Once a year, Gamblin Artists Colors collects a wealth of pigments from our Donaldson® Torit® Air Filtration system. We filter the air around the areas where we handle dry pigments so that our workers are not exposed to pigment dust. Rather than sending any of our high quality, expensive pigments into the landfill, Gamblin paint makers recycle them into Gamblin Torrit Grey. Learn more: gamblinco...

Todd Casey oil painting with Gamblin YInMn Blue, the "new blue" or "Oregon Blue"
zhlédnutí 2,2KPřed 3 lety
See Gamblin's oil paint YInMn Blue (also referred to as the "new blue" or "Oregon Blue") in action. YInMn (pronounced yin-min) is the first blue pigment discovered in over 200 years. From the tube, Gamblin YInMn Blue is a "true blue" charged with an undeniable pigment load. The formula created in 2020 by Robert Gamblin packs as much pigment as it can possibly bear to give you the full experienc...

This video shows painters how to access the universe of color or "Color Space". The animated sequences demonstrate how to define a color by its attributes: value, hue and intensity (chroma). During the program, Robert Gamblin demonstrates a few of the secrets of the Old Masters so you, too, will know how to mix green and red into blue. This is the same as the previously posted 3-part video but ...

Authentic color. Naturally.

No other painting media holds the same raw power of communication, pigment load and artistic possibility. When an artist squeezes oil color from one of our tubes, they experience color at its maximum.

Part Three: Using Color Space in Color Mixing
Can you use a cello sponge brush?
The times I used Gamvar gloss I have never been happy with the results. Instead of nice color saturation, the gamvar ends up looking like I never applied it to the work and gets flat in appearance. I size my canvases traditionally with rabbit skin glue and gamblin oil ground.
thanks, would like to see updated videos on oiling, oil ground & updated techniques for the various mediums.
A good video, but pretty cheeky to claim the Munsell system as Gamblin's!!!
Nice! You’re missing my favorite blade though: straight rectangular. Hope that shape becomes available soon.
Awesome ❤
no one. NO ONE has so concisely explained warm and cool colour to me ever - particular how the poles of the wheel work. In fact, I don't think many artists conceive this so clearly. Peter Donahue (aka Color Nerd) comes close but the 3D representation and your mixing... *chef's kiss*
A really helpful overview. Materials have changed some (a lot?) since college in the 70's, so this was very useful.
One more question: what about using Gamblin's solvent free fluid (safflower oil and galkyd) to oil out, thus avoiding solvent?
Thank you for this video! Question: Doesn't the Gamsol eat into the oil paint?
Thank you mr.Gamblin
Hello from Italy 🇮🇹 how can I buy your products ? I have take only two colours by Amazon . Thank you and greetings
Hello! I have varnished a 2x3 painting with gamvar, but unfortunately a portion of it has beading/ not shiny part. I tried to “spot treatment/fix” the area by applying gamsol, then gamvar again after a few hours, but, the spot is still visible. :( I plan to strip the varnish of the whole 2x3 feet painting using gamsol again, then revarnish it with gamvar. How long should I wait after removing gamsol, before I varnish it with gamvar again? 5 hours? 24 hours?
we really need some updated videos :) the VHS quality is retrocool, but not great to see things clearly
hope to see more content from Gamblin. I like your products and would like to see more of what can be done with it.
The upside down trick for the gallon is great
Finally I understand.....after so many years. Thank you!!!!!
As always, Gamblin gives me the tools and information to paint however I like. Thanks for the excellent content!
Can you also do this with the pigment sludge if you used walnut or safflower oil to clean your brushes?
Yes. You just need to give the “dirty” safflower oil time for the paint sediments to settle at the bottom. Keep in mind though that old oil turns rancid and will smell. They’re not toxic fumes like solvent, just the smell of rancid oil which is also how your oil paints smell like. Your paints have rancid oil too.
What paints in the Artist Oil paints would you recommend as the primaries yellow, red and blue?
Ultramarine Blue , Cadmium Yellow and Cadium Red or Alizarin Crimson. Keep in mind that cadmium is very poisonous so if you plan to use cadmium-based colours, make sure you either use gloves or wash your hands well before bringing them close to your mouth, eyes or nose if they are dirty with the colour.
I wish there was a narration, instead of stupid music. Should the Gamvar be diluted? I seem to remember another video, where someone demonstrated Gamvar application, and it was more thorough.
I know I am viewing this many years after it was first presented, but I have a question, what Cool Orange and what Warm Violet are being shown on your color wheel you created?
Oiling out with the Galkyd/Gamsol mixture as instructed worked well. Thanks. I ended up applying a 2nd oiling out coat a few days after the first because I had some darker colors were not appearing as saturated as others. Looks great now. However, after 6 days the surface is still tacky. Should it take that long to dry? I'm concerned.
Great course. Thanks, Robert!
Fascinating historiography of pigments. Thank you for this.
I love this, thank you.
That’s a lot of solvent, maybe too much
Cool
Will try the brush
Awesome!
I used cheese cloth as demonstrated, but natural canvas texture shredded the cloth and left lint embedded in the oil! I would recommend another type of cloth.
Those ears!
I just started working at an art store and feel like I know absolutely nothing! I’m so grateful for this video it’s so helpful!
Who ever thought color was so complicated
I've been wondering, how many applications of varnish can I safely apply? I like a 'thick' looking varnish to make the painting look older!
you might as well use some epoxy if you want that level of thickness
This is a fantastic video to understand colours and colour mixing. Thank you for making this available.
Can using burnt umber because instead of black and greys to avoid losing intensity or will it change the temperature of the color?
will bring down the value
I need a little more detail. I'm almost finished with a beautiful painting and never had this issue of shiny spots and very dull spots. I use refined linseed oil as a medium. My paintings have always dried to an even, satin type finish. So I'm stumped . I think some paints now come out of the tube very full bodied and dry while other oil paints are too oily and you get that glob of oil spilling out before you get to the paint. I'm afraid to complete the painting and then oil out bc I don't want to ruin it. I have Gamblin refined oil and Gamsol. can I use a 50/50 mixture over the dry painting to even the surface? help!
I have oiled out with linseed oil to good effect. I didn’t thin it much with Gamsol, and as a result the almost straight oil took almost 2 weeks before it was touch dry and not tacky.
Should I still oil out with galkyd if I didn't use a galkyd medium in the painting?
Sound is very bad. I cannot understand! :-(
this is actually what you are supposed to do lol
Jonathan Simon, where do you get empty tubes to put your new made paint?
Cheryl, a quick search for 'empty paint tubes' yields results with a wide variety of sizes. Looks like simple pliers can be used to crimp the open end. I must say, this opens my eyes to a whole new world of making my own paints while keeping our environment cleaner. Thanks, Jonathan!
Why is he dancing
I find all the Gamblin videos to be helpful. Thanks.
My one criticism: his starting point is just the usual Munsell Color System, but he never names it. That's a very weirdly glaring omission and makes it feel like he's taking credit for discovering this system, but then again that's just how capitalist marketing works ("I talked to many artists," "I discovered," "using MY system," etc). Aside from that, this was an incredibly useful and informative presentation, really useful mental models for thinking about your paints and colors! Love how he tied it to the different art movements across time, and explaining how AND WHY the different paints behave differently in different blending scenarios, then bridging that into developing your own palates and color language.
Yeah it seems like this company is trying to take more credit than they've earned.
@@dobeeeeval More a sign of the times than anything else, and luckily it's merely irritating at worst. Certainly doesn't harm the ideas or info.
The Munsell system starts from 5 primary colors: red/yellow/green/blue/violet. It makes more sense because there is more nuance between green and violet than between red and yellow and it seems more true to the complementaries of teal/red and green/magenta. I like the munsell system more because of that key difference. I also appreciate Gamblin creating this 3-d animation explaining a basic color space and mixing relations as it has helped me understand mixing so simply.
Awesome.
homeboy really roasted acrylic paint lol
Can you use Gamvar on a dry cold wax painting? Cheers
Next time, a visual demo would be cool!!..
