Really appreciate the methodical breakdown. Makes much more sense to me now. Next obvious step is to get out my own supplies and see how they perform for me!
The thought and preparation you put into your videos really shows. Thank you for doing it.
Perfect timing!! I have been researching the use of crackle for a few days now. Thanks for the great insights and direction. Now I know what to look for.
Thank you for explaining it so clearly!
Thank you France, the crackle and I aren't the best of friends, but now I feel confident to give it another try 😃
This is an excellent video-instructions! Thank you for making this!
What an absolutely awesome demo! So clear, so thoughtfully communicated. Thanks very much.
For a first time user like me, this video was everything that I needed to start. Thanks a ton for this detailed video
Wow. This has been so informative! Thank you so much.
Excellent. Now I know what I've been doing wrong. Always read the instructions! Thank you.
Ty for awesome instruction and explanation!!
Hi, just came across this episode. Have used crackle medium before just to see what would happen always reading before hand and then following instructions. Seeing as I'm more an abstract artist I tend to experiment and maybe stretch the boundary's a little bit ( ok, a lot!) I found this really helpful. Please keep on what you're doing and more videos with other special effects paints and or mediums!
Thank you for the video, it was very helpful.
Very informative video thank u so much for share 🙏💕 france
Great process thank you
Oh thanks ! So helpfull for me!
Thanks for the info 🙏💕
Thank you France for this interesting video. I’m using actually crackle medium of DecoArt. It’s ok to learn how to use it with 2 colors. Have a nice weekend. A bientôt.
Very useful! Thank you!
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you so much for this video! I have been very interested in crackle glazes but have been hesitant to use the ones I have purchased because I feel like I am wasting it because the cost is so high. I have the Ranger Inksentials crackle accents one step crackle medium and the golden crackle paste. I was just reading recently that you can make your own with PVA glue, like Elmers glue all. Just apply the glue, wait until it is starting to dry but not fully dried, then add a coat of paint on top. Let it air dry. You will probably mention that in this video, but I am commenting before it has finished playing. :-)
Only half way through this video and loving it
What was your favourite part? Would love to know!
So helpful! I've had such variability with these and now I know why.
Excellent! I learned so much. Looking to crackle decoupage paper, so I’m guessing the one-step product then applying dark glaze will work. Time to experiment!
VERY informative!
THANKYOU!
Wonderful video! Thank you for sharing ♥️ I’m wondering how to find one of the sanding blocks you used?
I did a video yesterday comparing JoSonja crackle medium and Golden Crackle Paste. It was fun, and both turned out really great. Thanks for comparing even more for us to see! ❤️
Sally Van Nuys, Mixed Media Artist is your video on your Channel? Can’t Seem to find it. I have Golden products in my city, so would love to watch :)
Maria Langmann Rasmussen yes it is. It’s called Acrylic Spread and Crackle. czcams.com/video/eO4gwGxxFbU/video.html let me know what you think. Thank you! ❤️
Very interesting and informative video! Thank you! What kind of cover do you have on your table/desk? It looks really easy to clean.
Much needed tutorial❣️❣️❣️❣️thank you❣️❣️❣️❣️
Thanks
So what I’ve been doing wrong all along is not reading fully! LOL
Well done! Very informative and nicely presented. Please keep your videos coming!
France, this video was so educational. Thank you so much.
I have a question, if you could kindly answer please. What method do you suggest to get crackle on goldleaf?
Very interesting. I definitely didn't know the science behind it.
Reading the directions? What? LOL I like the brand (I like folkart brand) you can use your heat gun on. I'm way too impatient to wait. ;)
Hi will this work on plaster or sculpture paste instead of paints.
can i paint over crackled paint. its hunter green and i want to change the color. i dont know what type of paint used. just bought them this way.
question 05:55 your canvas is moving independently from the things on top of it. Are you working on a glass or acrylic sheet? Or is my mind warping into insanity?
is there a way to revamp crackle medium if it has been left to long in the pottle and dried out? 😅 Could I add water or another medium to get the right consistency again?
Excellent video! Thank you so much. I’ve watched many others but this is the best and most thorough! Much needed as I’ve been doing it all wrong! 🙈
Let me know how it goes now! :)
Do you paint this after it dries or do you put this on top of paint that’s already dry ?
France hello, what kind of material your desk work made of ? Everything easily cleaned from it . What company is this ?
Im doing a big war table. and I want a good piece of it to have eroded ground. So I cant have the super small crackles. And white cement with glue and paint isn't working for me. What medium or varnish or glaze would you recommend for crackle islands ranging from 4mm to 1 cm wide?
Excellent question; the very reason I am here.
Perhaps now with an additional question she may answer?
Please...?
i would ask which one of the crackle medium you used on yr last white cracked project which appeared just the last shot before you end yr vdo.... pls kindly inform cuz very beautiful/// thanks
♥️♥️♥️😍😍😍😍😍Grazie🌹
Where can you buy the sanding block? Thanks for the demo!
You're welcome! The sanding blocks are available right here: www.france-papillon.com/tools
I think it wont work for small areas like a small scale building. I've been trying with no good results.
What is the mat you are using that allows you to clean up so easily? And what are you using when you wipe it clean?
it's a craftsheet! I just use a rag now, but back in the days I used baby wipes or kitchen roll, which wasn't very eco friendly ;)
Can you do this on a saw blade? Is there anyway to correct my mistake of applying medium glaze over my painted surface and apply the crackle instead? I think I really goofed up.
Yes you can apply the crackle medium over the glaze but it might chip off depending on the sturdiness of the blade
Great video! Do you ship products to USA? Thanks!!💕
Yes I do! Shipping cost will be shown before confirmation of your order 😀
I was hoping to see how to achieve the main pic since that's the effect want...can anyone provide pointers...I would like the end result to show white, yellow and gray with the crackle effect
that was done with a combination of spray inks and oil pastels over the dried crackle paste.
Hello there! I've been observing ur mat that u use, wiping away any paints & etc. Can u tell me exactly wat this mat is? And where to find it, and the name please?
I’m just guessing here, but it looks a lot like a vinyl tablecloth my grandmother made, and that I use for this purpose. I bet you could make one yourself. Try going to a fabric store (or ordering online) vinyl by the yard from a fabric store. Be sure to measure the table top you’ll be using to determine the yardage needed. Some vinyls are backed with a rubber-like finish, others with a softer side, or you could just buy plain vinyl.
(I worked in a fabric store once upon a time) ☺️
Does the Paper Artsy product turn yellow?
yes it does, but that is absolutely okay! Just a reaction to sunlight ;)
Sorry for my bad english. Im trying to do this on clothes, is there any way to make this doesn't get too thick. Thank you
Crackle medium needs a sturdy surface to adhere. This will not work on clothes 🤷♀️
let's crackle it!
You mention using acrylic paint several times. Is that the only kind of paint this works with?
Be it regular acrylic or chalk paint, yes it is. You might get some crackles with watercolour or even spray inks depending on the binder is in it but it’s even harder to control.
Would it be possible to do it on a plexiglass photgraphy print?
If so, which method do you recommend?
No it wouldn’t work, the crackle medium would chip off because of lack of adherence. You will need something solvent based which I do not work with 🤷♀️
@@francepapillon good to know thanks France. I was wondering if I could send you an email (I have a. couple of images) of an artist who does this type of work and maybe you could tell me what medium he is using for his craquelure effect?
@@PROgaming-fm6yu why not ask the question to the artist himself?
@@francepapillon i've tried a couple of times with no success.
France, where did you find your flat nose palette knife?
Nina Fickett it’s a very handy one,isn’t it? 😊 it’s available in my web shop under tools 👍
france papillon Thank you 😊

Great info, thank you France! @anonymous.palette
