Wallace Seymour : Beeswax Impasto Medium : 500ml

Description

WallaceSeymour's range of auxiliary materials (mediums, varnishes and solvents) have been selected to combine tradition and innovation. At a time when natural materials have become scarce, expensive and hard to find, WallaceSeymour intends to continue to offer these niche products at sensible prices. WallaceSeymour products are all laboratory-tested and trialled in-house by artists.WallaceSeymour Beeswax Impasto Paste Medium is a blend of bleached beeswax and linseed stand oil. Added to oil colour at a concentration of 10-20%, it adds body and increases the paint's capacity to retain brushstrokes or knifemarks. It also creates a slower tack to wet paint films.Apply to a thickness of 2-3mm maximum. Thick layers will tend to take longer to dry and will suffer increased yellowing/darkening of the dried paint film. Over-addition of beeswax paste to oil colours leaves the dried paint film fragile when exposed to high temperatures (beeswax melts at ca. 60°C).This is a 500ml tub of WallaceSeymour Beeswax Impasto Paste Medium.
