Natural Oil Medium That Enhances Paint and Protects Tools
M. Graham Walnut Oil Medium offers oil painters a non-toxic alternative to traditional solvents and linseed oil. Made from pure walnut oil, this medium improves paint flow, enhances sheen, and slows drying time, giving artists more flexibility when blending or layering. Its smooth consistency supports precise brushwork and rich color application while minimizing the risk of overworking or premature drying. Known for yellowing less than linseed oil, walnut oil is an excellent choice for artists who prioritize long-term color clarity in their work.
In addition to its use as a painting medium, walnut oil is also highly effective for cleaning and conditioning brushes—gently removing pigment without the harshness of chemical cleaners. It works seamlessly with both traditional and water-mixable oil paints, making it a valuable tool across various painting techniques.
