Refine, Enrich, and Extend Your Oil Painting Workflow

Winsor & Newton Artists’ Painting Medium is a versatile, slow-drying gloss medium designed to enhance the handling and appearance of oil paints. Formulated with a blend of linseed stand oil and petroleum distillates, this medium reduces viscosity and improves flow, allowing for smoother application and seamless blending. Its extended working time makes it ideal for layering, glazing, and detail work, while the glossy finish adds depth and vibrancy to your colors. It also helps eliminate dull patches through the "oiling out" process, restoring richness to uneven areas of the paint film.

More than just a flow improver, this medium dries to a flexible, durable film that resists cracking and wrinkling over time. It’s carefully crafted to minimize yellowing, helping maintain the long-term clarity of your work. Whether you’re refining subtle transitions, enriching tonal depth, or achieving a smooth, brushstroke-free surface, Artists’ Painting Medium delivers the control and enhancement professionals need for expressive, lasting results.
