Hi, I am the son of two artists and began painting in my hometown of Richmond, Virginia before I could walk. I was a rare combination of artist and athlete so I moved to Los Angeles in 2008 to play football for USC. I left the team my sophomore year to focus on painting and filmmaking, applying the same focus and discipline from my football career to my art. I primarily work in oils, and spend most free days painting "en plein air" in my new home of Sarasota Florida.

I’m just a novice painter, started with acrylic and wanted to learn oil, so I’m no expert here but I wanted to recommend the W&N water mixable thinner. I use both the Holbein and W&N water mixable paints and thought I could just use water. As someone who was just learning this caused a great deal of frustration. I have found that the thinner works way better for me. I do have the W&N water mixable linseed oil too, but I haven’t used it yet. Clean up is great, I simply use warm soapy water (dish soap) with a silicone (?) make-up brush cleaner that suctions to the bottom of my sink. I do use inexpensive brushes and they don’t appear to be getting torn up, but I really don’t paint with oils very often. So happy I found your channel. It has been really helpful!! Thanks so much!

WMO are standard oils with an additive. You can buy that same additive in medium form to make your own regular/favourite oils into WM oils. It’s made by Schmincke and is called ‘Medium W’ - it works by mixing 2 parts oil to one part Medium W. There’s probably other mediums by other companies available now that do the same, but Schmincke was the first and the one I remember.

They ARE oil paint. I found the best way is to use a wmo medium, and/or wmo thinner. Once you use regular linseed oil you can’t clean your brushes with just water. So I think it pays to go WMO all the way. Paint, medium, thinner etc.

Hi Coach, I've noticed that Water mixable oils work best on acrylic gesso. By contrast, oil primed surfaces can bead up if there is a lot of water in the paint. Seems like the slightly absorbant acrylic gesso allows better coverage in the first thin layers. Have you noticed this with thin washy layers?
@BarbrajoanOriginals

You can use oil paint over acrylic gesso, but you can’t use water soluble paint over oil. I learned that the hard way.

I just like traditional oils and because of the massive amounts of mediums for oils that are established you can do crazy textural things, extend dry time or shorten it etc. You get a lot more leeway than just water I find even with the weird water soluble mediums that are out there it’s different. Plus most professional grade paints that are heavily pigmented and just plain nice they don’t make water soluble versions I’m pretty sure like Vasari etc.

@kacielandisart

For me personally, I started painting with traditional oils in art school (and I’m sure most do bc they don’t know water soluble exists at first). And oil painting can be pretty expensive to get started so once I had all my colors, I didn’t want to reinvest in getting all my colors in the water version. But now that I know I can use them together, I may start to slowly convert to water soluble as my older tubes run out.

I found that if I did thin with water (before I knew better) the colors would have a dull look once they dried. I use food grade walnut oil from the grocery store for my medium. I quit regular oils after another bout with pneumonia. No need to risk my lungs around thinners. Water soluble oil paint also comes off your clothes in the wash. I use Windsor and Newton and Cobra. If you use food grade walnut oil, use organic. Someone told my friend they used a cheap one and the painting rotted. I have never had problems using organic. Or use Windsor and Newton artist walnut oil or water mixable medium.

I read somewhere if your surface is primed with gesso or oil, the water mixable when it's thinned down will sometimes "run-off" or it will not cut through the surface, so the fix is to dip your brush to a bar soap "any soap" then to your paint!

Hey Coach, There is a great product to add to this process.It allows you to add REGULAR oil paints and this medium which makes oil paint into water miscible.It can also be added to water to make a thinner. They also now have a gel medium that does the same thing. So this allows you to not invest in another system but you can use all your favourite oil paints and change to water miscible if travelling or just want the convenience.It is Schmincke Medium W. I love this and the gel for regular oil paints. Love you channel 🇨🇦

I’ve been using Cobra WMO. You can use water to thin the paint instead of mineral spirits according to the manufacturer (Royal Talens) in the Netherlands and in their videos . I started with Winsor & Newton but found they were student grade and had too little pigment and so switched to Cobra which has the same amount of pigment as their Rembrandt line. It is a nice buttery, creamy consistency.

Is there any other way to be able to reactivate the paint? Thanks a lot in advance!

Wicked info coach. I use water soluble oil paint the like watercolors. I thin them with water and once the water dissipates, I am able to move the paint if I choose to.

That's great alternative as I too am allergic to oil paints and the solvents.

Need some help here. I just switched to water m oils . Now I know we can paint oils on an acrylic primed canvas but my question is should I apply water or linseed oil to the dried canvas before starting actually to paint? ?? Thank you!

To do a large painting on canvas can I use acrylics for the first stage, then complete the painting with water soluble oil paint on top of the acrylic?

Just to be clear. I can finish very old oil paintings with water based oil paint?

I would think the solvent free gel would stand in for the Turpentine. There is water mixable oils : linseed, safflower etc. Thanks for the video!

For practicing or study purposes, will using the water soluble oil on a paper cause water-based warping?

Chris, thank you for the video. I tried oils and the smell was too much for me. Can you offer a comparison of the smell of the water soluble oil to regular oils?...Like, no smell to mild. Does the Gamblin product you demonstrate have any smell too? I use Liquitex acrylics and mediums and I don't smell them. Turpentine gives me headaches. Thank you very much.

Is the Gamblin solvent free gel cleanable with water like the water mixable mediums?

I went with Cobra water/oils. No question they are a quality paint. If I had decided to stay with oils I would stay with Cobra. They are virtually no smell and act just like oils. I have gone back with Golden OPENs for reasons of drying time and they don't smell either. Because of my painting environment in my house not smell is a priority. Don't get oil painter that are using the likes of Liquin solvent and such. Oils by themselves are too much smell, Liquin is off the charts. It will make your paint dry fast but.....I would tell someone go with the water/oils. You really don't need to be breathing solvents.

I've never even touched oil paint, but I've been wanting to get into it for a long time. Do you recommend water mixable oil paint for a complete beginner? I'm realizing how expensive oil painting is, so I'm just tryna cut down the cost lol. I figure this would be cheaper than buying a solvent.

Sanaa The Great I would say they are about the same cost. I use the wmo now, but worked with regular oil paint for a long time. I find these water mixable are so much easier , and no smells, no toxic fumes.

Hey! Just wanted to let you know that I'm new to oil paint as well, all I've ever painted with was acryl, which is why I wanted a similar easy cleaning process. I'm currently practicing with the Lukas Berlin oil paint and all I can tell you, WMO really is the better option for beginners!

Hello! Just found your channel and loved the great information. I just bought a set of water mixable oils for the reason that drying time is too quick with acrylics for what I want to achieve. How long is the drying time with these? Thanks!

This was a really good video. So...is there a downside to using the water mixable? Or is it just personal preference? I bought some and am hesitating to use it but i dont know why. I don't have any sensitivities to using regular oil or solvents I kinda like the smell of gamsol....hahaha
