WINSOR AND NEWTON DRYING POPPY OIL 75 ML
01. Winsor & Newton Drying Poppy Oil is a fast-drying, pale oil made from poppy seeds which is well suited for whites and pale colors.
02. It reduces the consistency of oil paints while increasing their gloss and transparency.
03. It also resists yellowing.
04. It is enhanced with driers to increase the drying speed of this naturally slower drying oil.
05. Poppyseed oil is a very pale oil, more transparent and less likely to yellow than linseed oil, so it is often used for whites, pale colors, and blues.
06. It gives oil paint a consistency similar to soft butter.
07. Poppyseed oil takes longer to dry than linseed oil, from five to seven days, making it ideal for working wet on wet. Because it dries slowly and less thoroughly, avoid using poppyseed oil in lower layers of a painting when working wet on dry and when applying paint thickly, as the paint will be liable to crack when it finally dries completely.
