Daler-Rowney Georgian Watermixable Oils: The Future of Oil Painting
Oil painting has long been beloved for its rich textures and vibrant colors—but traditional oils come with solvents, fumes, and messy cleanup. Enter Daler-Rowney Georgian Watermixable Oil Colour, a revolutionary alternative that delivers professional-quality results without the hassle of toxic chemicals.
Why Choose Watermixable Oils?
1. No Harsh Solvents Needed
Unlike traditional oils, which require turpentine or mineral spirits for thinning and cleaning, Georgian Watermixable Oils can be diluted and cleaned up with just water. This makes them:
✅ Safer for studios, classrooms, and home use
✅ Eco-friendly with fewer volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
✅ More convenient—no need for specialized ventilation
2. Professional-Grade Pigmentation
Don’t let the "watermixable" label fool you—these oils pack the same high pigment load as traditional Georgian oils, ensuring:
🎨 Vibrant, long-lasting color
🎨 Smooth blending and layering
🎨 Excellent lightfastness (resists fading over time)
3. Works Like Traditional Oils
-
Mix with water or water-based mediums for thinning
-
Use traditional oil techniques (impasto, glazing, wet-on-wet)
