I lay out my oil paints on a white rectangular laminex 'plate' called a palette.( See photo).
I mix my colours in the centre. Every portrait ends up with different
variations of colours mixed and to simplify things so I don't have to
throw away paint and remix colours every day I cover each in gladwrap
and freeze them. The paint stays good for weeks that way.
I have all 3 palettes used at the moment
- one left over from the portrait group , one from my last demo and one
from my last portrait so I had to clean them all down to get a clean
one to start Country Tide. I have to brush kerosene on them and leave it
for a while to soften any dried paint and then I scrape it off and
clean the palettes with a rag.
I was feeling a bit whoozy and realised the kero was getting to me as I needed to open the door to get airflow..ugh..
All done so now I can put out my Oils to start.
