This archival-quality medium thins oil paints and decreases drying time. The oil in Chelsea Classic Lean Medium is cold-pressed, purified, and de-yellowed by traditional, natural processes. Lavender gives the medium a strong, sweet smell. Recommended for use in the early layers of your painting while painting fat-over-lean. 

This high-quality, oil painting medium is meticulously handcrafted using formulas based on historic recipes and techniques. No harsh chemicals are used in its production, so it's safer for artists than other oil painting mediums.

 This product contains Lavender Spike Oil Essence, which is a historically documented solvent used since the Renaissance. It is non-carcinogenic and has a strong herbaceous scent. Use in a well-ventilated area, and it may not be suitable for people who are sensitive to strong scents.
