Alkyd paints and mediums are a recent addition to the world of oil paints — a very welcome addition for today’s busy artists! Alkyd resin is an oil-miscible binder with a faster drying rate than standard oils, hence alkyd-based paints dry to the touch quicker than regular oil paints, allowing you to continue your painting without risking damage to underlayers. These Free Video Art Lessons from the World of Art are a fantastic introduction to alkyd paints, and it’s easy to follow and learn right from your living room!
