rental Posted April 16, 2007 Share Posted April 16, 2007 i paint with human feces and blood... if you play around with different food consumptions you can get some really amazing hues..... McCarthy's work often involves what looks like fecal matter, blood and mucus. He believes we're taught to be disgusted by our bodily fluids. He sees our disgust as related to a fear of death. His use of body fluids is contrasted with the antiseptic fixation on hygiene that he ascribes to Walt Disney whom he sees as the ultra-right-wing creator of Disneyland.

KILZ FILLZ Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 since there was a bit of a discussion about using hair dryers and heat lamps as drying sources, would drying an oil painting in the sun work well? Also, how long should i expect to wait for an area about the diameter of a coffee mug to dry?(its a bird) the paint is applied fairly thickly on top of an acrylic and spray painted background. it has already been drying for about 12-13 hours. also, is there anything wrong with layering oil based over acrylic? the reason i am concerned is the painting is a christmas present and today is christmas eve. ill post a pic of it sometime tonight if anyone replies by the time i check back. thanks in advance!

foodstamps Posted December 24, 2007 Share Posted December 24, 2007 Is the above guy an american painter? He has that sort of Yale-educated techniqe going. With a guy like Peter Halley at the head of the graduate painting department at Yale, I kind of doubt that the school is still persuing that sort of style, but who knows..

Seph Posted December 25, 2007 Share Posted December 25, 2007 oils are fucking nice, expensive but nice, (of course you can always rack em), also if youre familiar with layers, then you will get some amazing colors and shit, i prefer acrylics though, because they dry fast and i dont have to wait for days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I googled 'how to get oil paint to dry quickly' and this is what came up first. Might seem helpful. http://rourkevisualart.com/wordpress/2006/09/20/how-to-get-oil-paint-to-dry-quickly/ I personally would have used one quarter liquin with the oil mixed, but I don't have any personal suggestions on what to do after the paint has already been applied. I hope everything worked out well for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
