Yeah same I switched to watermixable oil paint completely when it comes to underlayers but also with complete alla prima paintings. They're just.. amazing. My twinsister is an artstudent in the Netherlands and she says they are also developping new recepies very quickly. It can only get better it seems. Very fun because Leonardo Da Vinci was even onto something when he tried to make watermixable oils himself. Glad I'm in the era that we have them available in tube!

Hello. Just now catching your video a year late 😊 and you may have already discovered that you CAN mix Cobra WM oil with traditional oil…but to retain water mixable quality the ratio must be 2:1 (2 parts Cobra to 1 part traditional oil). Great for artists with a previous investment of oils but considering switching to WM 😊

If you like water mixable oil paint, try other brands as well. I have Cobra, Daniel Smith, Schmincke Norma Blue, Holbein Duo. Of these brands, I think I like Schmincke and Daniel Smith the most.

@@miaelleart761 The WN water mixable oil paint is student grade. I see that you have a tube of Schmincke Norma Professional. If you like Normal Professional, you will definitely like Norma Blue, which is identical to Norma Professional but water mixable. For a long time, Holbein Duo was considered the best professional water mixable oil paint. It is still amazing, but there are so many options today, and choosing one is a matter of preference.

Hello .My name is John Higgins and I have been painting with W&N Artisan paint for the past 5/6 years and have been very pleased with the results and the ease of use. Recently I have purchased some other manufactures water mixable for the different colors available eg Cobra Greysh Blue and Naples Yellow Light and Danial Smiths Qinacridone Gold . I then proceed to buy a full range of Cobra water mixable oils but I am very disappointed with them. My biggest gripe is the difficulty in mixing them and the very quick drying time. Mabie I am doing something wrong but I have very satisfactory results with the W&N paint. Should I be using more water/painting medium ? I will be returning to my Artisan paint unless I get some help with my problem.
