Here are some materials I use. If you want to support me, consider purchasing them via these links.

The paints I use are 'Old Holland' from Dutch factory 'Scheveningen'. These have a very high pigment load and are very thick. This way you can add your medium of choice, without thinning the paint too much. I usually get 225ml tubes which saves about 30%. The tubes last a long time, on average I use about 1 225ml tube a year for each color. The set I use, in the actual order I have them on my palette:

My standard medium that I've been using lately, consists of equal parts venetian turpentine and linseed oil:

Some brushes I use: cheap hog bristles for initial lay in, similar to these: https://amzn.to/2VxdYfL, long script liner brushes for details, eg. these Da Vinci ones: https://amzn.to/3a5Q0xb (size 10 or so). Other favorite brushes of mine are Rosemarys bristles, and Talens Van Gogh round ox hair brushes.
