Description

Impasto Medium is used for thicker oilpainting techniques to stabilize thick brush strokes, and for knife-painting, thickening the consistency and drying the colour faster.

Impasto Medium enhances the natural tone and buttery character of an oil colour; accelerates drying and supports the thorough drying of thicker oil layers. There is no change of the product quality based on the colour change of the raw material stand oil.

To be mixed into oilpaint at 10% to a maximum 30%. Always use a palette knife to mix your medium thoroughly into the paint.

ABOUT SCHMINCKE
Schmincke began at the end of the 19th Century, when the colour chemists Josef Horadam and Hermann Schmincke saw an opportunity to provide the artists of the day with a truly superior artists oil, and so set out to Italy where traditional studio painting was still taught, in search of the nearly forgotten resin oil formulations.
In 1881, at the Academy of Fine Art in Florence, they secured the precision formulations of the Professor Cesare Mussini, a guardian of the old masters techniques, and on these formulations, the two founded their manufacturing establishment under the name H.Schmincke and Co.

In subsequent years, artists’ colours to suit all techniques were introduced, such as Josef Horadam’s patent watercolours of 1892. Through the entire 20th century, every generation of owner has lead the company to its current position as one of the worlds leading manufacturers of finest artists’ colour.
