Schmincke Walnut Oil Refined - 60ml

A pure, light and purified walnut oil. Walnut Oil can be used as a binding component for own-production of non-white oil colours and for painting mediums. The oil ratio very much depends on the type and quantity of the pigment. Walnut Oil is slower drying and less yellowing than linseed oil.

Plant oils are great for loosening up your oilpaint, for blending or glazing. The best oil to use is a high quality Linseed. Although yellowish in colour, Linseed has the best drying characteristics of all the plant oils. Clearer oils such as Safflower, Sunflower, Walnut and Poppy are not good driers, and should only be used sparingly or in conjuction with Linseed. The Old Masters used measurements of “nuts and seeds” for additions to oilpaint, so only add a maximum of 20% oil into your paint or you can have problems with drying, adhesion, sweating & wrinkling. Oil should not be added to your initial paint layer.
