Key Features & Benefits

• Increases Flow & Transparency: By thinning your oil paints, this medium makes it easier to create flowing, fluid brushstrokes and delicate glazes.
• Enhances Gloss: Adds a beautiful, lustrous sheen to your colors, making them appear richer and more vibrant.
• Extends Drying Time: Ideal for artists who prefer to work with a wet-on-wet technique or need more time to blend and manipulate their colors.
• Resists Yellowing: Meticulously refined to minimize the yellowing effect that can occur over time, ensuring your artwork retains its true colors.

Usage Instructions

This linseed oil can be mixed directly with your oil colors on the palette. Start with a small amount and gradually add more to achieve your desired consistency.

• For Smooth Strokes: Mix a few drops with your paint to improve its flow.
• For Glazing: Create thin, transparent layers by mixing the oil with a small amount of paint.
• Fat Over Lean Rule: Always remember to apply layers with more oil (“fat”) over layers with less oil (“lean”) to prevent cracking.
