Each colour is ground to enhance the beauty and luminosity specific to that particular pigment. Some colours will feel slightly gritty; others extremely smooth. Pigments are ground in pure, premium, alkali-refined and PH- balanced linseed oil and made in batches no larger than five gallons at a time. This provides total control over the product, much like the late nineteenth-century French colour makers. All the materials are hand measured, and every ounce of paint is scrutinized. The paint is packed in 37 ml and 150 ml non-reactive aluminum tubes. Larger quantities of paint are packed in aluminium cans using only the purest materials.

A low odour solvent which evaporates slowly, increases blending time and is suitable for thinning oil colours and cleaning brushes. Suitable for oil & alkyd colour. Well suited to artists who prefer to avoid exposure to turpentine. Please note, we cannot send by air mail anything which is hazardous and above 250ml; anything flammable or toxic; any aerosols, unless by special order. Please note: due to trading agreements we are unable to ship this product outside of the UK and EU.

Sublime brilliance and intensely deep colours

Optimal colour strength due to the highest possible concentration of pigments and very fine grinding

Highest degree of lightfastness

Very pure colours and greatest durability of the paint coat

Michael Harding Refined Walnut Oil dries at the same rate as linseed oil, but it does not yellow as much. Michael Harding use it as the binder for their lead whites where the brightness of the colour demands the clearest possible oil binder, without compromise on production costs. Use it to thin whites and to bring out the brightness in other colours.The use of walnut oil in paint can be traced back even further than that of linseed. When 15th century artists began to add oil to their tempera colours it was walnut oil that seemed the obvious choice. Jan van Eyck in Flanders and Antonello da Messina in Italy both knew of its handling properties.

Traditionally crafted and triple-milled in England, Georgian Oil Colours provide colour consistency from wet to dry and an even performance and finish across all colours.

With a smooth and buttery consistency, Georgian Oil Colours are ideal for experimenting with different brush and knife techniques. They are intermixable and have high pigment loads, including traditional pigments such as cadmium and cobalt. Georgian Oil Colours generally require very limited quantities of medium, so they can be used straight from the tube. All colours are lightfast and rated as Excellent (****) or Good (***). The surface is typically dry in 4 to 5 days.

Terre Verte

PG23. Fast Drying. Transparent. Excellent Drying. Average Oil Content. Green Earth, a complex of Ferrous Silicates in Aluminium and Magnesium clays, is one of the few naturally-occurring inorganic pigments still to be offered by colourmen. It has a very soft texture with very low tint power, beloved of portraitists who use it as a glaze over Alizarin Crimson hues. Some makers add other pigments in order to give it a spuriously enhanced tint power which annuls these qualities.

PY31. Average Drying. Opaque. Excellent Lightfastness. Low Oil Content. TOXIC.

Sometimes known as Barium Yellow, this is Barium Chromate, introduced into painting after the Lead Chromates, circa 1820. Unlike them, it has proved to be permanent and non-reactive. By itself a sick looking, acidy yellow with weirdly green overtones, its low tint power facilitates mixes with Magenta and the cooler reds, producing beautifully modulated greys sought in certain passages of flesh painting.

PR 188. Average Drying. Semi-Opaque. Excellent Lightfastness. High Oil Content.

A well-established organic pigment, Naphthol Red HF3S, which can be used transparently or opaquely according to choice. In unmixed state it is a pure and slightly fiery red with high tint power, and a range of yellowy-orange undertones, which become very noticeable in hues, which produce much brighter and warmer pinks than are attainable with the Cadmium Reds. When mixed with Zinc White these can appear almost fluorescent.

PG7 & PBr7. Fast Drying. Semi-Opaque. Excellent Lightfastness. High Oil Content. Sap Green is a generic name for a rich deep green.

Unbleached Titanium Dioxide

PW6.1. Fast Drying. Opaque. Excellent Lightfastness. Low Oil Content.

Before Titanium Dioxide is refined to make it white it contains a measure of Iron Oxide, which gives it a subtle linen or limewash pinky-brown shade. As well as making it a good drier, such a presence makes this paint an ideal ground or underpainting colour, with good texture and a lean surface. Some painters use it as a mixing agent in flesh painting.
