I don’t have years of experience with linseed oil paint. This is my first year using it. But I’m hopeful. It behaves differently in application, the promises make sense, and I’ve got some trust in the people who promote and use it, so I’m very interested to see the results.

I have refined #linseed oil from flax oil several times before. One problem I had before was when the sand would get stuck in the screw threads of the jar lid. So this time I am going to use a rubber gasket top jar. #DIYLinseedOil thread 1/

A 3 liter rubber gasket canning jar.

The binder in #oilpaint is simple #linseed oil, when exposed to air, turns into a tough polymer film that binds pigment onto things. I'm going to make a fresh batch now. The process takes a few days, so follow this thread and I will explain my technique. #DIYLinseedOil #traditionalart #blueskyart

A half gallon jar with a water tight lid.
One quart highest quality cold pressed flax seed oil, as fresh as possible.
One quart of clean water. 
100 grams of table salt.
About a cup of clean sand.

藍色小公主《四》; So, this is the last one in the series of this blue princess. It seems there is some chromatic aberration that I need to remove here, but oh well ...

藍色小公主 《三》; the third shot in the series and we are getting closer. I think I was using an extension tube here (probably 36mm with 50mm lens).

藍色小公主《二》; 2nd one in the series, and again shot with 50mm. Not sure though if I've used extension tubes here or not!

藍色小公主 (little blue princess);
A little series I've made for a tiny flower that was blooming some weeks ago. It seems to be a flax/linseed flower. I've tried to shoot it with different macro techniques but I guess most didn't work (and the flower closes in the evening, while I can't work under the sun, so my choices were limited!).

2 oz of #Turpentine
1 oz burgundy #Pitch

With this, [rub onto] new Shoes & Boots in the #Sun with a #Sponge [until] dry.
[Repeat] until fully #Saturated.

Then the #Leather is #Impervious to wet.
The shoes and boots last longer, acquire softness and #Pliability & are the most effective against #Cold.
