Non-Toxic Oil Painting 

Thank you . I will now attempt to paint in oils for the first time. You made this so simple . Appreciated

Thanks for this video! This makes me much more comfortable about painting indoors.

Thank you!

Beautiful colors!!

Love your channel. So much great information in your videos and such calmness. Thank you for this video on non-toxic oil options. I"m going to use this as my shopping list :) I searched to see if you had a video you on varnishing your finished paintings...how long you wait to do so....what products and techniques you use, but didn't see one. Perhaps you'd consider creating one in the future? Meanwhile, I'll keep going through all your videos. Even if there isn't mention of varnishing in one, each one I've seen is a gem!

Hey Kyle, I was excited to see this video of yours because I've recently developed on allergy to oil paint (it was really bothering my lungs to the point I had to stop) and I have been exploring painting with acrylics which has been fun and has it's advantages but as I researched and tried different things I'm quite sure it's the linseed oil I'm allergic to. I have some of these paints coming tomorrow and I can't wait to see if that fixes the issue for me - it almost certainly has to! I've enjoyed your channel and I'm a fellow artist RU-vidr.

Thank you for this. I have a bird, and birds are exceptionally sensitive to any kind of fumes. Even cooking with non-stick cookware or using hairspray in the house can kill them. That's why canaries were taken into mines as an early warning system for bad air. I am trying to research whether oil is a medium I can use in my house at all, and I'm really hoping that I can some day. (In my studio away from the pets, of course.)

Great video! Am a brand new artist and was wanting to do oil painting but as I started to research and consider solvents and ventilation I was literally seconds away from saying “screw it I’ll use acrylics” lol. But one final google search led me to this video :)

I find that natural terpenes (from citrus peel) work as well as OMS for deep cleaning brushes, and their trace presence in my brush when I go back inside to paint, worries me far less.

Hello, thank you for your videos 🙏 Would it be possible to know what proportion of walnut oil you put between the different layers please? Thank you

Have you ever used poppyseed oil? I hear it doesn't yellow over time. I've also heard that walnut oil isn't archival. Have you tried Weber Turpenoid Natural? It's still a solvent, but I hear good things about it. I also had an idea of making a fume hood type apparatus that sucks air directly above the painting and maybe a second for the brush station. All the exhaust can be routed outside. It would also cycle out the air in the room too.

Hi Kyle! Great video, I'm looking to change my set up for painting to non-toxic as well. Wondering how long your paintings take to dry using the walnut oil as your medium?

how do you throw away that paper towel that you wiped the brush on? Should any extra precautions be taken?

Wonderful video! I really appreciate the info! When using these exact colors and oil, do you still need a fan and great ventilation when painting? Or is it perfectly safe? Thanks!!!

Hi kyle ! Is it possible to use linseed based oil with a Walnut oil medium? I'm very new to oil painting. Thank you !

Super interesting ! Thank you for sharing, can you paint in multiple sessions using this setup or do you have to paint alla prima ? Thank you for your answer

Do you just mix the walnut oil into your paints to get them to flow instead of thinner?

Hey there, why don't you just use water mixable oils?

Can you recycle walnut oil like gamsol?

Do you worry about your rags randomly combusting having dabs on walnut oil soaked in them? I am not sure how careful I am supposed to be...

can i use like a food grade walnut oil or organic walnut oil?
