A Great Alternative to Traditional Oils

The great thing with water-mixable oil mediums is that they offer you an alternative for all the artists who want to get the most out of their oil colours but don't want to have to use solvents. Although solvents are effective, they can be prohibitive if you are painting in a small, enclosed space, as they should be used in spaces which have plenty of fresh air and ventilation. There are some who simply don't like the strong smell or simply prefer a water-based alternative for convenience.

Well, this is no problem today thanks to all the amazing alternatives that we have available. Take a look through the collection and explore the possibilities.

Mediums For Water Soluble Oil Paints

Some of the mediums in this collection are amazing if you want to improve the flow of the water soluble oil paint. Increasing the flow not only tends to go hand in hand with a heightened level of gloss, but it also makes things so much easier if you want to do some fine detail.

You will also find some great products here that speed up the drying time. This allows you to add a new glaze of oil paint in under 12 hours, depending on the thickness of the application and the amount of medium used. There are other water mixable oil mediums in the impasto style which not only speed up drying time but which also bulk up the paint. This means that you can perfectly execute the impasto method as well as use palette knife application.
