Now Showing at Carlos Jiminez Gallery!

I have some pieces up at Carlos Jiminez Gallery, 2301 W. North Ave, Chicago. Link to gallery:

In the window is Seethe, with Arisen and Goldscape in the background. He also has Soothe and Wispus, and wants some new pieces with a warmer overall color scheme, so that's my next challenge.

I'm working on a series of acrylic paintings that look much better when wet (with water) than when they dry. I'm looking for a high gloss varnish to use to capture and preserve a very WET look. Does anyone have experience with different brands and types of varnishes or offer other suggestions?

Dear Dion, its a old news. But I'm a developer of light conducting colours and I can say to you the best trick in the world in the case of a thrree-dimensional wet look or deepening effect.

But it is a completely new working method and you must pay any moneye for new colors. First you must look at www. targetcoatings.com - TargetCoatings. Its a little company with its owner Mr. Jef Weiss. He produce one of the best waterborne varnish in the world for instruments and ships interior, any of these are brushable like the PU 9300. Into such a WB varnish you can disperse the fluids and the mediums of the Golden Artist Color company so that you receive "hard" artist colours.

This surfaces can be gribbed and be polish to a plane surface. Next step is to lay a second varnish in 2 compound quality as a higher optical density on that colors. At the end you result a layer lens system in two different optical densities. One of the best varnish for second layer is the PPG Deltron Clear Coat. Perhps in the meanwhile they might have a automotive ultra-clear waterborne varnis. The varnish must not be sprayed but you can pour it out directly on the first waterborne varnish with opaque or transparent colours. But after drying you must gripp and high-end polish the PPG varnish. That is a lot of works and you need a good condition. In this way you result a very clear color surface which can react against the room ligt. Its schining like a mirror because stray light is transformed into alligned light.

Best regards from Berlin and Cologne.
