Hi oil painters! Have you ever wondered what to do with that sludge that collects in the bottom of your container of solvent? Well, it is just pigment and solvent, and the pigments can be reclaimed. If you let the solvent evaporate then you can reclaim the pigment, mix it with an oil binder, and make your own paint. Artist Shelly Banks will show you how easy it can be. Reclaimed paint is often a muted grey that is useful for under paintings and very handy to grey-down colours for backgrounds and atmospheric effects. This colour can be a great addition to your neutral palette for future paintings.
