    That was really easy. I may have to try it sometime.
    I'm a watercolor artist, and I mix colors colors everyday. Color theory is very interesting.
    If you start with your yellow ochre about a teaspoon and keep adding pinch at a time of the red oxide you will achieve a shade of peach.
    Different yellows and different reds will give a different shade.

    After watching I immediately did a quick search on the internet about milk paint. I was surprised to find out that the paint we used in kindergarten was in fact a kind of milk paint. That was thirty years ago but the paint of that specific brand still seems to be popular today.
    And I found out that one can shorten the process considerably by using the low fat variety of quark which is sold at every supermarket where I live (Germany). However, quark as a dairy product doesn't seem to be really common in the U.S., I'm afraid...

    This is essentially limewash paint that has to some extent been rediscovered as a paint here in the UK in restoring our old houses. Modern paints tend to seal moisture into the lime rendered walls that many Georgian and Victorian houses have. Its actually good for the house to be painted in limewash. Very eco friendly and cheap too.

    • @cabincrafts2239

    Hi! Do you have any resources on how they would have done this exactly in their time? I know they didn't have a garden section to get hydrated lye. What did they do instead? I'm super curious on making this completely from scratch as much as possible. I very much may do it this way to get familiar with the process in the mean time. Thanks for the great video!

      Making quick lime and lime related products back on the day was dangerous. You had to burn lime in a fire and it's very caustic, a tedious process and dangerous to your skin and eyes. I don't recommend doing it yourself.

    Hi, Kandye! Hi, Ron! Hi, Justine! 👋🏻 Oh my gosh! This is sooo cool! I take it that there are basic pigment colors and those are combined to make other colors? I wonder if the artist’s apprentice kept a formula book with the different amounts of each pigment to make each color? 🤔 I wonder if the pigment amounts were weighed? 🧐 My interest has been piqued!

    • @cabincrafts2239
      @cabincrafts2239  Před rokem

      Yes on all questions! Some artists had trade secrets too. Titian was a Renaissance painter known for his use of red, so titian red is named for him. In order to make a beautiful blue, you had to grind lapis lazuli, a semi-precious stone. Very expensive. There are many colors of powdered pigment still available for purists.

    If you let milk sit long enough it will naturally separate into curds and whey. The vinegar just brings on that process quicker. Is the vinegar used only to bring on that separation or is it needed for the actual paint making?
