Product Description

Originating from the Williamsburg neighborhood in Brooklyn, Golden Artist Colors, Inc. produces over one hundred and sixty artist-quality oil colors in New Berlin, NY. Renowned for their rich pigmentation, Williamsburg colors not only offer a diverse palette but also present various textures, with each hue showcasing a unique finish and feel.

The full range of Williamsburg colors is designed to be both lightfast and stable.

Textures of Williamsburg Colors

The initial selection of high-quality pigments is only the starting point; the milling process significantly influences the overall quality of the oil paint. Each Williamsburg color undergoes meticulous milling to reveal the pigments' beauty, luminosity, and individuality. Some colors have a slightly coarse texture, while others are remarkably smooth, preserving a wide array of traditional textural variations.

Williamsburg Artist Oil Colors are classified into four texture categories:
1. Silky Smooth: Glossy with minimal to no texture.
2. Very Fine Textured: Includes Cobalt, Phthalo Blues, and Permanent Yellows, Oranges, and Reds.
3. Fine Cadmiums: Milled to a fine grade, exhibiting exceptional density and tinting strength paired with a smooth texture.
4. Coarse Textured: Examples like Brown Pink and Stil De Grain provide a chunky feel, enabling light to illuminate golden or mahogany undertones. This results in a captivating contrast between rich masstones and vibrant undertones.

Product Availability

Williamsburg Oil Colors come in multiple sizes, including 37 ml and 150 ml, alongside various traditional sets and mediums such as the Williamsburg Traditional Set, Landscape Set, Extender Medium, and Titanium Oil Ground.
