Casein painting

 

Casein paint is a type of paint that is made by mixing pigments with a casein-based binder. Casein is a protein derived from milk and has been used as a binder in paint for centuries. This type of paint is known for its versatility and matte finish. It can be applied to various surfaces, including wood, canvas, and paper. Casein paint dries quickly and has good adhesive properties, making it suitable for a wide range of artistic applications. It can be used for both opaque and transparent painting techniques and is often favored by artists for its smooth and matte texture.
