FLOURESCENT PAINT, GLOW-PAINT, & SPECIAL EFFECTS : FIRE ,LIGHTNING, FOG, LAZER LIGHTS, 2-FIRE LIGHTS

 Here I am doing a CHALK-TALK on white paper with the SPECIAL EFFECTS of REAL FIRE. In the middle photo you will see a 4 inch white bar above the drawing.  In that white bar are lights and 5 ( $1.00  ) soldering irons to which the FLASH PAPER is attached. It is real fire!!  No ! the paper has never caught fire . And no fire or ashes ever hit the floor.  
  These photos were done with a special camera very quickly as the fire fell.   And if you ask, "Did the carpet catch fire ?"  The answer is , "NO, it did not catch fire! "  The reason the carpet did not catch fire is,   I used a special kind of  "MAGIC PAPER" that magician use called: "FLASH PAPER "   ( available in most Magic Shops for  $3.00 for 20 small sheets.)   This paper is perfect for Chalk-Talks because it burns as it falls about 4 ft. ( the width of my painting )  and then it completely evaporates .  No fire , or even ashes ever hit the floor.     
    In the second photo above you can see ( if you look closely a white bar about 4 in. wide above the drawing.  Inside the 4 in. white bar are special lights and I have a $ 1.00 cheap soldering iron.)  When I push a bottom on my control box the soldering  iron heats up and the tip of the  flash paper attached to the soldering  iron with a few inches of thin wire ignites,   causing the paper to burn and fall at the same time .  It take 1 1/2 minutes for the Flash Paper it ignite and fall with this Soldering Iron.  This is a very dramatic effect for $ 1.50 .  I have 5 soldering irons in that white above my board.  So here we have 5 balls of fire falling. THIS IS DRAMATIC  !!           
          WELCOME TO THE AMAZING WORLD OF INVISIBLE PAINTINGS 

INVISIBLE PAINTING: FLOURESCENT PAINT, NEON-PAINT, GLOW PAINT; FLOURESCENT CRAYONS; INVISIBLE PAINT, INVISIBLE CRAYONS, INVISIBLE CHALK ,BLACK LIGHT

Here we have a color background printed on clothe.  I paint a picture of Jesus face in the clouds with "INVISIBLE CRAYONS"  or a picture of 3 crosses in the clouds with the clear invisible glow paint.
Here, is a composite painting using Flourescent Paint ;Invisible Paint; and INVISIBLE CHALK.
( The white INVISIBLE CHALK is only available from: "TEULING ENTERPRISES"; address: R.D. 1,WOOD RD. MUSKEGON, MICH. 49444. ) This chalk works light the paint:  IT IS WHITE TO WITH LIGHT but changes colors with a black light.  
      INVISIBLE PAINTING can be exciting and sensational.  Above we have 3 examples of invisible paintings. The "STAR" painting  above is completely invisible.  It is painted on the ceiling. And with the lights on it is invisible , the ceiling is all white.....all you can see is a white ceiling.  BUT WITH THE LIGHTS OFF......THIS WHAT YOU SEE!!   How is the possible ?  
      Well,  the paint  is white to white light but IT GLOWS IN THE DARK AND THE WHITE PAINT TURNS BLUE ,,GREEN ETC. when the lights are off.  ( This invisible paint is availble from "GLONATION.COM " TEL. (859) 462-0115--Falmouth, Ky. ) Tell them Dr. Haag told you to call.    
     There are 4 important tools for painting INVISIBLE PAINTINGS : (1) INVISIBLE PAINT- FROM GLO-NATION .COM  ;  (2) INVISIBLE CHALK- "TEULING ENTERPRISES; (3) INVISIBLE CRAYONS--check the internet ; ( THESE ARE WHITE ON WHITE MEDIANS  AND THEREFORE  INVISIBLE. ) (4) But then there are invisible paint that is clear and can be used also with a dark background. THERE IS " CLEAR-NEON" a BLACK LIGHT FLOURESCENT CLEARCOAT available from :CLEARNEON INC. WITCHITA, KANSAS..www.clearcoat.com  .

chalk-art class: FLOURESCENT PAINT, FLOURESCENT CHALK, INVISIBLE GLOW PAINT,, & INVISIBLE CHALK

Here we have several clored backgrounds over painted with FLOURESCENT  PAINT, FLOURESCENT CHALK,  AND INVISIBLE CHALK AND CRAYONS.
    This is a color background over painted with FLOURESCENT PAINT and FLOURESCENT CHALK ETC.   The top picture is white light and the bottom picture is black light.    
     Here we have a color background that was printed a a beach towel.  I over painted it with FLOURESCENT PAINT  and FLOURESCENT CRAYONS  ETC.   THE PICTURE ON THE LEFT IS WHITE LIGHT AND THE PICTURE ON THE RIGHT IS BLACK LIGHT. 
    Here we have a color background printed on an afgan.  I over painted it with FLOURESCENT PAINT AND CRAYONS ETC.  ( BLACK LIGHT-TOP LEFT ; WHITE LIGHT- BOTTOM ). 
Here I am drawing on white paper ( TOP PICTURE ) and using a color background (MIDDLE PICTURE ).
Here is a composite background ( 4ft by 8ft. ) over painted with FLOURESCENT PAINT, CRAYONS,  AND FLOURESCENT CHALK. (IT ALSO HAS AN INVISIBLE PICTURE IN THE MIDDLE- THAT(( APPEARS WITH A BLACK LIGHT. )
Here we are using a foto of a real cave over painted with FLOURESCENT PAINT  ETC.   FLOURESCENT CHALK. And this has a back light effect. ( There are 2- 4ft black lights on the left  side and 2 -4ft. black lights on the right side ). You can see the light on the right.  That gives the picture 160 watts of black light illumination. 
                             Here is the same foto with white light.
      The above pictures are several different kinds of CHALK-ART that I use in the special public presentation that I do every week.  1.  I started out drawing on WHITE PAPER with colored chalk; 2. MANY BLACK-LIGHT  CHALK-ARTIST use BOGUS PAPER.  3. I sometimes draw on a black sheet ( queen size will cover a 4ft. by 8ft. sheet of plywood.) 4. I also use 'PERMANENT COLOR BACKGROUNDS " ON CLOTHE.   
     On these different medians we paint with : 1. Flourescent Paint; 2 Flourescent chalk; 3. Flourescent Crayons, and 4 . Invisible Paint, Chalk, and Crayons.  This produces a DRAMATIC LIGHT SHOW  and has been a very effective outreach .

INVISIBLE PAINTING: FLOURESCENT PAINT, NEON-PAINT, GLOW PAINT; FLOURESCENT CRAYONS; INVISIBLE PAINT, INVISIBLE CRAYONS, INVISIBLE CHALK ,BLACK LIGHT


     THE 3rd LAYER  is painting the colors over the shadows.  And now we move on to THE 4TH LAYER which is : determining the direction of the SUN light.  If the sun light is  coming from the right side of the painting.   Than make that side of everything lighter.  And the opposite side darker.  This another way in which  you put light in the painting.  
     Next we start with THE 5TH LAYER.  The 5th layer is THE FLOURESCENT  paint.  This will light up when the black light is on..  FLOURESCENT PAINT is amost always a little thin.  Doesn't make a good painting without the paint underneath.  But it really can lite up any painting.    
     Above we have 3 examples: 1. On the left we have a landscape painting;        
 2. On the right we have a  beautiful painting color copied on  clothe.  I painted over it with FLOURESCENT PAINT and  FLOURESCENT CRAYONS ( reg, box of 120 Crayons )                      3. We have color copies on clothe ( 4ft. by 8ft. ) which have in the background ,which have been overpainted with  FLOURESCENT PAINT; FLOURESCENT CRAYONS;  and  INVISIBLE GLOW PAINT, CRAYONS, AND CHALK.    
                    
                          WELCOME TO THE EXCITING WORLD OF INVISIBLE PAINTING   

       Here we can see the second "LAYER " compared with the first layer of  black shadows.  As you can see , we have painted over the black  shadows in the mountains with brown etc, paint. We painted the mountains first because we are painting "FROM THE  BACK TO THE FRONT".
And the mountains are the furtherest back after painting the sky.  Next we paint different colors of  green and yellow over the trees.   After that we paint different colors of dark blue and green in the water ( I always mix   DARK "'THELO BLUE" and DARK "THELO GREEN".   This always makes beautiful water when you give a slight tough of white while still wet.  
      Notice, I said DARK GREEN, DARK BLUE,  and the darker the better. The green I use almost looks black coming out of the tube.  GREAT !  that is what you want.  Why ?
      Because not only do paint from  "BACK TO THE FRONT" but in order to get LIGHT IN YOUR PAINTING , YOU HAVE TO START OUT DARK AND PAINT LAYERS OF LIGHTER COLORS ON TOP OF THAT .  THIS ONE OF THE IMPORTANT KEYS TO GETTING LIGHT IN THE PAINTING.
       The last layer will be "FLOURESCENT PAINT", "NEON-PAINT" , AND "INVISIBLE GLOW PAINT."  
                     WELCOME TO THE EXCITING WORLD OF INVISIBLE PAINTING !!

How TO PAINT BEAUTIFUL PAINTINGS THE EASY WAY-FLOURESCENT, NEON, & GLOW PAINTS

     Here, we have the first layer, the shadows painted underneath :  there is black irregular shadows on the mountains,  irregular patchwork shadows on the trees (bottom of mountains) ;  there are irregular patchwork shadows on the dirt hills ( left side and right side ) ; And there are shadows in the water ( bottom center ).   
     This layer must dry completely or it will mix with the next layer of paint and just make a muddy mess. And you will not have depth in your finished painting. 
     One of the main things in a beautiful painting is  ;" LIGHT IN THE PAINTING ".   And this problem of shadows underneath in very important.  In the middle ages,  artist used to start out with a black canvass instead of a white canvass.  And  NOW with the use of  florescent paint, neon paint, and glow paint we will have light in the painting like never before .   The FIRST  layerto having "LIGHT IN THE PAINTING"  is putting the shadows underneath..   The LAST layer  is "FLOURESCENT PAINT "   and  "INVISIBLE PAINT" & "GLOW PAINT."  
                                                   CONTINUED TOMORROW :

ART-PAINTING- CHALK ART- INVISIBLE PICTURES


    Now that we have the right paint, the right brushes , and a great painting to copy from.  Let's begin.      A great artist friend of mine told me 40 years ago, " if you want to learn how to paint, start by copying a painting you like.  As you do you will notice a lot of important things the artist did in his painting.   ( It is usually a bad idea to try a paint from a photograph.)  You can't learn from the artist style of painting.   
     After doing several of these,  then you can do a composite painting : you take the sky from one painting, the mountains from a different painting, and the river from again a different painting.  And you may even make some changes of your own.  You  are copying, but not just copying; .. you are employing some creative license.   The new painting is very different from the ones you were copying from.  The painting above is a composite with creative license .   And it is amazing the pastor agreed that ," THE COPY WAS BETTER THAN THE ORIGINAL PICTURE."  Now  that is the result you want to get.     
     1. You use a pencil to draw the main dividing lines, draw the mountains lightly,  that separates the sky from the land;  then draw the trees  line lightly, that separates the mountains from the bottom of the valley, then draw the water line and /or waterfall.   That separates the trees and land from the water.  
      2.  Now you paint the shadows underneath by carefully painting black shadow on every thing but the sky.   You paint an irregular pattern of shadows on the mountain outline, (remember nature is a master of irregularity ) DON'T PAINT THEM SOLID BLACK !  Paint an patch work of irregular shapes.   Now paint irregular patches where the trees are, and paint irregular   black patterns in the water.  
     3. Now that we have this layer completely dry,  we can paint the next layer. ( If you paint over the black while it is wet,  then it will mix with the next layer of paint and instead of a shadow  underneath you will have a muddy mess. )  And your painting will not have the depth that you need to have a beautiful picture.   If you use oil instead of ACRYLIC  you will have to wait days or weeks for the black to dry.  
     4. Now that the black paint layer is dry, you paint from back to front.  The furthest  thing  in the back of you picture is the sky.  So you paint it first.  Again we need an irregular pattern of blue and white clouds .  It is better to use a lot of different colors of blue.  Remember nature is a master of different colors and shapes.   Make all the trees different shapes and make all the clouds different shapes and  different colors of blue and white.   Be sure to  feather them together so that the colors flow from one to the other.   Do the sky quickly,  don't spend too much time on it.  Then leave it alone.  That is what a commercial artist told me one day.
       
                  TOMORROW WE WILL CONTINUE WITH THE MOUNTAINS !
