Speed of operation of the roller

With the arrangement of thelandscape oil paintings it is possible to apply paint at a uniform rate and with much less effort then heretofore. It is not necessary to replenish the paint supply to the roller since the pump in the support means for the roller supplies the paint under a predetermined pressure at all times. In addition it is not necessary to press the roller so that it rotates on the surface receiving the application but a drive motor is advantageously provided to move the roller in a smooth operational rate.

In accordance with another embodiment of the invention the paint is actually contained in the handle of the support for the roller and in such cheap oil painting an embodiment the paint is poured into one end of the holder when a cap or cover is removed and it remains in this position during operation. The pump contained in the handle has a suction which extends into the reservoir and the paint is supplied to the roller at a controlled pressure amount.

Control of the flow of the paint may advantageously be effected by varying the amount of paint which is returned from the surface of the roller or by varying the speed of the motor driving the pump which supplies the paint to the roller. Similarly abstract oil painting the speed of operation of the roller may be changed as desired during operation in order to vary the amount of paint which is deposited on the surface during a movement of the roller over the surface.
