Gel Mediums

Many accomplished and beginning artists use gel mediums. Some of the gel mediums available in this category are manufactured by Golden, Maimeri, Pebeo, Rheotech, Lascaux, Liquitex and others. Among these top-grade gel mediums, artist may choose Maimeri Acrylic Dense Gel Medium. This is an acrylic glazing medium that is colorless and high viscosity. When this medium is used, it improves the color flow as well as resistance resulting in a smooth, silky texture. Another great product is Gloss Gel Medium used to give improved depth, transparency and brightness to colors. It can be mixed with products such as Sennelier Matte Gel Medium in order to produce a satiny effect. Gloss Gel Medium dries rapidly creating a finish that is non-cracking, water-proof and transparent. There are other products such as Gloss and Matte Gel Mediums that will extend color and help create impasto glazes as well as textures. These dry to a clear finish and will not yellow over time.
