Professional Oil Paint for Artists: Williamsburg Naples Yellow Italian, 37 ml Tube

Product Description

Hailing from the Williamsburg neighborhood in Brooklyn, over 160 artist-quality oil colors are crafted by Golden Artist Colors, Inc., located in New Berlin, NY. Williamsburg colors are remarkably rich in pigment, with each shade offering a unique finish and feel, not only presenting a variety of colors but also an array of textures. These oils possess the traditional characteristics expected from fine, handcrafted oil paints while benefiting from more consistent engineering that aligns with established color and quality standards. Williamsburg provides a comprehensive spectrum of lightfast and stable colors.

Exploring the Textures of Williamsburg Colors

Obtaining the right pigments is merely the first step; the milling process significantly contributes to the overall quality of the oil paint. Every Williamsburg color undergoes meticulous milling to enhance the beauty, luminosity, and character of its pigments. While some colors may exhibit a slight coarseness, others showcase an exceptionally smooth texture, thus preserving the diverse traditional range of texture variations found in oil paints.

Williamsburg Artist Oil Colors are categorized into four distinct texture groups:

1. Silky Smooth: These glossy hues boast minimal to no visible texture. Among the very fine-textured colors are Cobalts, Phthalo Blues, and Permanent Yellows, Oranges, and Reds.
2. Exceptional Density: Williamsburg Cadmiums are milled finely to achieve remarkable density and tinting strength without compromising a smooth consistency.
3. Earthy Colors: Many Earth tones are carefully managed to avoid over-milling, preserving the distinct feel of the pigment and the crystalline characteristics of the minerals. This technique creates a captivating contrast between rich masstones and stunning undertones.
4. Coarse Textures: Some colors, like Brown Pink and Stil De Grain, are milled to a coarser texture, resulting in a chunky or gritty sensation. This allows light to permeate the paint, revealing rich golden or mahogany undertones instead of flat, muted browns.
