Water Soluble Oils 101
Do you love the working time of oils but hate the toxicity and fumes of solvent thinners? Water-mixable oils might be the perfect balance for you. These are real oil paints that can be mixed with water, mediums or natural oils. If you work in a space without good ventilation or are sensitive to solvent thinners and turpentine, water mixable oils can give you a fume-free oil painting experience!
