Points On Different Types Of Paints For Home Interiors
The type of paint that you choose for the interior of your home is usually an important decision. Know that the color that you choose will play a major role in determining your home’s worth. Recently there was a home which goods sold for approximately 1.4 million and what set it apart from other homes which were also up for sale was the colors which why used in painting the house. When it comes to San Francisco this is a city that is known for having incredible homes, the interesting thing the worth of your home is mainly determined by the paint that you choose for your interior. Below are some common types of paint for the interior of your home.
Matte is the most common type of interior paints, and it does not provide a sheen, and that is what makes it the best to use in your home if you don’t want to distract the other elements of the room. Although it can take more than one coat to get the desired effect, it is usually easy to apply with a brush or roller. It is usually perfect for old houses though it does need regular maintenance. You will have to retouch a matte paint her regularly because it is easy to mock up. The best thing about meat is that it is quite affordable and easy-to-apply.
When it comes to glass it is another popular paint that you will find used in most homes. It usually gives off a high shine so you might consider using it on wood finishes instead of the walls inside of your home. When painting the walls of your home using the gloss paint you have to ensure that there is no imperfection because these paint shows any imperfection on the wall clearly that is why people are usually encouraged to use more than two coats so that it can look perfect on your wall. Gloss takes longer to dry and you will probably need to set aside a weekend to get the job done right. Despite its imperfections if done correctly this type of paint can add a dramatic effect to your home. If you are looking for a finish that is somewhere between matte and gloss then satin is what you need. However if you was have imperfections you should stay away from it because it will make the issue standout.


The Ethical Hacking
Painting is an art to perfect your artistic skills. If you do not follow the right procedure, the overall result can be ugly. A well-painted surface is welcoming and depicts a serious environment compared to a poorly painted surface. How then do you ensure you have a good paint? Here are some of the paint hacks to follow. These hacks are drawn from experts who provide practical advice using locally available materials.
Smoothen The Painting Brush by Dipping It In Vinegar
You can renew an old brush by smoothening the brushes. One great way to achieve this fully immerses the brush in vinegar. It straightens the sticks and gives then a smooth texture ideal for painting.
Use Tape and Paint Guard for Areas You Do Not Want to Paint
You may want to paint specific areas, or even make a pattern by painting different colors. Use a tape to cover the parts you do not want the paint to smear. The tape also helps to straighten the lines.
Use Fingernails to Move Latex Paint
Once latex paint had dried even on wooden surfaces, use your fingernails to scratch them off the surface.
Use a Paint Edger for Corners
Smear paint on the edge to paint corners and tight areas like behind the cupboards and furniture.
Use a Paintbrush Comb to Clean Brushes
A paintbrush comb costs averagely $4, it removes all the stubborn stains between brisk and leaves the paintbrush clean and new.
Paint Holes by Drilling
Holes can be difficult to clean, hammer a nail to widen the hole such that the depression is easy to fill paint on it.
Scrub the Walls to Remove Dirt Before Painting
To avoid depressions and rough surface after painting, scoffer the wall surface using sandpaper to level the wall before you start painting
Use Aluminum Foil or Plastic Paper Bag on Paint Tray
To reuse the paint tray, line it with aluminum foil or plastic bag to minimize contact of paint and the tray for later usage.
Use Nails to Support the Table and Chair While Painting
Screw a nail to allow you paint the lower parts of the table and chair. This will also minimize contact between the paint and the floor surface. You can also place newspapers on the floor before you paint furniture.
Support Heavy Furniture with Bed Risers
Just like the nail for light furniture, use raisers for heavy furniture.
Remove Paint Stains from Furniture Using a Heat Gun
High temperatures melt oil paint, instead of scratching your furniture to remove paint. Use a heat gun to melt the paint out then wipe with a wet canvas cloth.
Apply Vaseline to Prevent Areas You Do Not Want to Paint
Paint cannot sick in an oily surface. Vaseline is oily and does not absorb paint.
These hacks are the basic principles in handling paint. Paint stains can be difficult to get rid of. Apply the following hacks for a smooth painting task before using belt sanders to finish on your walls, here are some belt sanders to choose from.


- Latex Paints
- Latex paints are a class of paints
usually made by mixing different pigments and binders in
water. Clean up with warm soapy water, shorter drying
time, and low odor are the most notable features of
Latex paints are popular for a few good reasons:
- They quickly dry to the touch (half an hour in a typical interior application).
- They have less odor than oil/alkyd paint.
- Tools can be cleaned with soap and warm water.
- They retain their sheen/gloss longer.
- They retain their color longer.
- They are more flexible than oil based paint.
- They are V.O.C. compliant. (V.O.C.'s are Volatile Organic Compounds) which are the amounts of unstable components let off into the atmosphere during use of a product. Regulations of V.O.C. are in effect to help reduce pollution. Latex paint is the least detrimental to the environment.
- Latex paints resist blistering and peeling because they do not trap moisture.
Latex paints use water to make the paint easier to spread. Microscopic pores allow water vapor to pass through the dried paint film. Because of this "breathing" ability, moisture is less likely to build up between the paint and the surface

Jasmine Becket-Griffith is a traditional acrylic painter, combining elements of realism with fantasy and the surreal.
Historical and spiritual references are intertwined with fairytales and the beauty of nature. Her trademark liquid-eyed maidens evoke a wide range of emotions and responses to the surrounding imagery. It is her goal to bring a bit of magic and mystery to the mundane world with every painting!
Jasmine’s images appear in many books and magazines as well as countless merchandising lines such as the Bradford Exchange and Hamilton Collection, and her artwork with the Walt Disney Company, LucasFilm and more. Her paintings have a very wide appeal, appearing in public and private collections throughout the world, and she maintains an ever-growing legion of fans from all walks of life with her “Strangeling” brand.
Jasmine was born in 1979 and began showing her work professionally in 1997. She is a full-time painter and lives between her studios in Celebration, Florida, and Long Beach, California. Her primary galleries are the Corey Helford Gallery in Los Angeles and Disney’s WonderGround & Pop Galleries at Disneyland and Disney World.
Howdy, I’m Jasmine! I am the creator of the Strangeling brand, the painter of all the paintings, and the artist behind the Strangeling Public Domain project.
I have decided to gift the bulk of my extensive back catalogue of images to the public. In this initial phase of the project I am facilitating the process by including 625 high resolution scans of my original acrylic paintings spanning from 1999-2021 as free downloads on this website.
Art lovers, Strangeling fans, and students are all welcome to enjoy the images close-up. Crafters, teachers, and hobbyists can have fun with printing out the pictures for learning and entertainment. In what I understand is an industry first, I’m taking this project a step further by offering these works free of charge for any individual or company wishing to license my images for free, with no restriction, as I have decided to register all of these paintings under the Creative Commons 0 “No Rights Reserved” license.


On hot summer days, pollution from cars and other gas-powered engines along with chemicals in paints and aerosol sprays can create unhealthy levels of smog. There are things you can do to help keep the air healthy when the temperature rises. Skip mowing or using a leaf blower for a day or two, if they’re gas powered. Choose water-based latex paints for your painting projects. On smoggy days especially, avoid using oil-based paints and varnishes. And consider leaving your car at home. Commute by transit, carpool or bike to work.


Reception, May 24, 6-8 PM
Greenberg Van Doren Gallery is pleased to present a solo exhibition of new medium and large-scale paintings by Eva Lundsager. This is the artist's first solo exhibition in New York in 9 years and her first with the gallery. The show, titled Wherever, is on view from May 24 through July 7, 2006. Lundsager is a recent recipient of a Penny McCall Foundation Grant and a Guggenheim Fellowship in painting.
A painter who has been committed to abstraction for more than two decades, Lundsager continues to mine the rich territory between landscape and abstraction, finding inspiration in the mysticism of Charles Burchfield's landscapes and the atmospheric skies of Edvard Munch, among other sources. In her vigorously painted canvases, fields and stripes of gradated color stumble forth with tumbleweeds of line and texture. In Radiating People Trees, 2006, repeated and undulating lines provide movement and rhythm to the lower portion of the picture, while in another painting, Merry Munk, 2005, a red sky alludes to the apocalyptic landscape backgrounds of Munch.
Lundsager works intuitively: her painting is a vehicle for making interior life visible. Entering her paintings, one encounters a physical process that transforms and builds richness out of itself. Besides being striking visual events, her paintings pose important questions about the nature of abstraction and painting in general. In her new works, Lundsager dwells completely in a painting universe of irreproducible events and gestures where one finds much possibility for joy and redemption in painting.
Eva Lundsager was born 1960 in Buffalo, NY and currently lives and works in St. Louis, MO. She received her B.A. from the University of Maryland and an M.F.A. from Hunter College, NY. Lundsager has exhibited widely in the past 15 years, including Jack Tilton Gallery, NY; Whanki Museum, Seoul; Schmidt Contemporary, St. Louis, the Kemper Art Museum, St. Louis, Geoffrey Young Gallery, Great Barrington, MA; and Thomas Von Lintel Gallery, Munich, Germany.


Ernest de Saisset: Selections from the Permanent Collection
September 26, 2009 - April 30, 2010
Ernest de Saisset (1864-1899) was born to a prominent San Jose family who immigrated to the United States from France during the Gold Rush years. He was the oldest son of Pedro de Saisset, founder and president of the Brush Electric Light Company of San Jose, and Maria J. Palomares. The couple had four children: Ernest, Henrietta, Pierre, and Isabel.
At the age of 16, Ernest de Saisset enrolled in classes at Santa Clara College, staying on for three academic years. In his third and final year, he studied oil painting with Father Tortone, which helped to determine his future path. In 1886, unable to find a suitable professional art teacher in San Jose, de Saisset traveled to Paris and enrolled in the Académie Julian. After several years of study, Ernest returned to San Jose in 1895 and continued to paint until his early death in 1899.
The paintings included in this exhibition are drawn from the Museum's permanent collection and represent only a small portion of the works by Ernest de Saisset in our holdings. Throughout his career, de Saisset focused his attention on portraiture, often choosing people who were well-known to him—his parents, siblings, and teachers—as his subjects. This familiarity may have contributed to his ability to capture the true likeness of his sitters. In a letter to his father de Saisset writes, "I am getting along all right [in Paris]—everything comes as easily as eating. They all wonder how [I] get the likeness so well. I beat all the students in painting portraits from nature."

This Q & A with artist, Lyndon Gaither, dives deep into Lyndon’s creative process and what it takes to create such vibrant pieces of art.
Lyndon Gaither grew up on his Grandad Gaither’s farm in West Texas, riding stick horses and wearing a Cowboy hat and boots. As a child, he spent a lot of time drawing the animals that were part of his daily life and he always knew he wanted to be an artist.
He pursued art in college and graduated with a BFA in Graphic Design. Lyndon then spent three years in the US Army designing and building 3-dimensional exhibits for the Recruiting Support Center in Virginia while working alongside and being inspired by very talented artists who were Graphic Designers, Photographers, Illustrators, and writers. He spent his professional career in several jobs such as a graphic designer, museum exhibit designer, and illustrator who used to design themed amusement parks. He currently lives in Dallas, Texas with his wife and is blessed to have a fun family of two children and four grandchildren.
What originally caught my eye with Lyndon’s work was his use of bright colors and texture within his pieces. It’s phenomenal to see so many different pieces of his work come together to create a cohesive piece of art.
Q: How did you find your way into painting modern western art?
A: Throughout my design career, I also painted, often doing outdoor art festivals. In my early years, I created western and nostalgic paintings in brown sepia tones. Then, later in life, I reinvented myself and began painting full-time, but this time my paintings reflected a lot of new ideas that included painting with bright colors.
I went back to my western roots and began to create Contemporary Western Art using a palette of bright colors. I wanted to introduce a “Pop of Color” to the world of horses, cowboys, and western decor.
Q: When you are working on new pieces, how do you determine your subject?
A: I often go back to “my young self ” and paint what I love, horses! I love painting vibrant-colored horses with flowing red and blue manes! I have found myself evolving into painting other farm and ranch animals, such as cows, bulls, pigs, roosters, and goats as well.
Naturally, with my Texas roots, I have painted Texas Longhorns and several varieties of cacti. My travels to Yellowstone National Park, Montana, and Wyoming have inspired me to begin painting wildlife. I have completed several paintings of bison, wolves, and bears. I have an elk drawn on canvas ready to begin painting next.
Q: What does your creative process look like from start to finish after you’ve decided on what you will be painting?
A: I spend a lot of time researching the subjects of my paintings as I paint from photographs. Each painting is the result of parts and pieces of different images taken from multiple photographs which result in the final composition of every new painting. I start out by drawing in pencil on canvas, then as I draw, I visualize what the final painting will look like upon completion and in my mind, I am seeing what colors I will use as I draw.
I begin every canvas by painting the reflection in the eyes first. I have had many compliments from farmers and ranchers who raise animals, that I have a gift for painting animals’ eyes. To me, this is the highest compliment I could receive. When I start a new painting, I start with the eyes because I believe the eyes reflect the soul of the animal. If I get the eyes right, I have captured the essence of my subject.
My next step is to begin painting layers upon layers of different colors and textures until I am satisfied that the painting is complete.
Q: How long does each painting typically take from start to finish?
A: It really depends on the size, subject matter, and complexity of the painting, all paintings are different and some take longer than others. Once I start a painting and get into it, I often work long days and into the night. I don’t want to rush and often am working on several paintings at a time.
Q: What message do you hope to share with your art?
A: I show my work at the Houston Rodeo in March and the NFR in Vegas during December. I paint in my booth during both of these shows. It allows me to continue to work and I enjoy visiting with people about what I am working on. They are always amazed that painting in front of a crowd does not bother me. No one is more amazed at that than I am! One of the biggest joys for me is when a person walks past me as I am painting and upon seeing my work, stops, and a great big smile comes across their face. I always put down my brush and visit because I like to hear what they have to say about my work. They often tell me that my paintings and my vibrant colors make them feel happy. It does not get any better than that for an artist.
It is fun and gratifying to talk about art with young artists and those aspiring for a career in art. Crowds gather when I paint and I often look up to see young kids watching me, totally mesmerized. I occasionally invite the young artists to help me paint on the canvas. The awe and excitement on their faces are priceless and they are always so careful to paint in the area that I suggest to them. It is even more fun to see the fear on their parent’s faces, worried that their child might ruin my painting. That fear quickly turns to pride seeing their creative child have the opportunity to see and participate in creating art. The kids often come back or email a painting or drawing that they have done to show me their art. How great is that!
Q: Each artist develops their own style, but is there an artist that you look up to or have a similar style to that you admire?
A: There are several Contemporary Western artists that are producing fabulous work in today’s market. Some of my favorites are LeRoy Neiman, John Nieto, Jeff Ham, Teal Blake, and Peter Robbins.
Q: Do you have any closing thoughts about you or your business that you’d like our audience to know?
A: Last fall I put my art career on pause as I underwent DBS (Deep Brain Stimulation) surgery to calm the Essential Tremor in my right hand and it worked! This surgery is a true miracle and I now have control of my right hand once again. It has changed my life and I can get back to painting!
I have found that the people in the Western community are hard-working, down-to-earth people who care about others, their animals, and their country. I enjoy being a small part of that culture. I am often told that God has blessed me with the wonderful talent of creating art. I feel so grateful and blessed every day that I am doing what I love! I believe that you don’t ever retire from what you love to do and the gifts that fuel your soul!

One of the most popular forms of art is watercolor painting. This medium is easy to learn and can be used to create various beautiful works of art.
There are many reasons why people have a hard time starting to paint with watercolor. One of these is that they don’t know how to use the medium or might not have the necessary supplies. Another reason is they might not know how to practice correctly. Some people are afraid that they might be unable to progress due to their lack of motivation.
If these are the reasons why you don’t want to start painting with watercolor, then you are missing out on one of the most beautiful and satisfying art forms.
Most people who don’t want to start painting with watercolor don’t know what to expect from this fantastic medium. They might have already used another type of paint or not have the necessary supplies.
Despite its playful nature, watercolor is a rewarding medium that can be used to create a variety of beautiful and satisfying art projects. The combination of water and pigment creates vibrant color. Also, the transparent paint allows artists to see their brushstrokes easily.
Due to its playful nature, watercolor has been regarded as a difficult medium to learn and control. However, it is also important to remember that accidents are an opportunity to improve. People must take advantage of these moments to improve their skills.
You don’t need a lot of supplies to start painting. People need basic equipment to start painting with watercolor, including a brush, a few paints, and watercolor paper.
According to the basic color theory, you can mix any color from the three primary colors of red, yellow, and blue. To achieve the best results in watercolor painting, you need warm and cool shades of each primary color for a total of six paints.
Before you start painting with watercolor, you need a good brush. The type of brush that you need is designed to work well with water. One of the essential factors you need to consider when choosing a good brush is the quality of its bristles. Usually, the best type of brush is made of natural hair. However, if you are looking for an affordable alternative, you can use a combination of synthetic and natural bristles. Medium-size round brushes are ideal for a wide variety of brushstrokes. However, if you use a small size, you might spend a lot of time picking up the paint.
If you plan to use watercolor, you need to purchase high-quality paper. However, if you are not planning on spending a lot of money on this medium, you can still get a good student grade paper suitable for the job.
With the right tools and attitude, getting started with watercolor painting can be fun, easy, and relaxing. If you need inspiration for what to paint, check the internet for fun, simple ideas to try out.

This week I want to show you a piece from an 18 month old. I labeled the piece the Patchwork Pig. And looking at the photo you can see India painted it any color she wanted. This is the final result. I painted the eyes and toes, but the rest was all her creative juices flowing. It won 1st place at the Arts and Craft booth at the fair.
This piece is a piggy bank and it's popular with young painters.
It's never too early to let your child get creative. While it's tempting to "help" them do it the "right" way, it's important that they learn to express themselves from an early age.
And there's never a "wrong" finished piece, from the blue pig to the pink giraffe, a youngster can always be proud of the results and, as you can see from this pig that was painted many years ago, the piece can serve as a keepsake for years to come.


Learn to create a painting in gorgeous, rich oil paints in just one day!
We have all been taught that ‘oil and water do not mix’ however, rules are made to be broken in art. Winsor & Newton water soluble oil paints look like and behave like traditional oil paints but allow you the freedom to work solvent-free in a non-toxic studio environment, ideal for those with allergies or an aversion to solvents (like me). When combined with the drama of Acrylic Inks these oils can create stunning effects in painting. Learn to PLAY with your paints – interact with your own creativity and surprise yourself with the results..
Start at the very beginning under the professional guidance and encouragement of award-winning artist Denise Hogan. Learn how to choose a suitable image to work from (or bring your own), how to easily create that image on canvas and bring the whole painting to life – simply, easily and whilst having the most fun.
Like Denise’s regular weekly classes you will learn how to look at Art, how to read Art and how to communicate with your materials. No experience is necessary. All are welcome from complete beginners to experienced painters. Everyone will be working on their own image at their own pace so there is no pressure to keep up with anyone but yourself!
All the materials you will need are provided, including paints, brushes, canvas, sketching materials and image library. Choose from our small library of art books and lessons here at the studio, or you are welcome to bring your own image to inspire you.
The workshops run from 10.30am – 5.30pm with refreshments available all day. There is a break at midday to enjoy a home cooked lunch.


Michèle Griffiths is a “local” artist in several ways. She trained at Wimbledon School of Art in the early nineties (in Fine Art : Painting, under Prunella Clough ) and worked at Wimbledon Art Studios for many years. Her first career was in teaching languages at Putney High School and she lived in Southfields for 25years.
Michèle was brought up with both English (at school) and French (at home) but felt fully confident in neither. After overcoming this by teaching both, she realised that her best language was painting. She did her Painting degree in her thirties and went on to paint full time, exhibiting increasingly often and successfully in the UK as well as in international Art Fairs.
Michèle can be contacted via her website: www.michelegriffiths.com or by email: firstname.lastname@example.org


Acrylic is a very forgiving medium. By this, I mean that if you goof up you can just paint over it and start again! Can’t do that with watercolor; at least not unless you are very, very skilled with it. I do love the way a talented watercolorist can bring a painting to life with watercolor, but sadly, I find it much harder to work with than acrylics. I am a kind of “create as I go painter”, and with watercolor it seems necessary to minutely plan each step. I am the type of artist who starts with just a general sketch and then details with paint as I go. While I like the way oils look (my mother worked in them) I can’t use them because of the chemicals and the smell. Oils also dry too slowly for a painter like me. I end up with mud every time because I am too impatient to wait days until my canvas is workable again! Pastels and charcoal make fantastic mediums when done by an artist skilled in their use, and they don’t stink but I am such a messy painter that I inevitably end up with as much on me as I do on the canvas or paper!
Acrylics are wonderful for impatient painters like me. Since each layer will dry and be workable in about a half hour, in four or five hours I can add at least four layers of paint without creating mud which every artist dreads. (You know when you’ve accidentally mixed your colors on top of each other and ended up with a dark mess instead of the beautiful color you were aiming for?) I confess that it puzzles me to hear of other artists complaining that acrylics dry too fast to work with since I often have to stop and walk away for that half hour in order to let my painting become dry enough to add another layer of paint.
Acrylics paint is such a chameleon that if I want parts of my work to look like a watercolor, I just thin my acrylic paint to make it more transparent. There are many additions that can be used to alter the properties of Acrylics, but I just use water to thin my paint. If I want an area I am working on to stay wet a little longer, instead of adding a slow-dry medium, I spray the canvas with water or wet it with a brush. I don’t use any of the available mediums that are supposed to slow down the speed in which acrylics dry. I have tried them but I didn’t like working with them.
Acrylics typically dry darker and less shinny than they look when wet. There are mediums you can mix with your paints to give acrylics that shinny appearance typical of an oil painting, but this medium does slightly alter the way in which acrylic paint acts when painting with it. The same effect can be achieved if you simply apply a coat of varnish to the painting when it is done.
The amount of paint an artist applies to the painting also has an effect on how fast an acrylic application will dry. I have noticed that many artists who received their first artistic training in transparent watercolor seem to put a lot less paint on a canvas each time than I do, which might account for their acrylics drying faster than they expect. I find that acrylic loves to be applied nice and thick. The thicker the paint (the more you start out with on the brush each time) the easier it is to push it around on the canvas and the longer it will take to dry.
If you are having trouble with acrylic painting techniques, don’t give up. If you can’t find a class in acrylics by a local expert, there are many wonderful instruction videos and books available. You can also take advantage of your local art groups demonstrations at their general meetings. The two experts in Acrylic painting that I have learned the most from are Jerome Grimmer, an artist who lives in my area part time and gives workshops when he is in Fresno, and Jerry Yarnell, who lives in Oklahoma and publishes instructional videos that can be found on public television stations or bought from the internet.
Acrylic paintings now make up a significant part of the permanent collections of museums and art galleries. Artists’ acrylic paint was introduced in the 1950s and since then has dominated the arts and crafts market. In addition, it has been accepted by artists as a viable alternative to oil paint. Unlike oil paints, which have existed for centuries, Acrylic paints are a relatively new medium. Once dry, acrylic paint is not water-soluble and will usually be dry within 30 minutes of application, whereas oils do not become dry to the touch for 48 hours. Most acrylic paint used by artists is water-based. There is a form of acrylic paint that is solvent based, but it is not in general use by artists. A variety of additives can be added to the acrylic paint to make them easier to work with or to give the texture wanted by the artist. Examples of these are thickeners, stabilizers, preservatives, and merging solvents.
Because it is a 20th century product, artists don’t have centuries of experience to tell what effect aging may have on an acrylic painting. Acrylic colors retain their original brilliance as long, or longer, than traditional oil paints, and they are much less delicate and prone to damage by UV radiation than watercolors and other water-based paints. The surface of a finished acrylic painting does not seem to become brittle or yellow with age, but remains flexible, insoluble and stable.
The behavior of acrylics as a painting medium and their physical and chemical properties are different from oil paint and merit different strategies in caring for acrylic paintings. Some traditional conservation methods can in fact cause damage to the acrylic paintings. The aging characteristics of acrylic paintings are just beginning to be understood. It is known that aging may cause some acrylic paintings to form a grey veil on their surface or develop yellow discoloration. The soft film formed by acrylic paint will easily abrade or dent with just fingernail pressure. This type of damage can ruin the appearance of paintings that should display a perfect surface. Because Acrylic paint stretches when exposed to heat and cold, Acrylic paintings are expected to develop fewer cracks than oil paintings when they age. Acrylic paintings can withstand much greater forces without breaking. Cracks can form in acrylic paintings however. When exposed to sub-zero temperatures, acrylics become increasingly brittle and crack so don’t store your acrylic paintings in a freezer!
Acrylic paintings have unique qualities that need diligent preventive care to avoid long-term damage. Acrylic paint attracts and holds dirt and is difficult to clean. Varnishing to protect the paint is not a perfect solution either. It is imperative to store acrylic paintings in a dust free, smoke free location to reduce the amount of dirt accumulated. It is also important to keep the display or storage temperature below standard room temperatures to reduce further softening of the paint film. One might have to accept that acrylic paintings will experience some visual change due to dirt as time goes on. Avoid handling the painting’s surface directly. Erosion from scuffing or touching the paint surface can damage or alter the appearance of the work significantly. This is because skin oils are acidic and can damage the artwork over time. Dust and dirt are a particular hazard. Acrylics can also pick up mold residue if they are stored in a warm climate like a bathroom or locker room, or even a kitchen.
At present, there is no completely satisfactory solution to the problem of cleaning acrylic paintings. Removal of the top most dirt layer is perceived to be easier on a varnished painting. Varnishes provide surface protection from abrasion, dust and dirt. Varnishing acrylic paintings has problems attached to it. Natural varnishes, such as dammar, will yellow in time and the solvent used in their removal will dissolve or soften the acrylic paint layer, thus damaging your painting. A water-soluble varnish may be an answer; however, this is still being researched by manufacturers to see what long-term effects may take place. Instead, it is important to store acrylic paintings in a dust free environment to reduce the amount of dirt deposited while keeping the display or keep the temperature below standard room temperatures to reduce further softening of the paint film.


We are looking forward to our latest exhibition with new works by Pius Fox, since his participation in the painting show “Jetzt! junge Malerei in Deutschland” (“Now! Young Painting in Germany”) exhibited at the Bundeskunsthalle Bonn, Museum Chemnitz, Museum Wiesbaden and in the Deichtorhallen Hamburg.
Representational and figurative themes have reappeared in Fox’s work and have done so since his studies. These are based on photos that he has taken himself, photos that have fascinated and inspired him over many years. With his new works, he sometimes uses a projector to bring these onto canvas or paper. Throughout his work, Fox continually makes it clear that his abstractions are largely based on objects and photos, and that the painted forms and structures are taken from things that exist in reality.
These representational forms allow Fox to deal with the question of how paintings are built up; how drawing, underpainting, oil paint, varnish, and an opaque or impasto paint application work together to create depth of colour. He investigates the fundamental question of how the journey from idea to image takes place – how certain desired effects can be executed technically.
Egg tempera has recently become increasingly important to Fox in this process. This technique is historically much older than oil painting and he applies this to many works as an underpainting in light – dark contrasts before oil paints and other materials are applied on top. This enables him to work in several layers, creating a greater depth of colour without the paint becoming too thick. Fox describes how difficult it is to decide when to switch to oils and when he will allow the oil paint to be applied with the immediate spontaneous decisions that determine the vibrant surface.
For this exhibition, Fox has even forced himself to leave his traditional 30cm format in which he navigates confidently and that his work is known for worldwide. He has consciously chosen medium and larger formats to achieve the equivalent intensity and density.
The unwieldy wordplay of the German exhibition title is the result of various considerations. First of all, the Corona-induced retreat into private life means not only a more familiar environment, but also an intensive examination of his own work and art-historical positions such as that of Picasso and Matisse. Fox alludes to the concept of “Setzung”(setting, positioning) that can be observed in Picasso’s lines and strokes which can only be set in this one precise form in order to facilitate the relevant contextual significance of the depicted. The remarkable certainty with which Picasso or Matisse could place lines that are then filled with meaning fascinates him continually. “Auseinandersetzen” is understood as dealing with or grappling with something by taking things apart (“auseinandernehmen”) and putting them back together – which plays a significant role in and describes the principle of Fox’s work.


Each year leaders in the design, architecture and paint manufacturing industries meet and forecast design and fashion trends for the upcoming year. For 2023, they are predicting that happy colors will dominate interior design trends accompanied by vibrant neutrals. Let’s be honest- we’re all ready for more happiness in our lives this year. If you are looking for a little real estate happiness in your life please be sure to like and follow Shore Prime Properties on Facebook, LinkedIn and YouTube. Let’s dive into what the paint color forecast for this year is looking like and how to pick the best ones for you. Here are some tips for picking a paint color. We also have other videos regarding colors paint and interior design be sure to check them out to dive deeper into paint and color selection.
Take your time and don’t feel rushed to pick a color:
Don’t place paint swatches next to each other- rather paint each color on separate walls. Patrick O’Donnell, international brand ambassador at Farrow and Ball and an expert in paint colors, recommends separating colors because it can become too difficult to determine which color is best when they are too close together. Once you’ve painted the color swatches, wait 24 to 48 hours before making a judgment on the color. You will want to see the colors during the day and at night.
Incorporating 2023 color trends into your home:
These suggestions will help you to incorporate fresh paint colors into your home this year.
Shades of yellow have become increasingly popular for interiors and they can be used for almost any type of room style- modern, glam or traditional. Yellow is also great for rooms without windows. Soft yellows incorporated with neutrals and accents of blues and green can add even more dimension.
Blue is the most loved color in the world so it’s no surprise that it’s a trending interior paint color. The color blue brings depth and dimension to any room and is a good contrast to earth tone colors and materials. Design professionals expect brighter blue hues like cobalt and electric blue, as well as more subdued blues like midnight and navy to be increasingly popular.
Green goes well with natural colors and materials and stone and tile are a fantastic complement to a variety of gray shades. Also considered to be one of the best neutrals, gray is a perfect option for someone wanting a more subdued color palette.
Since hazelnut is a darker shade of a neutral beige, designers recommend that using this color is best as a background color. In fact hazelnut has become the adoptive neutral color.

Sandra began her career as an artist after retiring from a long career in the telecommunications and project management arenas. During her preparation for retirement, Sandra joined a friend in attending oil painting classes. Even though she had only painted in watercolors for a short time 20 years before, and did not care for that media, she found that she loved painting with oils and has been hooked ever since! Her focus is on painting the things she loves - sea shells, beaches, landscapes, flowers, still life, and beautiful scenery in Italy.
Her artwork was accepted into the SC State Fair Fine Arts Exhibition – Amateur Division for years 2014 through 2017 (she was unable to submit an entry in 2018). In 2016, her piece entitled “Poppies Galore” won a Merit Award in the Amateur Division of the Crooked Creek Art League's (CCAL) Juried Show (Chapin, S.C.). And in 2018 another piece, “Lillies at Brookgreen” won a Patron Award in the Amateur Division of the CCAL's Juried Show.
Sandra has returned to Greenville and loves to share her paintings with others and always looks forward to beginning the next work of art!

While a lot of McFarlane figures (particularly monsters and such) used the paint scheme of multiple coats of different colored paint to give the figures a certain look, Priest eschews that for a neat and clean paint job. Multiple details are all painted with extreme precision. While her body suit uses a flat black, her boots and armored chest plate use a glossier black. The paint work on the face is neat and clean. Minor details such as the belt buckles, individual wires, and the spaces between the plates on her armored right wrist guard are not neglected. I think one of the biggest compliments I could ever say about McFarlane toys is that they never cheaped out
when it came to the details on their figures. I wish more modern toy companies thought like they did.
Actually, I'm still impressed by this toy, even by today's standards. While the likeness and articulation certainly show this as a product of the past, the details, accessories, and paint applications still hold their own. Jessica Priest is a Great action figure. I just wish she had more articulation. I would love for McFarlane to get back to it's former glory by releasing interesting, unique, and impressive toys. Their Walking Dead figures have been looking better lately, so I have hope that McFarlane will return in force. Until then, I think I'll be searching online for some 90's Spawn figures. I've got stuff to buy!

Joan Davis Art Studios
SFDC Garden Court 3HA
This current collection of paintings by San Francisco artist, Joan elan Davis, has been purchased by a small museum south of Shanghai, China. Considered a famous artist in China, Davis’ work consists of colorful floral arrangements on canvas that bring on feelings of happiness and love. Flowers hold prestige and symbolism. “No one paints flowers as does Joan Davis,” says Mr. S. Yang, Museum Director.
Joan elan Davis has been featured in Shanghai magazines, Chinese Television and has had several sold out solo exhibitions in China since 2011. The Ora Collection and all of her recent floral works are currently in prestigious private and public collections throughout the world.
Over the course of her extremely successful 20 year painting career, Davis’ signature is her sense of color, her use of charcoal and mixed media on canvas. Although the style of each painting may change, the use of the floral form and an imaginative, emotional use of color remains consistent from work to work. View these stunning masterpieces live in the SFDC Galleria atrium (101 Henry Adams St).

Popp brings fiber art to 16 Main Gallery
For Laurie Popp, the smell of oil paint smells like art. Popp is the newest artist to join 16 Main Gallery.
“My first memories of creating art were of watching my dad painting at his easel while I played in the sandbox,” Popp said. A few years ago, she started “felting” to use up the wool that was piling up at her farm near Pulaski, Tenn.
“At this point, my art is equally split between felted fiber art and painting,” in oils and acrylics, Popp said. “I almost always use my observations of animals and nature for my fiber sculptures and paintings. Living on our farm gives ample inspiration.”
Sheep raised on the family farm supply the wool for her fiber art. She dyes the wool and sells it to local felters and spinners.
Popp’s fiber art designs usually are “a loose, fun impression of the actual subject,” she said. She prefers to paint in impressionistic style.
“I paint lots of sheep. People love sheep,” Popp said. “There’s just something about them.”
In addition to art objects, many of Popp’s fiber pieces are useful as felted hats, bags, bowls and “my little wren houses that can serve as a primary residence for a young family,” she said.
Her felted sheep, pigs, chickens and bunnies are pure fun. “No use except for joy,” Popp said.
In other artistic pursuits, Popp has painted sets for various theater groups in Huntsville and Madison County for 14 years. The experience “has been incredibly encouraging to me as an artist,” she said. “It has given me miles of canvas and gallons of paint to play with and taught me to paint big and loose and not take any of it too seriously.”
Her husband Chris works at NASA. “He makes my art career possible,” she said. Their children, Mary and Matt, are attending college in Pennsylvania.
“16 Main Gallery is a great little community of artists that feels wonderfully supportive and like-minded,” she said.

In 1628, the Augustinian order commissioned altarpieces from Antwerp’s three greatest Baroque painters, i.e., from Rubens, Jordaens and Van Dyck, for their church.
Peter Paul Rubens painted the canvas for the main altar, while Jacob Jordaens and Anthony Van Dyck embellished the Apollonia and Augustine altars in the right and left naves respectively. While the three works are no longer exhibited in the church, you can still see them in Antwerp’s Royal Museum of Fine Arts, where they belong to the permanent collection. The resulting lacuna will be filled in again during “Antwerp Baroque 2018. Rubens inspires”.
In line with the historic tradition of ecclesiastical commissions, Jan Fabre was tasked with creating new, permanent works for St. Augustine’s Church.
Jan Fabre, Antwerp’s most Rubentian contemporary artist, will create new works based on the same brief that Rubens, Jordaens and Van Dyck received in 1628, drawing inspiration from the original pieces. This art installation will add a surprising accent to the church’s historic heritage, while referring to the church’s current use as the concert hall of AMUZ.

A long-ago destroyed art work by the Pop Art maestro Roy Lichtenstein comes to life for a limited time.
In December 1983, Lichtenstein created the Greene Street Mural, a site-specific, and temporary wall painting measuring 18′ × 96 1/2′ at the Castelli Gallery at 142 Greene Street. In accordance with Lichtenstein’s intention, the work was destroyed after the six-week show. Now, more than thirty years later, the piece will be recreated in Chelsea at the Gagosian Gallery under the watchful eye of Lichtenstein’s former assistant.
The iconic painting will only be on show until October 17th, so pencil in an art appreciation day ASAP.

Painter Lincoln Park, NJ
Karla Matos is a 29-year-old painter, born in Manhattan from Dominican parents who kept a very traditional home. She has three sisters who made her childhood very exciting and colorful. Coming from a big family, mostly all women who have overcome many obstacles, inspires her to persevere through tough times. Getting through tough times is something that reflects in her work since every stroke is unpredictable. Karla is constantly problem-solving as she paints. She attended Academy of Art University, took classes at Art Studio NYC where she learned a lot about finding her unique style. Karla now lives in Lincoln Park, NJ and loves it.
Karla's work can be very colorful and inspired by all types of abstract methods. She has been experimenting lately with Neo-Expressionism. Her art is always evolving; there is not much she thinks about during her painting sessions as she lets the paintbrush lead. Experimenting with color and brush strokes as she paints makes each painting distinctive, neither conventional nor easily describable. Concentrating more on the process, mixing different colors, techniques and focusing less on what the end product might be, makes it more enjoyable and frees her from the notion of having a perfect painting. For her, painting is a form of meditation. Also, it fills her with curious anticipation each time she begins a new painting, treating the canvas as a sketchbook gives her the feeling of being able to create anything her brush allows.
A quote that defines a lot of her pieces, "Life is a journey, not a destination." - Emerson

The faces are almost ready now. They have between six and eight layers of paint each, and I am going to design bodies for them today.
I don't enjoy writing about my work online, so I will stop it after finishing these paintings. To me, keeping an online blog is almost like a really awkward way of keeping a diary. I don't want to write anything personal, yet during the actual process of painting, I don't have anything impersonal to write.
After finishing these paintings, I will include only images and short captions of text in the blog. Hopefully that'll work better.

"The work that I develop shows a dissatisfaction with the traditional limits of the painting. On the wall, there arises an unstable object, through the registration of more traditional methods of construction. The monochrome painting, almost neutral, it is appropriate to highlight the ritual act of construct/deconstruct. The canvas is cut and folded in staging that seeks to find another story, another identity; your place. It is simultaneously the affirmation of the existence of the author but also the work."

9 N Pallant,
Chichester PO19 1TJ, United Kingdom
One of Britain’s most respected portrait painters in the early 20th century, Glyn Philpot initially gained renown for his style that mimicked the old masters and, later in his career, for his sensitive depictions of Black and queer people with abstracted backgrounds and a lighter color palette. The first major exhibition of the British artist in nearly 40 years brings together more than 80 such works, many unseen in the public for decades, and reveals recent efforts to identify some of his previously anonymous subjects.

Manu Parekh, the Artist in His Delhi Home
Manu Parekh, an 83-year-old Padma Shri awardee, is a prolific artist who has spent decades contributing to the arts scene in India. From his humble home in Chittaranjan Park, Delhi, Parekh talks about his life as an artist and the people who have influenced him along the way.
Ruled by Commitment and Productivity
For Parekh, productivity and commitment are essential elements of a long-term art career. From his early years, Parekh was not granted opportunities to study abroad, like many other artists. Instead, he spent a decade in Kolkata, where he became an artist as a result of becoming a part of the Bengali intelligentsia. He points to his relationships with senior Bengali artists as influential in his artistic development.
Parekh’s dedication to his career is also reflected in his daily painting regimen, which he credits to maintaining his longevity in the arts. He emphasizes that being engaged with the craft every day, no matter the medium, has made a significant impact on his work.
Comrades in Art
Parekh speaks highly of other artists, both for their technical skills and their innovative approaches to the craft. He admires Rabindranath Tagore for his originality and authentically Indian style. Parekh also commends the reckless style of F.N. Souza and the complex and multi-dimensional works of Bhupen Khakhar. However, Parekh also highlights his admiration for his wife’s sweet yet profound artistic works.
The artist credits his relationship with other artists for his growth in the arts. He speaks about how interacting with other artists has expanded his understanding of techniques, processes, and mediums. Parekh is a firm believer that understanding someone else’s art can broaden an artist’s viewpoints, approaches, and styles – making them better artists.
An Art Collection of Lessons and Inspiration
Mixed among Parekh’s own works on his home’s walls are paintings by his wife, Madhvi Parekh, Ashok Ahuja, and Bhupen Khakhar. Each piece offers lessons and sources of inspiration, inspiring him to keep painting daily. Parekh explains, “It’s a way of respecting the work of others and serve as signals of growth so that one may improve their own”.
– Parekh spent a decade in Kolkata, where he became an artist thanks to the city’s arts and crafts scene.
– Parekh’s wife Madhvi Parekh is also an acclaimed artist whose style reflects her own profoundness.
– Parekh credits his relationship with other artists for expanding his understanding of techniques, processes, and mediums.
Manu Parekh, an artist who has spent decades contributing to the art scene in India, emphasizes the value of productivity and commitment to an art career. He credits his relationship with other artists for the growth of his artistic talents. Parekh demonstrates a deep respect for other artists’ work, and whether they are his friends or famous artists, by having their works on his walls.
Manu Parekh has left an indelible mark on Indian art that is the product of his dedication and work ethics. His art captures and reflects Indian culture, society, and life. Parekh’s willingness to learn from others, respect their work, and see the strengths in their art allows him to continue to grow as an artist. Parekh is an example of how productivity and commitment can positively impact a long-term art career.

“I paint for the sake of art, for the celebration of colour and for my own joy. Colour and bold brushwork allow me to build vivid landscape representations like rich tapestries. Onsite, in the fresh air with my colours, is a great day spent. I have a deep passion to interpret the mountains, trees and skies of the Rocky Mountains where I live, in my own unique way. The challenge of growing as an artist is constant. I have always been, and will always be, a working artist, reveling in the continued learning process.”
