Application:
Acrylic Painting applications:
Generally used as an impasto/texturing material that is painted over when dry.
Enables you to build massive, impasto areas in a painting either before commencing to paint or at any stage in the painting process.
It has a similar flexibility to paint and does not need medium added when applied to canvas.
May be used as a pigmentless gesso on neutral white surfaces, such as paper.
Excellent for roughing up a painting which is becoming too slick. Modelling Compound provides a good tooth for glazing techniques.
For even rougher textural effects, simply add sand, sawdust, etc.
Oil Painting applications:
Atelier Modelling Compound can be used for under-texture in oil paintings, but as it is waterbased, it must be applied before the oil paint.
