  8. Three Basic ingredients of paint • Solvent– liquid that controls the thickness or thinness of the paint • Achieve different effects depending on the thickness or thinness of the paint • Thinned down watercolor paint gives off a washed out appearance • Thick watercolor paint gives off an intense appearance • Solvents can also be used to clean paintbrushes and other applications

  10. Different Painting media • Oil-based Paint – first used in 1400’s, it remains popular to this day. Oil paint uses linseed oil as its binder and turpentine as it’s solvent • One advantage of oil paint is that it dries slowly, which allows the artist to blend colors right on the canvas

  21. Different painting media Different painting media • Gouache is similar to water color but has been modified (has larger particles) to be more opaque. Its binding agent is usually gum arabic. You can add egg yolk to gouache in order to create a tempera like look…or just use tempera…it’s cheaper. Lighter tones tend to dry darker and darker tones lighter.
