I'm still debating whether to give regular oils a try again. I usually use Cobra water mixables with their thinner and other mediums, and I do like them. I've been kind of curious about M Graham oil paints though. I stopped using traditional oils because they made me feel sick rather quickly after starting to paint. I'm not sure if it was the paints or the solvent. I wondered about the M Grahams because they use walnut oil in place of solvents.
The M Grahams seem to be more readily accessible so I was thinking of giving them a try. They're reasonably priced as well. I wondered if anyone here uses them? Any pro's and con's I should know about? What is their consistency like? Do they feel smooth or sticky? How do the walnut oil mediums perform?
I may still stick with Cobras as I do enjoy them. The Graham's being more accessible is appealing though. Seems you can usually buy them in stores whereas Cobras have to be ordered online since my local store closed. My main supplier of Cobras has gotten quite expensive as well... So I may need to switch as I run out. Some of the non-sale prices have gone up to $70 a tube!
Thanks for any input!
