Water mixable Oil Paints

However, unlike traditional oil paints and techniques water mixable, or water miscible oil paint as it’s also known as, handles differently depending on the application. For example, it starts to feel and behave like a watercolour when heavily thinned with water, allowing you greater freedom to play around and explore different painting styles.

At the other end of the scale, when used as a short paste without water for heavy impasto work for example, it tends to develop a consistency that is tackier than a normal oil painting would do, giving you more options to experiment with texture and style. In between the two extremes, water soluble oil paints tend to act like gouache, sharing the properties of both transparent watercolour and opaque oil paintings.

As such, this new medium is an exciting addition to traditional techniques and styles of oil painting and will help you progress along your art journey, regardless of whether you are a newcomer to the art scene and are just starting out on your journey, or if you’re a seasoned pro who is used to painting with oil.
