Thanks for the info. Michael. Someone once told me that Venice turpentine was a "secret" of Vermeer's...and that is how he made those little dots of light so interesting. However, I never tried it and do not know if this is true...what do you think? Possible?

To what medium are you adding Venice turpentine? And in what proportion?

I've found stand oil to have an "enamel like appearance." How does this compare to Venice Turpentine?
