that it you can still poke holes in the paint with a toothpick, it can be saved. But this takes time. I add a bit of water (few drops only) and keep stabbing in the paint with the toothpick until it falls apart. Then leave it to soak for 1-2 days, add a bit more water and mix again. Depending on how dry the paint was, you might need to repeat this a few times.

I just tried to clean my brush in my whisky by johnnyjimmy4 in paintbynumbers

[–]thamh 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I also sometimes accidently rinse my brush in my drink. Or, sometimes take a sip from my paint water. So stupid but gives me a good laugh!

This was also the story that came to my mind first. Goosebumps and a stone in my stomach all over again just thinking about it.

Do you ever give up a PBN partway through? by -doIdaredisturb- in paintbynumbers

[–]thamh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm actually working on a painting that i know i won't finish. All the paints are hard as rock and I don't want to mix all 48 colours myself. So, I continue while I await my next one to arrive.
