Cohorts Live: Oil Over Acrylic, Solvents, Cracking & Varnish—Evidence-Based Best Practices

September 27, 2025 at 11:00 am (Pacific Time (US and Canada))
Meeting ID
81002691282
Description
Join George O’Hanlon for a focused, practical review of recent Painting Best Practices articles—what the science says about making oil over acrylic reliable (adhesion, grounds, zinc), how moisture and supports drive oil paint cracking (and how to prevent it), safe varnish removal workflows (testing, gels vs. solvents, isolation coats), and what turpentine/mineral spirits actually do in underpainting and layers (swelling, diffusion, leaching, evaporation) so you can avoid sinking-in and preserve film strength. Expect concise guidance, checklists you can use immediately, and an extended Q&A. Ideal for painters, educators, and conservators who want clear, evidence-based steps—no myths, just methods that keep films sound and colors true. Bring your questions and real-world cases.
