The Artisan Water Mixable Oil Colour Set of 20 contains twenty essential 12ml colours made from quality, fine art pigments.Artisan Water Mixable Oil Colour has been specifically developed to appear and work just like conventional oil colour. The key difference between Artisan oils and conventional oils is their ability to thin and clean up with water. Hazardous solvents are not necessary for Artisan oils and artists can enjoy a safer painting environment, making it ideal for artists who share a work space, schools or painting at home.The Artisan range consists of 40 colours and has a dedicated range of 11 Artisan solvents, oils, mediums and varnishes, allowing you to achieve all oil painting techniques.This set contains the following 12ml colours: Titanium White, Lemon Yellow, Cadmium Yellow Medium, Cadmium Orange Hue, Cadmium Red Hue, Cadmium Red Deep Hue, Permanent Rose, Magenta, Dioxazine Purple, French Ultramarine, Phthalo Blue (Red Shade), Cerulean Blue Hue, Phthalo Green (Yellow Shade), Phthalo Green (Blue Shade), Olive Green, Burnt Sienna, Raw Umber and Lamp Black.Please note: due to trading agreements we are unable to ship this product outside of the UK and EU.

There is no water within the formulation of Artisan. The linseed oil and safflower oil vehicles have been modified to allow the colour to accept water, creating a stable emulsion, while retaining the working characteristics of conventional oil colour.Artisan is ideal for:-

Oil painters who are sensitive to, or simply want to avoid exposure to solvents such as white spirit (mineral spirits) or turpentine.

Students and teachers in schools and colleges where the use of oil colour is prohibited because of the solvents.

Artists working in shared studio space where the build up of solvent levels could lead to a harmful concentration of vapours and a generally an unpleasant odour.

Artists who work within a small home environment and wish to reduce the odour of oil painting.

For travel, all Artisan products (Colour & Mediums) can be transported on aeroplanes (subject to the agreement of the airline).

The range has also been formulated with a high proportion of single pigments for brilliance of colour and clean colour mixing. The most suitable oil and methods for dispersion have been selected to bring out the individual characteristics, from opacity to natural transparency, of each pigment in the Artisan range.

Pigment classification : Benzimidazilone PR175

Colour index number : 12513

Lightfastness : Lightfast pigment according to ASTM category 1 and 2

Opacity/transparency : Opaque

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.

Originating from the Williamsburg neighbourhood of Brooklyn, each oil colour is milled in small batches to bring out the best qualities of the pigment used. Williamsburg's oil paints have gathered an international presence while preserving the handmade integrity of the paint. Tubes are available 37 ml and 150 ml sizes. This is a 150ml tube of Williamsburg Oil Paint in Permanent Red-Orange.

Hansa Yellow Medium: Its masstone is very similar to Cadmium Yellow Medium but semi- transparent. Clean, bright tint. Use in place of Cadmium Yellow where higher key tint is desired. Also Hansa Yellows' transparencies make them useful for mixing cleaner, brighter secondaries.Pigment: Arylide yellow (PY 74)Vehicle: Alkali refined linseed oilLightfastness I, Series 3, SEMI-TRANSPARENT

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.

Cobra Water Mixable Oil Colours provide a perfect oil paint result with a uniform drying time and degree of gloss. Painting with Cobra paints is much like painting with traditional oils. The paint can be applied using all the usual oil paint techniques. The colour, as well as the brush stroke or applied texture, retains its full expression after the paint has dried; the paint remains as it was when applied.

Traditional production on three roll mills

A spoor (0.5-1.5%) of the finest bees wax as one of the ingredients gives the colour the famous buttery and short consistency and makes the colour-film less brittle for the restorer. The binders are only pure vegetable linseed and sunflower oils in special 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.

R&F Pigment Sticks are handmade in small batches, carefully milled and molded. Only the basic traditional materials are used: natural wax, linseed oil, and pigment, and only used with absolute purity. Pigment Sticks are the only brand of oil sticks that employ only natural waxes (beeswax & plant wax). This allows for a minimum amount of wax. This results in softer consistency and greater paint film strength.

R&F Pigment Sticks let you get rid of the distancing factor of a brush and hold the paint right in your hand. The surface, the paint, your hand and your ideas all come together. The different effects you can get with these luscious sticks will amaze you.
