Williamsburg Phthalo Blue Oil Colors, 37 ml Tube, Professional for Artists

Product Description

Golden Artist Colors, Inc., based in New Berlin, NY, produces over one hundred and sixty artist-quality oil colors originally from Brooklyn’s Williamsburg neighborhood. Renowned for their deep pigmentation, Williamsburg colors offer not only a spectrum of hues but also various textures. Each color has its unique finish and tactile experience, providing artists with a true palette both in color and physical feel. While retaining the traditional qualities expected from high-end hand-made oil paints, Williamsburg ensures consistency in engineering that meets both color accuracy and quality standards. The entire color range guarantees lightfastness and stability.

The Textures of Williamsburg Colors

The journey to achieving exceptional oil paint begins with sourcing the finest pigments; however, much of the quality depends on the milling process. Each Williamsburg color undergoes meticulous milling, designed to enhance the pigment's beauty, luminosity, and distinct personality. As a result, certain colors may be somewhat coarse, while others boast an exceptionally smooth texture, preserving the traditional scope of texture variations in oil paints.

Williamsburg Artist Oil Colors fall into four texture categories. The silky smooth colors exhibit a glossy finish with minimal texture detectable. Among the very fine textured options are Cobalts, Phthalo Blues, and Permanent Yellows, Oranges, and Reds. The Cadmiums offered by Williamsburg are finely milled to produce colors with remarkable density and tinting power, yet they maintain a smooth feel. Meanwhile, care is taken with Earth's pigments to avoid over-milling, allowing their inherent features and crystalline aspects to shine through. This results in a captivating contrast between rich masses of color and vibrant undertones.

In contrast, some colors like Brown Pink and Stil De Grain are milled coarsely, providing a chunky, gritty texture that permits light to penetrate the medium, revealing stunning golden or mahogany undertones rather than just muted browns.
