Water, the best liquid for painting


Water, the best liquid for painting



The plain water is the simplest and the most versatile liquid for all the media.
When I say that, I am also including oils.

For water color, the water is the mixable medium and it is quite self explanatory. When
using the water with acrylics, one can water down the paint substantially with water and
bring the same effects as you would in water color and in fact use that effectively.

Now, water soluble oil paints have been used and one of them is “w Oil”. These are available
in art supply stores or on line art supply stores. Even stores like Michael’ s and Joann’s
carry them and if you are really interested in painting in oils, this is non toxic and
easy to clean with water but  they are oils.

Water can also be used with inks and special effects. I love to work with watered down paints
for my special effects.
