Answer:

Oil Paint

Step-by-step explanation:

Thick application of paint was a defining characteristic of impressionist art and therefore the emergence of oil paint was very important to the impressionist movement. Many impressionist artists, particularly Renoir, modified the viscosity of the oil paint with turpentine.
