Special travel considerations for those who fly with oil paints (not required for this workshop) In view of the recent threats to the airlines, you will not be able to bring solvents such as terpenoid on the plane. Again, Monica will have solvent available at the studio. Though oil paints and most artist's mediums are not flammable, airport security guards will confiscate them if you try to take them as carry-on. They must be checked with your luggage. Make sure to pack them well and double bag in plastic bags or containers so they don't soil your other belongings if they leak. Since they will not be in the pressurized part of the plane, there is the possibility of bursting as well. BY ALL MEANS, PLEASE CHECK WITH YOUR AIRLINE FOR SPECIFIC RULES AND REGULATIONS REGARDING ARTIST'S MATERIALS. Another option is to ship oil paints and other non-flammables to the workshop destination ahead of time. Contact Monica about this. Here are more travel tips for traveling with oil.
