Eco-House - Pure Walnut Oil
Pure Walnut Oil
Thins oil colors to a smooth, self-leveling finish
Walnut oil thins paint without the sharp fumes of turpentine or the yellowing tendency of linseed. This cold-pressed medium extends open time substantially, expect 4-5 days before touch-dry, giving you room to blend wet-into-wet, adjust values, and refine edges without racing the clock. The oil's natural self-leveling properties help brushstrokes settle into smooth, even films that minimize visible streaking, particularly valuable when glazing or working alla prima techniques where stroke texture needs control.
Eco-House cold-presses this walnut oil without heat or chemical extraction, preserving the pale, nearly colorless quality that won't shift your color mixing or darken over time like some traditional oils. It dries through oxidation rather than chemical driers, forming stable, flexible paint films that resist cracking as they cure. Use it straight from the bottle to thin paint for glazes, or mix with stand oil and damar varnish for custom mediums. The extended working time suits portrait painters and anyone building complex color relationships through direct observation. Clean brushes easily with soap and water while paint remains wet, reducing solvent dependency in the studio.
