Norma Blue Water-Mixable Oil Paint by Schmincke - Mini Review & Comparison

[@lophoflora]

You can mix traditional oils and watermixable oils in the same paint and you don’t tell a diference, as long as you don't use water. I started in oils with watermixables and I found that I don't need to use water, and don't need solvents either. 😅😅😅 Now, I use my watermixables remaining stock for studies and outdoor. They seem to dry more quickly. Probably because they are cheaper than the top lines may contain a little bit of dryers, or is because of the modified linseed oil.

Also, Can you in the future try Holbein Artist oil colors and compare to the vernet? Sorry if I am requesting a lot, I like to share several ideas i get

Oil and water mix if you use a surfactant. That’s why you can wash oil from brushes with soap and water.

Can you compare genuine manganese blue with Golden artist acrylics Manganese Blue hue? If you ask, I'm sure they'll send you a sample for a video. I'm curious how similar it is.

I don't see the purpose. Acrylics hold up forever.. oils are great too. Not enough pigment in acrylic, they'll take powdered pigment to strengthen them if not opaque enough. Golden is supposed to be good. Solvents..just don't get it on you & ventilate. If your so afraid of something, don't do it. Don't try to alter it, & ruin it on others. I like turps, linseed that smells..natural hair brushes.

Sorry if I am requesting too much. And don't feel the need to say my name. I don't mind if you don't
