<p>How to thicken <a href="https://www.union-rise.com/oil-paints-12-x-12ml" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">oil based paint</a> to match the thick painting technique of oil painting? Thick-coating technique refers to painting with thick pigments, and the thick-coating technique retains the marks of brushes and toning.</p><p><br></p><p>The following methods can increase the viscosity of the pigment.</p><p>1. Remove part of the oil in the paint:</p><p>Extensive use of oil paints is the most obvious way to thicken. However, oil paints dries slowly, the paint reacts with air to harden (and shrink over time), while the underlying color will still remain moist. This may cause cracks and wrinkles on the surface when the paint dries. The more you rely on paint thickness, the more unpredictable the final result.</p><p><br></p><p>Important note: The easiest way to remove some of the oil in the paint is to squeeze the paint onto a piece of newspaper (paper shell) a day or two before you start painting. The oil in the paint is absorbed by the cardboard and becomes a thick, pudding-like. If the top layer of the paint is conjunctiva, the outer layer can be removed and the paint can be used.</p><p><br></p><p>2. Increase the drying medium:</p><p>Adding dry matter, such as sand and marble powder, to the pigment can increase the thickness of the pigment. The pigment will show a different texture and lose a lot of luster. Coarse gravel (such as sand) will show up in the paint, making it look brittle. Fine powder, such as marble powder, will increase the elasticity of the paint. In the thick painting method, when the paint is not dry, you can use a thicker color to overlay the painted color. Oil paint dries slowly, and the thickly painted color can be scraped off or over-pressed at any time during the painting process. The purpose of thick coating is to highlight the key points and shape the texture. The stacked three-dimensional entities give the oil painting a thick appearance.</p>
