Personally, I feel that great painting is more a function of who's holding the brush than what the brush was dipped into.

Marvin, really. They were not in production 100 years ago! Qu'un surprize! Were Micheal Hardings available then?
As a long time brush dipper, of probably little regard, I found the loose quality of the paint quite delicious and handled quite differently without the use of mediums and was just passing it along. It was quite different than using the Micheals Harding #2, which, tho' I adore his paints, is getting quite sludge-like.
Marvin you do not have to use it, nor does anyone else.
