Hey everyone! I decided to redo my Oil Painting Mediums video to clarify and simplify a couple of points. In this video I talk about the most common oil painting mediums you will encounter, what they are, and how they work.
In this video I cover linseed oil (refined and cold pressed), stand oil, alkyd mediums like Gamblin Galkyd, Galkyd Lite, and M. Graham Walnut Alkyd, walnut oil, and solvents.
These are mediums which you may see featured in other instructional videos I make.
This video was made with a Nikon Z6 camera, internal microphone, and edited in Adobe Premiere CS6

Mineral spirits has some of the same problems as turpentine. Also, one of the qualities of turpentine is that it can hold a hard edge where is mineral spirits has a tendency to produce a softer edge. When, using turpentine, make sure you using pure gum, spirits of turpentine, and not under any circumstances, steam distilled turpentine.

Thank you.

Great info: complete and to-the-point. Thanks. I use no spirits but I do add a tiny bit of walnut alkyd for the ébauche. The polyester resin gives it a firm dry, but drying time is slower so I alternate several paintings at once. I'm more concerned with long term health impact (me, my pets,...) than with building up anintolerance to gamsol.

One of my instructors LOVES Gamblin Neomeglip medium. He is a very experienced portrait artist and likes to revisit/paint his paintings the next day so that works for him. I tried it outdoors, en plein air, but the paint seems to take a day or two to dry. It is similar to the traditional 50/50 mix of Linseed Oil and Gamsol Odorless spirits. I prefer Liquin Original as it dries to the touch in 24 hours. Just a comment for the comparison.

@ralphhancock7449 2 года назад

Galkyd is probably alkyd plus 40-45% Gamsol. Galkyd lite is probably alkyd plus 45-50% Gamsol. I deduced this based off of the MSDS info for them.

@ralphhancock7449 2 года назад

@@UncleJunior52 Yeah, just a tad difference in the proportion of gamsol.

@ams9449 Год назад

this seems like a negligible difference in percentages, so I think that you deduced something wrong.

As you present each item pick it up at show us that don't just keep them in the line when we just looking at all of them at once that some people are trying to really understand you

Thank you for the explanations :-) !!! Great video! 👍🏼

@madeleine363 3 года назад

Good video. Thanks watch at 1.5 speed if you are intimidated by the 22 min or just prefer faster talking :)

@chumnutzly 2 года назад

that's what I always do lol

@jamesmonroe3043 3 года назад

I read the opposite regarding refined linseed oil (how it yellows less than cold pressed).

@CustardBustard 2 года назад

Yep, refined = slower drying but less yellowing than cold pressed, this is my understanding.

@irvynroxas4254 Год назад

I have tested the refined linseed vs cold pressed by WN the cold pressed dry faster and yellowed less than refined linseed. Contrary to what was advertised.

@jamesmonroe3043 Год назад

@@irvynroxas4254 Were they both the same brand? What is the time frame for your test? Thank you for this info!!!

@irvynroxas4254 Год назад

@@jamesmonroe3043 Yes from the same brand Windsor and Newton. July of 2021. With Titanium white both linseed performed well after a year but with Lead white the cold pressed linseed yellowed less And drying time is faster with colored pigments.

@irvynroxas4254 Год назад

About to test Gamblin cold pressed against Windsor/Newton's. Cheers!
