Not all oils behave the same way. Linseed oil offers excellent film strength and durability. Walnut oil dries more slowly, stays flexible, and is less prone to yellowing, making it particularly suited to light colours and glazing work.
Both can be used to adjust consistency, extend working time, or rework areas of a painting. All oils offered here are artist-grade, selected for their purity and long-term performance.
REFINED WALNUT OIL
12.95 EUR
Walnut Oil
A refined, pale-drying oil with a long history in oil painting — particularly prized for its exceptional clarity and its minimal tendency to yellow over time. Walnut oil is the preferred choice for artists working with light, delicate colour palettes.
Key properties
-
Significantly lower yellowing index than linseed oil — ideal for whites and light tones
-
Slower drying time, extending wet-on-wet working sessions
-
Excellent flexibility in the dried paint film, reducing the risk of cracking
-
Suitable for glazing, fine detail work, and soft blending techniques
-
Can be used as a brush conditioner during long painting sessions
Important note Its slower drying rate makes walnut oil less suited to underpainting or initial layers where faster drying is required. In those cases, use it sparingly or consider working lean in the early stages.
