This new medium expands and advances on the formula of the popular clear painting medium. It is used to lubricate the painting process but has a mid viscosity for spreading paint, and wet blending, but it also useful for edge blending wet over dry, and for scumbling and glazing.
The thick painting medium and the middle medium are the key to easier acrylic painting and some artists may use both mediums while others may only need one according to their painting style. Middle medium is best for smooth painting and thick painting medium for ‘more painterly” styles.
