More About Kit Contents
Gamblin Cold Wax 16oz
Gamblin Cold Wax Medium is a mixture of natural beeswax, Gamsol odorless mineral spirit, and a small amount of alkyd resin. The term “cold” in Cold Wax Medium and Cold Wax Painting refers to the fact that heat is not required for working with this wax medium – as it dries by solvent evaporation (Gamsol), rather than the cooling of the wax, as in encaustic painting. The Gamsol evaporates out of the medium and polymerizes with the fatty acids in oil paints to form a durable, matte surface.

Titanium White, Ivory Black, Hansa Yellow Medium, Ultramarine Blue, Alizarin Crimson, Sap Green, Cadmium Red Medium, Cadmium Orange, Burnt Sienna, and Transparent Yellow Oxide

3 R&F Sticks

Turkey Umber Green (transparent, for powerful marks and mixing)
3 Ready-To-Paint Surfaces

4" Brayer & 6" Squeegee
Our exclusive SP CREATE 4” brayer and 6” squeegee. The ‘workhorses’ of our every day cold wax painting.

The 6″ Squeegee is good for basic techniques on a variety of different paintings.
Liquitex Square-Tipped Palette Knife
This is the knife we use. The flat tip and sides allow for a good paint load, fast mixing, and controlled scraping without gouging. The blade and shank are one solid piece. Unlike the cheaper, welded ones, we’ve never had one break.

50 Sheets to get you started. You may want to switch to a glass or acrylic palette as you move forward.
