What is a Medium?

Any liquid which changes the consistency of the paint it is mixed with may be classed as a medium. Winsor & Newton Galeria Acrylic Mediums are designed specifically for use with acrylic paints, and range from thin glaze to thick impasto mediums, with a variety of choices in between.

Why use a Medium?

By changing the properties of paint, a medium extends the possibilities of how an artist works with the colour, and affords a plethora of exciting techniques and effects.

Winsor & Newton Mediums Finder provides an easy, interactive method of choosing the correct medium, for the artist to achieve the desired effect.

Why choose Winsor & Newton Galeria Heavy Structure Gel?

 All Winsor & Newton Galeria Mediums are fully intermixable, and can be layered or mixed on the palette, allowing the artist to fully explore both the textural and visual properties of Acrylic Colour. Smooth and flexible, Galeria Heavy Structure Gel can be mixed with acrylic colour to increase transparency and structure, without the addition of texture particles. Heavy layers are easily and quickly built, and are prevented from appearing artificially plastic by the satin finish of the medium.

How do I use Winsor & Newton Galeria Heavy Structure Gel?

Mixed with acrylic colour, Galeria Heavy Structure Gel can be applied with a brush or a knife. The following videos show some techniques for working with Heavy Structure Gel, and the effects that can be created:

I use this like Mod Podge. I need to invest in a larger tub of this. I am eager to try this brand, as I usually go for liquitex.
