When I first started using the water miscible oils I would use thinner, Turpenoid to thin the paints for toning the canvas. But I was getting headaches after painting so now I just use water and occasionally use the WN mixable painting medium. It takes awhile to get used to it, but it works fine for me. Winsor Newton has a few mediums and I think they just came out with a thinner specifically for the Artisan line. http://www.winsornewton.com/products/oil-colours/artisan-water-mixable-oil-colour/artisan-thinners-oils-mediums--varnishes/ Thanks Bill!

I have found that just using water does not yield satisfactory results. By the way, your paintings are wonderful. Thanks.
