A matte, opaque mixture of marble dust and polymer emulsion that is used to build heavy textures and three-dimensional forms on flexible or rigid supports.

This medium enhances the workability of Liquitex Acrylics on fabric. It controls bleeding in transparent designs and gives a smooth, consistent flow of paint.

Thins acrylic colors to proper consistency for airbrush or spray techniques.

A water-based cracking medium. Apply over a base coat and under a contrasting colour of water-based paint.

Allows artists to reopen a paint layer even after being touch-dry. Once the paint is reopened, new paint can be blended back in, existing paint edges can be feathered or whole sections can be removed with a rag. Can also be used to further extend wet blending time.

The most useful medium for extending drying time. Very useful when painting large works because it gives an artist time to work without the paint drying too fast. It also allows thinly applied paint to remain workable. Even paint which feels dry to the touch can be reactivated with water for reblend...

Atelier Slow Medium should used with Interactive. Retarder should, in our experience, only be used as a 10% addition to your water spray in extremely dry conditions.

Previously sold as Matte Medium & Varnish, Atelier Matte Varnish gives an even matte finish with maintaining colour intensity. Can be mixed with acrylic paint as a fluid medium to dilute the paint, toughen layers and reduce gloss.

Previously sold a Gloss Medium & Varnish, Atelier Gloss Varnish gives a vibrant gloss finish. Can be mixed with acrylic paint as a fluid medium to dilute the paint, toughen layers and increase gloss.

Used to fix layers of paint fast especially when wanting to achieve multiple layers of glazing. Also useful when you want to reinforce a tender layer in preparation for scratch back and scraping techniques. Returns Interactive to a more conventional acrylic.

Can be used to prevent runs in diluted paint applied vertically on an easel. It is used with the paint to dilute the viscosity and blend colours. This medium allows paint to spread over a surface for more blendable gradations of colour and fast glazing techniques.

Use for pouring applications applied horizontally. Dries clear, glossy and flexible and if mixed with colours increases transparency of the colours used. This medium is useful for poured puddles and if poured onto plastic sheeting can be peeled of when dry to make acrylic skins which can be collaged onto an artwork.

Gamblin Cold Wax Medium is a mixture of natural beeswax (wax pastilles), Gamsol Odourless Mineral Spirits and a small amount of alkyd resin. This versatile medium can be added directly to oil colours as a painting medium, used to modify the surface quality of Gamblin Galkyd painting mediums, as well as used alone as a matte varnish.

Walnut oil effectively removes color from artists' brushes and is a natural vegetable oil that does not evaporate or remove essential oils from the artists' brushes. The addition of walnut oil to color will slow drying, enhance flow and increase sheen. Our walnut oil medium is compatible with other artists oil colors and mediums.
