The things I actually use in my artworks…!
The medium you can get from Cobra allows any oil paint to become water soluable! This is a game changer for people who love to paint in oils but dont have the time to clean up or deal with nasty chemicals.

As a cell activator, I only use about 5ml per large painting so a little goes a long way!
