Details:
Is a volatile oil obtained by distilling the flowers and stems of some lavender plants along the Mediterranean coast. It has a mild lavender scent and is less toxic. Lavender oil evaporates more slowly than turpentine oil but has strong solubility. Is an ideal oil to thin oil paint, increase color bonding as well as "stickiness" of paint or can also be used to wash pens and clean painting tools.
This type of fragrance oil has similar properties to pine oil but has a higher tendency to become concentrated or yellow due to oxidation. Less toxic and less irritating to skin and eyes than other solvents. Need to be stored in a cool, ventilated place, away from direct sunlight and heat sources because it is flammable.

- Oils: Base of oil paint. Basically, oils (most commonly linseed oil) are used as both Binder and “Vehicle” for oil paints. Paint oils can be added to paint to change the texture of the color layer - adjusting consistency, gloss and drying time. Especially when painting in multiple layers, using oil helps retain the "flexibility" and durability of the color layer in complying with the rule of "fat" on "thin" / thick layer on top of thin layer / oily layer on top. layer with little oil or a lot of solutes/long-drying layer on top of the quick-drying layer, preventing excessive thinning of oil color when using solvents.
- Solvents (Mediums): Used to change the texture of the color layer – adjusting consistency, gloss, flow drying time and texture. Use in sufficient quantity.
Solvents: Used to significantly thin the paint layer. Specially used to wash brushes and palettes after painting. Should only be used when painting the first/lining layers to avoid uneven drying and cracking of the painting.
- Varnishes/ Varnishes: Use as a protective layer after the painting is completely dry (6-9 months or up to 1-2 years depending on the thickness of the paint layer).
