NEW PAINTING TOOL

I apologize for the bumpy video! just wanted to show the painting dam I knocked together this morning so I could pour the paint more easily....its so much easier to move the canvas around when its waist high. The table will accomodate canvasses up to 48" x 70".

Pouring isnt painting? Tell that to JACKSON POLLOCK, MORRIS LOUIS, HELEN FRANKENTHALER, SAM GILLIAM,LYNDA BENGLIS, KATHARINA GROSSE, and a whole multitude of 20th and 21st Century artists that I don't have time to list.

I am mixing acrylic mediums with the tempera; I dont use it by itself because it does crack if its put on in any thickness. If I want to keep the matte surface, I use a matte acrylic medium.

This is SO FUNNY Gilda. Just minutes before watching this video, I was thinking about going to Home Depot to buy dropcloths to put all over my living room. I am working on so much stuff, I am spilling out of my studio. I am going to cover all my furniture in my house so I have more art space. Seeing this covered table made me laugh. Can't wait to see this painting when it's done! :-)

I was working on it last night because I want to resolve it quickly, also, so I can start another the same size. While I was working there was some tapping at my window...when I went to investigate whoever was making the noise was gone. I went home....it gets creepy around there at night. First floor studio spaces can be dicey......there are lots of homeless around in the area. I didnt have to deal with this when I was on the third floor.

I'm just sorry that I had to stick the camera in that pile while I readjusted the canvas!

@Mauikite Shows how dumb you are. Only comment if you have a IQ above a gnat.

Exciting, innovative and creative.Thank you so much for showing us that we need not be rigid when we define and create art.

[Mauikite]

pouring is NOT painting!

[cynicaljones]

Gilda, I just love your videos. You need to build yourself a camera-hat so you can keep both hands free. ;-)
