Mediums (some of these are discussed in further detail in "Materials, Mediums and Set-Up" in the Continuing Education Membership). A drying medium for oil paints and a cleaner are required for starting. Neo Megilp is recommended as a drying medium (see more in Viscosity- Oil for one way to use this medium). Gamsol or a paint thinner is necessary for cleaning brushes.

  • Cold Wax (Gamblin) for texture
  • Galkyd (Gamblin) to increase drying rate or for glazing

  • Gamvar (Gamblin) varnish
