Product Description

Golden Artist Colors, Inc., based in New Berlin, NY, now produces over 160 artist-quality oil colors that originated in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn. These Williamsburg colors are known for their rich pigment and unique finishes, creating a palette that not only offers a range of colors, but also a variety of textures. While maintaining the traditional properties of handmade oil paints, Williamsburg has also incorporated consistent engineering to meet color and quality standards. The result is a full range of lightfast and stable colors.

Exploring the Textures of Williamsburg Colors

Obtaining high-quality pigments is just the first step, as the milling process plays a crucial role in the quality of oil paints. Each Williamsburg color is carefully milled to enhance the beauty, luminosity, and character of the pigments. Some colors may have a slightly coarse texture, while others are exceptionally smooth, showcasing the wide range of traditional texture differences in oil colors. Williamsburg has categorized their artist oil colors into four texture groups:

1. Silky smooth: These colors have a glossy finish and little to no hint of texture. Examples include Cobalts, Phthalo Blues, and Permanent Yellows, Oranges, and Reds.

2. Very fine textured: These colors, such as Williamsburg Cadmiums, are milled to a fine grade to achieve exceptional density and tinting strength while maintaining a smooth consistency.

3. Earth colors with preserved facets: Williamsburg takes special care to avoid over-milling their Earth colors, allowing the pigment to be felt and preserving the crystalline facets of the minerals. This creates a striking interplay between rich masstones and brilliant undertones.

4. Coarse textured: Colors like Brown Pink and Stil De Grain are milled to a coarse texture, providing a chunky or gritty feel. This texture allows light to travel through the paint, revealing rich golden or mahogany undertones instead of heavy, dull browns.
