I am enjoying using this solvent and not feeling ill (I do even with odorless mineral spirits) so this is a great addition to my multi-media kit, and I feel better using something that is eco-friendly.
I was given a gift certificate to Natural Earth Paint and didn't realize there were safer options. I have tried their acrylics in a tube and they work great. I'm so happy to have found this alternative. And the staff were very helpful when I had a glitch that I created with the order.
Been waiting for this natural gesso for a long time. It goes on smoothly and performs beautifully. Love it!!!
I love Natural Earth acrylics. It gives me peace of mind knowing that I am no longer dumping pollutants in the water system or inhaling toxins.
As a first-time user of this product, I have to say I’m disappointed. After about five hours, the surface of my painting is still noticeably tacky. I understand that drying time depends on factors like humidity and the thickness of the application, but I’m working in a climate-controlled studio and applied a normal, even coat with a brush.
I’d recommend doing a test before using it on an important piece, as the other mediums I regularly use dry much more quickly under the same conditions. I’m hopeful it will fully cure within the next 24 hours, but based on this first experience, I’m hesitant to use it again.
