I Use a scale to measure my paint, and mediums. It is more accurate and consistent to use a scale and way faster! Digital Kitchen scale Amazon Affiliate Link: http://amzn.to/2vwkrK4 Little plastic cup for each color and medium mixture. Little plastic cups are great if you are saving leftover paints. (I purchased mine at a local Restaurant supply store called Cash and Carry-- It is open to the public- no membership required) You can use small paper water cups if you are not going to try and save the paint. Paper cups will fall apart more quickly. You will also need some craft sticks and a pair of gloves to to make it easier to keep your hands clean. On to the Recipe! Put your cup on the scale press the button to set the scale to zero and follow the measurements as you add each item to a cup for each color. All of the colors were mixed in a ratio of 4 parts Medium to 1 part Paint. For this project I used: 20 grams of Sargent Art Gloss Medium and Varnish and 5 grams paint. To make it flow better I used 1-3 grams of water stirred in well. There's no silicon oil or torching in my projects as I really worry about the possible side effects of heating the acrylic paints and the materials they are made from. I'm also concerned with the possible issues down the line with the paint not forming a good bond with the surface because of the oils preventing proper adhesion. We all have to weigh the pros and cons of how we interact with our art supplies. Experimenting can be exciting and beautiful, but there can be consequences we don't know about yet. As with any thing in life be informed by reputable sources and your own common sense. :) I have a creative spirit that loves to explore and experiment with all kinds of Arts and Craft! I hope you have fun while you join me on my creative adventures!
