More Offgridlife Claymation Series
Today was the second day at Billy's studio working on my @offgridlife Offgridlife Claymation series of oil transfer drawings.
See the first batch and get general info here. Most will be part of The Camden Market Free Art Man street giveaway, which is itself part of FREE ART FREES ART. Each day I'm at Billy's studio, I make a set of around twelve oil transfer drawings based on a pencil drawing. I did the pencil drawings a few weeks ago, there's about ten of them. Once the ten sets are dry, I'll scan them. By this point there'll be so many of them, I might make a book out of the scans.
I'm at Billy's every Monday, so unless I can get some more done at home, this series will take at least a couple of months.
The photo above is the source drawing used to press the oil on to the paper. I use both sides so get mirror images of the original. The transfer drawings will be glued on to cardboard with PVA and Advertism. Unlike my acrylic paintings, I won't PVA glue over the top as I don't want a gloss finish on these and PVA on oil in general, although Google says is possible, seems dodgy to me.
I wonder about the oil pressing . Do you use the same technique as with acrylic paint? A gel plate and paint?
It sounds odd to me as well to add pvc on oil paint.
All the best, you have a lot at hand.

The method I use for oil is different from acrylic, mainly because oil stays wet for long enough to use a pencil to add pressure. With acrylic, I press the paper down within a minute or so and quickly rub the back of the paper with my hand.
These are awesome
