Paper for Oil Painting

Hi Everyone!

I learned about this while I was in Maine, though Michael (my instructor) explained how to make it yourself using etching paper, a sizing medium and gesso.

This is all done, and the paper is archival which is important if you happen to create a masterpiece.

Besides the description, check out the video.  Very interesting, especially the use of pastel with the oils.

Keep on painting : )
