Williamsburg Flake White Oil Colors, 37 ml Tube, Professional Oil Paint

Product Overview

Originating in the artistic Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn, over 160 artist-quality oil colors are now produced by Golden Artist Colors, Inc. at their facility in New Berlin, NY. The Williamsburg line is renowned for its remarkable pigment richness, as each hue presents its unique finish and texture, resulting not only in a vibrant color palette but also diversifying textural experiences. Although these oil paints possess the traditional qualities expected of fine hand-crafted products, they also benefit from consistent engineering to meet high standards of color fidelity and overall quality. Williamsburg boasts a comprehensive selection of lightfast and stable colors.

Exploring the Textures of Williamsburg Colors

Achieving quality oil paint begins with acquiring the right pigments, but the milling process greatly influences the final product's excellence. Each Williamsburg color undergoes meticulous milling to enhance the beauty, luminosity, and distinctive personality of the pigment. Some colors might exhibit a slightly coarse texture, while others feel velvety smooth, showcasing the various traditional textures associated with oil paints.

Williamsburg Artist Oil Colors fall into four texture categories: 1. Silky smooth and glossy colors, with minimal to no textural hints. 2. Very fine textured colors, such as Cobalt, Phthalo Blues, and Permanent shades of Yellows, Oranges, and Reds. 3. Cadmium colors that are finely milled, striking a balance between exceptional density and tinting strength alongside smoothness. 4. Earth colors, where we carefully avoid over-milling, allowing the pigments' characteristics and crystalline aspects to shine through, resulting in a captivating interplay of deep masstones and vibrant undertones.

Several Williamsburg colors also exhibit a coarser texture, including Brown Pink and Stil De Grain. These chunky or gritty colors permit light to penetrate the vehicle, revealing rich undertones of gold or mahogany rather than merely presenting heavy and dull browns.
