Charvin Gums and Resins Surely the use of many of these items is for the artist seeking to duplicate the mediums and varnishes of the old masters. Although many modern equivalents are available and may indeed be better in some cases; the look and feeling of a piece of art is again very dependent on the exact nature of the materials used by the artist.
We urge you to seek out the information which in many cases can be found by searching on the internet. When a formula strikes your fancy you can be assured that the Charvin product is the purest and truest form of that product allowing you to create unique mediums and varnishes for your own artistic pursuits.
Finally most artists are not static and we urge all artists to experiment with different media, different qualities of paint and even palettes of color, brushes and painting tools, surfaces and primers and finally additives like mediums and varnishes for the final presentation of the work itself. Although some of your experiments will leave you bewildered, it is the few happy surprises that will enrich your paintings and make them your own. |
