The difference, and I'm citing the Winsor Newton website is, <br /><br />"The linseed oil and safflower oil vehicles have been modified to allow the colour to accept water, creating a stable emulsion, while retaining the working characteristics of conventional oil colour."<br /><br />So, you can avoid using solvents for clean up but still need to be mindful of getting it on your skin. <br /><br />I've been using the water mixable oils for about 2 years now and get good results although I think I'd be slightly happier with the traditional oils.<br /><br />Thanks for all the great info and love the painting...very powerful color combos!<br /><br />LaurieLaurie G.
