My pleasure! Let me know if I can be of assistance in yoru artistic growth.

​@PatFiorello do you use the Murphy Oil Soap concentrated? Or diluted ? I just tried the concentrated and it sure does work...1🤔😁

@@laurafrench7315 I use the original liquid bottle that I just get at the supermarket. I also often follow that by Dawn dishwashing detergent or Jack's linseed studio soap( liquid not a bar) and you'd be surprised how much paint still comes out even after you think it's clean.

@@PatFiorello you’re right! I thought my brushes were clean until I used the Murphy and Dawn as you suggested. Valuable tip!

Don’t know exactly on this one. It’s been awhile since I painted it but in general I might flavor the whites in shite flowers with a small touch of color if I see it in the flower, possibly yellow green or a warm tone , to leave some room for a lighter white for some accents. All of the white areas would not be white straight our of the tube but some slight variations- might be warm whites and/or cool whites fo some subtle changes.

Hi Kim. Thanks so much for your feedback. I have another free one hour video of a demo on Painting Lilacs on CZcams and also offer zoom on line painting classes.

Hi Richie, Thanks for your message. It's a good question. In my own alla prima painting I use little, if any, additives or mediums as I find generally the paints are juicy enough as they come out of the tube. I created this video as a prelude for students taking an on line course I'm offering, The course is for absolute beginners in oil paint. I wanted to keep it to the basics so as not to overwhelm or intimidate them with the complexities of the various types of mediums and how and when to use them. People can pick that up later as needed and it will not be needed for this 3 session introductory course. If you would like to learn more about mediums Gamblin has a good explanation on their website: gamblincolors.com/oil-painting/mediums/oil-painting-mediums/. All the best, Happy Painting!

Thanks so much! If interested, I'll be doing this in a paint along format in an upcoming Zoom workshop on 7/31: www.ilchiostro.com/workshops/online-class-painting-a-still-life-with-flowers-italian-style-oils/?workshopinfo=1

A question came up on what I am painting the charts on. I chose to use a Canva Pad so that it would be flexible and be able to be stored in a binder but you could also use Canva paper or flat panels.. All available at most art supply stores or on line. For me, I thought working on stretched canvas would be too bulky to store and I would put them away and not use them so that's why I went the pad route, but one could do stretched canvases and hang them on a wall in your studio if you had ample room.

Sorry, I had replied a month ago when you asked the question but today noticed the reply wasn't linked to your original question so not sure if you ever got it before. Hope it helps. Good luck

+Lisa Cohen thanks Lisa, appreciate your comments. Glad it helped! Let me know if you'd like to receive my monthly newsletter, "Bringing Beauty to the World" . If so, you can join my list or message me on Facebook, facebook.com/PatFiorelloArtist

I would not consider it a 50/50 split. You want the page to look like the hue you are mixing . In other words the cadmium yellow page should look yellow. If you go to my blog patfiorello.blogspot.com and go into the archives for July 2011, I posted each of the charts over the month. check out patfiorello.blogspot.com/2011/07/color-charts.html It's starts July 1 and then every few days I posted another chart. Can give you a much deeper explanation than the short video.Hope that helps! Here's an example of the cadmium yellow chart: patfiorello.blogspot.com/2011/07/color-charts-1-cadmium-lemon.html

Thanks Susan. Please do share the word with our fellow artists. I also have an ongoing blog "Art Elevates Life" patfiorello.blogspot.com In July of 2012 I did a full month of blogs on the color project that might be of interest to you. There's an archive on the right column of the blog where you can access older posts. All the best to you. Happy Painting!
