Painters Tip
Painting With Caseins
Casein is a very old medium. Casein (kay'seen) is a quick-drying, aqueous medium using a milk-based binding agent, and is one of the most durable mediums known to man. Nine thousand year old Casein cave paintings have been discovered in Asia, and later, the medium was used by Byzantine, Roman and Renaissance artists including the Old Masters.
I have been using the medium on location for a few months. They’re very versatile, allowing loose, impressionist brush strokes and very tight detail. They clean up easily with water, and the palette cleans with water as well. Just a paper towel with water will scrub the palette clean.
There is one problem I have had with caseins. They do not varnish evenly. Some areas remain matt and others shiny. The can be buffed if you wait for about week.
