Description

Join us for the October 25 Cohorts Meeting on Painting Best Practices as we explore how traditional materials—additives, egg yolk, and animal glue—affect the performance and longevity of paintings.

We’ll review three key articles:

Oil Paint Additives and Fillers: Humidity Risks and Safer Choices — Learn how stearates, waxes, and fillers interact with moisture and how to prevent water-sensitivity and cracking.

Egg Yolk Oil Paint: What the 2023 Ranquet Study Means for Your Painting — Discover practical methods for using egg yolk in oil paint and in lower layers of an oil painting to enhance texture and brushwork.

Animal Glue for Artists: Properties, Techniques, and Best Practices — Understand glue selection, gel strength, and moisture control for sizing, gesso, and consolidation.
