To support its extensive line of Handmade Oil Colors, Williamsburg offers a complementary line of tradition-based mediums and other essential painting tools. Alkyd Resin — Similar in consistency to a thick Stand Oil, this medium is made from pure alkyd resin and a small amount of odorless thinner. Cold Pressed Linseed Oil — Extracted through pressure alone, this genuine, Damar Crystals — These crystals are used with turpentine in the traditional production of a Damar varnish. They're also useful for making an encaustic medium. Impasto Medium — Made from inert, precipitated chalk and barium sulphate ground in linseed oil, this Lead Oil Ground — This is a traditional ground made from pure lead carbonate and just enough marble dust to achieve the desired amount of tooth and absorbency. Lead Oil Ground is a heavy, thick formulation. Linseed Oil — This is a genuine linseed oil, pressed from flax seeds. Used as a drying oil, it forms a tough, resilient film on paintings. Pure Beeswax Blocks — Blend with oil, resins, and diluents for use as a painting medium to impart a satin or matte sheen. For encaustic painting, use the blocks as a binding medium.

Rabbit Skin Glue — Made from genuine rabbit skin, not hides or hooves, Williamsburg Rabbit Skin Glue is a traditional size for fabric support on panels. It seals porous fabric and isolates it from grounds or oil paints. Stand Oil — This Sun Thickened Linseed Oil — Unlike many brands, this product is not artificially thickened. Williamsburg makes its Sun Thickened Linseed Oil using a long, slow, traditional process that exposes the oil to sunlight only during the spring and summer months, for a period of several weeks. This is a viscous, Titanium Oil Ground — This is a Wax Medium — Made from pure beeswax, Damar resin and refined linseed oil, Wax Medium contains no paraffins or microcrystallines.
