so much brilliant information clearly taught thank you
Amazing class!! I've learnt so much! I was making the oil paints, but very new to acrylic paints making, and surprisingly it's almost the same - just a different binder. Also I was experimenting with the watercolour paints and find them more difficult, because they turn up more like a gouache. Maybe I'll stick with making a gouache paints. Also want to try to make the acrylic gouache. I guess adding the acrylic medium to my gum Arabic and calcium carbonate will make it acrylic gouache. So excited to make more interesting colours, too!! And the easiest and most satisfying is my own golden metallic paints, which I've started with in the first place. I sometimes also just add some extra pigment to the ready made paint to alter their colour - for example adding some silver to the gold will make it champagne colour, which I like more. Thanks again!
