Tradition. The original formula handed down through generations exactly as it had been conceived. Oil plus pigment, period. Faithfully carrying through time the elements required by master painters united in seeking fine execution and quality mediums. Historic tonalities, unattainable mixtures, tints now impossible to find whose roots are in the Italian painting that the whole world admires and extols. Like a force abiding by transcendent principles, flowing through the ages. Artisti still bears the label of the A series that Gianni Maimeri designed in 1923. One hundred and two colours, in a balanced division. Five differently toned whites. Seventeen natural earth tones. Three chrome yellows. No colours with low light resistance. No substance considered harmful is used.

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.

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.

Duo has taken all the handling qualities and the buttery feel of Holbein Artist Oil Colour and made it safer and easier to use. Duo eliminates the odour of solvents in the studio by allowing you to clean brushes, palette, and workspace with soap and water. Because of it's versatility, the possibilities for special techniques and effects using Duo are limited only by one’s imagination.

These fluorescent colours should not be considered permanent. They will degrade with exposure to ultraviolet light. The lifespan of such works can be expanded greatly if they are shielded from ultraviolet light.

Gamblin Flake White Replacement: The first true nontoxic alternative to Flake White. It's the leanest of the Gamblin whites and a terrific underpainting white. Its beautiful opalescent quality is of special interest to portrait painters. Flake White Replacement has all the working properties of traditional Flake White: long ropey stroke, warm colour, translucency and short brush mark. Not only does our FWR come without the lead but it also doesn't suffer from the fast drying time of traditional formulations, which contributes to the cracking of oil paintings over time.Pigment: Titanium dioxide (PW 6)Vehicle: Alkali refined linseed oilLightfastness I, Series 1, OPAQUE

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.

Strathmore 300 Series Black Canvas Paper allows colours to take center stage, letting the artist create dramatic shadows and tones. This bold black canvas-textured paper is great for practicing techniques and making finished art.

In 1985, following extensive research, Old Holland presented a revolutionary range of 168 oil paints, each with the highest degree of lightfastness. Traditional, non-lightfast pigments were replaced with modern lightfast pigments with the same colour characteristics as the traditional ones. Thanks to the highest possible concentration of pigment in each colour, the paint has an unprecedented colour strength. Within the unique range of 168 colours, there is a wide range of opaque and transparent colours, each with the highest possible brilliance (intense) and clarity (clean) characteristics. The only medium used for these oil paints is cold-pressed extra virgin linseed oil, to obtain an optimum oxidisation (drying) of the paint. This increases durability and brushstroke spread. Together, these characteristics result in an oil paint of unequalled quality.

A high level of pigmentation provides good covering power and tinting strength. While it can't match the superior pigment load of Artists' Oil Colour, the Winton range is much stronger than many other artists' quality ranges.The economical cost has been achieved through the use of moderately priced pigments rather than lessening the pigment content to an unacceptable level. Winsor & Newton formulation, manufacture and quality control ensure a product of absolute excellence. The Winton range has a more uniform consistency than Artists' Oil Colour and is slightly stiffer. It offers excellent retention of brush and palette knife strokes.

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.
