Monoprinting with an oil stick or oilbar
Decided to update one of my very first demos.
I first made this demo using Winsor & Newton oil bars about 2 years ago, I always thought it could be improved and wanted to return to this method as I think it has lots of potential, It's also much easier to handle the paint when it's in a solid form and is a good way to ensure you apply just a very thin layer of paint for the process to work. The Winsor & Newton oilbars are VERY expensive and its not easy to find stockists because I think they are being discontinued, you can still get them on Ebay. For this new demo I am using a Sennelier oil stick which is excellent and will feature in future videos, I will try the oil sticks on canvas on a large scale painting. Hope you enjoy this quick video filmed in real time with just a few edits.
Details to follow.
