Plastisol colour Blending technique Painting

Abstract

The objectives of this research were to study materials and tools using for Plastisol colour blending painting, in this case materials were canvases and tools were brushes, and to study blending techniques and qualities of Plastisol colour, and created painting according to the results of study by researcher. Data collections were observation and experiment. The results were accumulated in the tables and discussed. Statistics used were IOC, Likert scale, Means and Deviation. The research results revealed that 360 grams natural fiber canvases were appropriated, and brushes made of natural bristles including Round, Flat, Angle, Fan and Rigger were used. The softness-hardness of the bristles was medium. Painting techniques included four stages in process. Pre-painting process, referred to mixing primary colours, created Secondary colours and Tertiary colours, and prepared white, gray and black. Painting process, included 2 methods, the first method was Alla prima technique together with Blending, Soft edge and Dabbing, the second method was Layer painting techniques done after the first layer had dried, they were Brushwork, Broken colour, Impasto and Sgraffito. Post-painting process included leaving the painting about 1 hour so that the body colour would be half dry and matt as well as blowing hot air temperature of 250°C, with first speed blowing. After the body colour was thoroughly dry, the painting would look glossy shiny. Cleaning process, included cleaning up tools and equipment with turpentine and dishwashing liquid. The quality assessment of Painting created by the researcher in the aspects of painting techniques consisted of Colour mixing techniques and Colour values created techniques. The dry finished painting and the research findings applications were at the highest level quality in overall image.
