Painting Mediums and Varnishes - Sennelier
A509.11 Sennelier Poppy Oil
A509.11 60ml
A509.11A 250ml
A509.11
A509.12 Sennelier Dutch Gloss Medium
As the name suggests, this final glaze medium was inspired by the recipes of the Flemish School painters where colour intensity and detail were magnified. While it can be mixed with oil paint, it is not recommended to add more than 10% to the total colour mix. Excessive thinning with turpentine is not recommended as it will greatly alter the drying characteristics. 34ml tube.
A509.13 Sennelier Turner Transparent Medium
Use this medium in moderation to obtain a silky, luminous effect that is totally transparent . This medium will increase the drying time and workability of the paint on the canvas, and dries to a uniform satin surface, regardless of layer thickness. Although it may be thinned with spirit or turpentine, this should be limited to only 10% of the total colour mixture. Made from a base of cold-pressed safflower oil. 34ml tube.
A509.15 Sennelier Impasto Oil Medium
A natural resin-based medium made from thickened vegetable oil, which allows artists to build up rich impasto marks and textural layers which would be unstable with normal oil paint. The medium couples the firmness of the final mark with a buttery feel in application. While it may be thinned lightly with turpentine, for best results it is recommended to use mixed directly with oil paint from the tube. It should not under any circumstances, be hastened in the drying process with additives or mechanical means, such as hair dryers. Alternatively, the medium can be worked directly over the primed canvas, 'empasto', allowed to dry, then painted over with layers of oil paint, either straight or mixed in any proportion. 200ml.
A509.25 Sennelier Linseed Oil
A509.25 60ml
A509.24 125ml
A509.131 Sennelier Gel Medium
Absolutely clear and non-yellowing gel that does not alter the drying time of work. It can be mixed with oil paint 1:1 to increase adhesive characteristics, avoiding the necessity for retouch varnish when layering. It also assists in the smoothing of undried paint layers. Ideal for textural painters requiring brush-stroke marks that will stay crisp and sharp and where impasto marks are to be retained. 34ml tube.
A509.29 Sennelier Stand Oil
A509.29 60ml
A509.30 250ml
A509.28 Sennelier Venetian Turpentine
A rich honey-like balsam from the European larch tree. This thick medium should be mixed sparingly into oil paint when a jewel-like gloss is required (do not exceed 10% of the total mix). Because it is a concentrate, it may be diluted by up to 20% with gum turpentine. It greatly toughens up paint surfaces and increases the drying rate of final paint layers.
A509.28 32ml
A509.28A 120ml
A509.28A
A509.121 Sennelier Maroger Medium
Named after the famous 1930 curator of the Louvre Museum who is attributed with rediscovering this lost secret ingredient used extensively by the Old Masters, such as Titian, Rembrandt and Vermeer. This expensive medium is very difficult to prepare and takes considerable time to produce an unusual emulsion of linseed oil, mastic resin, gum arabic and black oil. For maximum effect, mix 1:1 with oil paint to make colours richer and deeper, retaining an enamel-like glow when dry. It improves paint handling, since it makes oil colours 'non-migratory', allowing them to remain sharp and clear, standing out from the background. Mix into whites first for tints. 37ml tube.
A509.39 Sennelier Damar Gum
Damar crystals are collected from the Indonesian fir tree and easily dissolved in gum turpentine to make this traditional and transparent high gloss protective painting film which is easily removable. It is often used in many other glaze and medium painting formulas. Available in 250ml quantities.
A509.14 Sennelier Varnish
Dries to a uniform finish.
A509.17 Satin (60ml)
A509.16 Gloss (60ml)
A509.18 Matt (60ml)
A509.14
A509.20 Sennelier Turner Retouch Varnish
Mineral-turps based, this varnish is recommended for restoring luminosity and brilliance to paintings with dull areas and sections which have sunk in colour. In recent years, it has been used extensively as a temporary first coat for artists wishing to exhibit paintings recently completed, but where insufficient time has elapsed (6-12 months) for a traditional hard final varnish like damar or mastic to be applied.
A509.20 60ml
A509.201 250ml
A509.33 Sennelier Mastic Varnish
Similar in characteristics to the popular damar varnish, having an easily removable high gloss film, this product differs in that it imparts a golden glow to the work, evident in many Old Master paintings. It may be diluted with gum turpentine and dries relatively quickly.
A509.33 60ml
A509.34 250ml
A509.34
A509.19 Sennelier Isolating Varnish
Special varnish to be applied after 6 months drying time, which completely isolates the lower layers of the painting from the new work without the problem of the new layers merging or redissolving into the old paint layers. May be thinned with alcohol. 60ml.
A509.22 Sennelier Acrylic Varnish - Matt
Although made from a special acrylic resin and silicone celluloid base, this clear colourless varnish leaves an even matt surface which dries hard and offers excellent protection. May be thinned with turpentine for application. 60ml.
A509.23 Sennelier Acrylic Varnish - Gloss
Same base as the above varnish, but dries quickly to a high gloss surface. 60ml.
A509.35 Sennelier Gouache Varnish
Formulated to combat the delicate surface problems encountered in gouache painting, particularly with the overpainting of several layers, and where protection is required which is not immediately apparent or makes changes to the painting intensity or surface appearance. The varnish is formulated from a colourless synthetic resin and is alcohol-based, giving an even matt surface film. For best results, spray with the mouth atomiser for small works or apply with a brush.
A509.35A 60ml
A509.35B 250ml

A355 Sennelier Artist Quality Egg Tempera
Much has been written about the historical importance of this delicate, but enduring archival painting medium. Capable of the strength and the richness of oil painting, it is also produces the delicate subtlety of watercolour wash, drying to its characteristic satin sheen. Evident in the beauty of icons, Sennelier's century-old formula has proven itself since it does not yellow or deteriorate over time and is an excellent choice for all oil painters as an underpainting base to work up compositions and colours. In the US in recent years, Sennelier tempera has been increasingly adopted by artists wishing to obtain the unique effects of tempera without the problems of solvents and cleanup of materials. Although these products are water-soluble, they dry to a satin finish which is water-resistant.

Painting Mediums and Gessos - Heidelberg
Painting Mediums 1-3
A series of mediums designed around the principles of 'lean to fat', covering the areas all the way from under-painting to glazing.
A513.17 Painting Medium No. 1
A thin fast-drying medium which dries to a matt finish. 500ml.
A513.18 Painting Medium No. 2
For over-painting No 1 medium, but dries to a satin finish. It is often used as a thinner for oil paints when on the palette.
A513.18A 200ml
A513.18 500ml
A513.19 Painting Medium No. 3
This the thickest of the mediums and may be thinned with pure turps. Made from a traditional mixture of damar varnish, linseed oil and white spirit. It dries relatively quickly, is non-yellowing and has a finish of a light gloss. This is the largest selling of this group. 500ml.
A513.06 Glaze Medium
An all purpose glazing medium that can be used at all stages of an oil painting. Whilst similar in formula to the No 3 above, it additionally has good levelling characteristics so has great application for thin glazing effects. These characteristics are greatly enhanced by its fast drying ability. 500ml.
Note: For a matt finish, add a little of our wax medium).
A513.11 Wax Medium
A high quality bleached wax medium containing linseed oil and pure turpentine for the traditional 'encaustic' technique. Its inherent slow drying retains brushstrokes and palette knife marks. For a full matt finish with impasto effect, a little is often added to the thixotropic gel for faster drying but with enhanced pigment richness, giving an enriched background mass-tone normally unique to wax. When used by itself, it is inherently slow drying. It should not be used too thickly as problems can occur involving softening and sagging of the artwork. 500ml.
A513.01 Thixotropic Gel Medium
Out of the tin, this is a 'jelly-like' clear medium with thixotropic ability to set in the form of a brushstroke. Designed for under-painting, it is fast drying and made from a tough drying mixture of mainly linseed oil with some alkyd resin. It can quickly be worked up with a spatula or warmed to a flowing cream consistency and hence can be thinly layered for fast drying layers of rich colour density, without dilution of brightness and contrast. It can also be used a thick glaze medium. Note that it is not intended as a clear oil paint base as it should not be built up into very thick layers. Available 500ml.
A512.531 Damar Varnish
Made from the best Asian damar crystals. A traditional medium used to impart high gloss and often used in formulas for tempera painting. Available 200ml.
A512.13 Clear Oil Paint
This excellent product has been sold for years in bulk quantities up to 20 litres in drums. Note that it contains no driers and hence is neutral to individual pigment selection. Add to existing oil colours of any brand to extend them without fear of muddying up colour or altering tints. It can be used as a medium with greatly increased drying times for wet on wet, or drying can be hastened with the addition of a few drops of terabin driers or a little NWPS Quin alkyd drying resin. Use this as a base to make your own oil paints. Firstly, wet the pigment in methylated spirits, work up with a spatula, add the clear oil paint and keep working as the alcohol evaporates and the paint becomes more viscous. Wax medium may also be added to increase the impasto height and to matt the normally gloss surface.
A512.13 500ml
A512.14 1lt
Use with a vapour mask.
A511.81 Alkyd Resin
Oil modified alkyd resin is a refined and reliable stable product and painting medium similar to stand oil. It has reliably fast drying times compared to linseed oil but being manufactured to an industrial standard, it has the ability to remain consistent year in and out, unlike linseed oil which changes depending upon the type of season and the country of origin. Like stand oil, it is usually added to oil paints and mediums to modify drying and surface characteristics; however, it additionally increases transparency, enrichment and flexibility. 500ml.
A511.073 Acrylic Medium - Gloss
A thick milky medium which can be diluted or used straight from the container. When used straight over acrylic paintings, it develops the richness and gloss level of damar varnish in oils, bringing out the luminosity and mass tone of the pigments. It can be used in all stages of painting and mixed with any brand of acrylic to achieve tints. Likewise, it can be mixed with pigments to make your own acrylic paints. Thinned down, it may be used as a glaze medium. 500ml.
Note: Although this product has a milky appearance, it dries crystal clear.
A511.075 Acrylic Medium - Matt
Similar to gloss finish acrylic medium, but dries with a matt finish. Use as above. 250ml.
Note: Although this product has a milky appearance, it dries crystal clear.
A512.09 Oil Gesso
For the traditional painter and for those requiring the best highly pigmented base for oil paintings when executing the finest detail, there is no substitute for a traditional recipe oil primer. It is made from a mixture of zinc and titanium pigments mixed with bartyes and is particularly suitable as a linen and panel paint base. For bonding an oil painting to its base, there is no substitute to compare with having the same linseed oil base. To extend the life of a painting, it is now recognised that it is best to have an oil primer for oil paintings, since the varying expansion and contraction rates due to temperature changes are matched (acrylic has a vastly different rate to oil). Note that this is relatively slow drying gesso. Available in 500ml tin.
A512.07 Acrylic Gesso - Student Quality
A lower priced gesso with less pigment and a less expensive acrylic binder which still combines a brilliant white surface with flexibility.
A512.01 1 litre
A512.02 4 litres A512.03 10 litres
A519.07 Rabbit Skin Glue
In isolating oil from canvas, several specific recipes and applications are to be found in Ralph Mayer's reference book. Tubs of powder glue - 0.5kg.
A519.07
A511.63 Stand Oil
Polymerised heat-bodied linseed oil, today produced in a closed stainless steel kettle in a vacuum. This increases the oil's viscosity to a honey-like consistency with excellent wetting qualities. A wonderful traditional product that causes colours to flow out, imparting a brush-free gloss. Available 200ml.
A511.571 Refined Linseed Oil
Premium quality oil of light colour and excellent thinning properties. 500ml.

Gouache Paints - Sennelier
A502.55 Sennelier Artist Quality Gouache
Sennelier have always made superior quality gouache, sometimes called opaque watercolour due to its covering power and ability to build up layers. Most manufacturers make a designers' gouache which uses pigments similar to transparent drawing inks, but are mainly only hues of traditional oil paint pigments. Sennelier, however, have always made gouache for artists such as Picasso, Chagall, Miro and Dufy, and have only used the same expensive, high quality pigments present in their watercolours and oils. The range is smaller than watercolour as pigments are selected for opacity. The paint dries to a matt finish and colours are available in 21ml tubes.

Artist Quality Oil Paints - Sennelier
The development of Impressionist painting is almost in parallel with the development of Sennelier oil paints. The evidence of of quality and long-term consistency is visible in most of the world's major art collections where Sennelier paint is present on the canvases of Monet, Bonnard, Chagall, Kandinsky, Modigliani and Yves Klein. In keeping with early manufacturing traditions, the paint of today is highly concentrated without fillers, employing special methods of manufacture. Difficult colours are milled on granite stone rollers and the paint base comprises oil of Carthame, cold-pressed, which gives the paint its specific buttery feel, drying to a satin finish. This does not have the yellowing effect of linseed oil, used as a base by many paint manufacturers.
With its current range, Sennelier has retained many unique colours, such as Genuine Naples Yellow, Madder Lake Pink, Pouzzoles Red and Pink Brown. New hues have been added in recent years such as Chinese Orange and Permanent Intense Red. Available in 107 colours in 34ml tubes as well as 200ml tubes.

Artist Quality Oil Paints - Blockx
This small family-owned company has been making artist quality oil paints since 1865. Jacques Blockx, a brilliant early chemist, was sought out by French and Belgian artists for his advice on pigments and as a response, commenced manufacture of his selection of oil paints. The brand is synonymous with the highest of quality where no compromise is made in their manufacture, either in the cost of pigments or the time for manufacture, for they are still made today on the same slow moving stone three-roll mills that have been used for a century. Amongst the most ardent supporters of this paint have been Rene Magritte and Paul Signac, and of recent times, the technical painting master, Salvador Dali. The concept is that the pigment is not just the colour, but the way it paints irrespective of the pigment and its concentration. The colours have been ground only in cold pressed poppy oil which is around six times the cost of cold pressed linseed oil. Difficult pigments are put through the three-roll mill up to five times to ensure perfect wetting and fluidity with the maximum quantity of pure pigments without a trace of fillers. Many of the colours are unique to Blockx and are a tribute to the vision of the original Jacques Blockx.
Note that Blockx do not make any range other than professional quality. In 1918 the factory employed 14 staff, today they employ only 8, ensuring a semi-handmade quality opposed to mass production paints.
A600.50 Blockx Whites
Perhaps the Blockx range is best known for their whites, as they are regarded as the best in the world. The mixed whites are made from a special ratio of zinc and lead and have been a favourite, along with the Flake White, for portrait painters. The cool Zinc White is more transparent than the intense Titanium White. Remarkable savings may be achieved by switching to the extra large 200ml tubes of Blockx Whites.

All the colours are available in 37ml tubes. Note that colours are priced by pigment and so may appear out of context in pricing, ie. the cobalts which feature in Series 6.

A503.7 Sennelier Watercolour Binding Medium
Traditionally, Sennelier have made this medium for artists who wish to make their own watercolours directly from pigments. Simply add pigment to a small porcelain mortar and pestle, add a small amount of medium and grind for 1 minute, and either pour into your own moulds or into a small glass bottle for storage. Note that the 200ml bottle contains its own preservative to prevent watercolour paint turning sour in storage.

Artist Quality Watercolours - Blockx
A501.20 Blockx Aquarelles
Unlike any other brand of watercolour paint, Blockx traditional recipe has been evolved around a pure clover honey mixed with a small amount of glycerin. The honey acts to disperse the pigment better in water, especially in thin washes, whilst the glycerin slows the drying. This unique combination has for decades given European artists the advantage of high workability in the wet, especially when placing one light veil over another. These watercolours have long been sought after by museums and art galleries throughout the world for art and book restoration, establishing the pigment quality as highly respected and one which has already stood the test of time in circumstances of critical assessment. We recommend these paints be used with plenty of water as, if applied too thickly, drying problems may be encountered. For these special instances, Blockx have produced a new special thick application formula for USA. These watercolours have a different cap colour and are available on a special order basis.
