Title: Half-Crumble, a Primer for a Flexible Support Description: Collado Jareño, Constancio; Domingo Redón, Juan Carlos; Galbis Juan, Amparo; Sánchez-Carralero Carabias, Rafael; Method and formulation for making a half-crete primer on a flexible support for artistic painting, suitable for oil paints. http://hdl.handle.net/10251/16575 Automatic description: This video explains the preparation process for a primer for a flexible support, specifically "half-crete," detailing the steps, materials, utensils, and necessary equipment. Priming is essential for improving the expressiveness and stability of the painting surface and typically consists of a first coat of filler and the primer itself. The half-crete recipe in the video includes rabbit glue, Spanish and titanium whites, purified linseed oil or dammar varnish, and an egg white. The importance of each ingredient and its preparation is meticulously described, highlighting the bain-marie and the need for proper glue expansion. Primer application involves several stages, beginning with a primer on a blank canvas and followed by several coats of primer, carefully integrating the components to obtain a homogeneous mixture. The use of a spatula and brush is recommended for different finishes and textures, and emphasis is placed on maintaining the proper temperature for the mixture and avoiding drying the layers with direct heat to prevent cracking. Finally, the importance of several thin coats rather than a few thick ones and sanding between coats, preserving the uniformity of the back of the canvas, is highlighted. The video concludes by underscoring the relevance of primer not only in academic training but also in professional practice, as it determines the aesthetic accessibility and durability of the painting.
