Each Oil Painting Must Haves Set includes
- one two oz. Gamsol,
- Refined Linseed Oil,
- Cold Wax Medium,
- Galkyd Lite – þurrkefni
- and Gamvar Gloss and a
- 37ml Solvent-Free Gel.
- Gamsol is the safest solvent that allows artists to work in traditional and contemporary techniques without compromise. It can be used to thin oil colors and painting mediums, and for general studio clean-up. This 100% pure odorless mineral spirit is reusable and non-toxic when used as recommended.
- This refined linseed oil is the palest of linseed oils. Adding it to colors increases flow and slows dry times. Use sparingly or mix with an equal amount Gamsol to create a traditional slow-drying, low-viscosity painting medium.
- Cold Wax Medium is made from naturally white, pure beeswax. Formulated to knife consistency, it makes oil colors thicker and more matte. It can be used to make Gamblin mediums and Gamvar more matte. It can be also applied alone as a matte varnish.
- Galkyd Lite thins oil colors and increases transparency and gloss. When used in moderation with oil colors, it is more fluid and less glossy compared to Galkyd. Thin layers will be touch-dry in 24-30 hours.
- Gamvar Picture Varnish saturates and gives greater depth to the colors in your painting and gives your work a unified and protective matte, semi-gloss or satin surface. Developed in collaboration with the National Gallery of Art, Gamvar goes on water-clear, stays water-clear and can be easily and safely removed with Gamsol. It is virtually odorless and ready to apply. It can be applied when the thickest areas of your painting are thoroughly dry and firm to the touch.
- This solvent-free gel medium gives colors more flow and transparency yet holds the shape of your brush mark. It has a moderately fast drying rate and increases gloss. Made from safflower oil and alkyd resin, it is non-toxic and contains no Gamsol or petroleum distillates.
