Textures of Williamsburg Oil Colors

The journey to achieving high-quality oil paint begins with selecting the right pigments, but it is the milling process that significantly enhances quality. Each Williamsburg color undergoes meticulous milling to highlight the beauty, luminosity, and unique character of its pigment. While some colors may present a slightly coarse feel, others achieve an exceptionally smooth finish. This array maintains the traditional textural diversity endemic to oil colors.

Williamsburg Artist Oil Colors are categorized into four distinct texture groups. The first category features silky smooth, high-gloss colors with minimal to no texture. Among the very fine textured options, one can find Cobalts, Phthalo Blues, as well as Permanent Yellows, Oranges, and Reds. The milling process of Williamsburg Cadmiums delivers a finely graded product, resulting in colors that possess outstanding density and tinting strength, all while maintaining a consistently smooth application.

In contrast, for many Earth tones, care is taken to avoid over-milling. This approach allows the pigments' natural characteristics to shine through, showcasing the crystalline qualities of the minerals. It creates a captivating interplay of rich masstones alongside vivid undertones. Some colors, like Brown Pink and Stil De Grain, are milled to a coarser texture, providing a chunky or gritty experience. This allows light to filter through the medium, revealing elegant golden or mahogany undertones instead of merely conveying heavy, muted browns.

Available Williamsburg Oil Colors

Within the offerings, Williamsburg Oil Colors are available in 37 ml and 150 ml jars, with specific sets like the Williamsburg Traditional Set and the Williamsburg Landscape Set. Additional products include the Williamsburg Extender Medium and Williamsburg Titanium Oil Ground, catering to artists' varying needs.
