Williamsburg Professional Oil Paint for Artists, Brilliant Yellow Pale, 150 ml Tube

Product Overview
Originating from the Williamsburg neighborhood in Brooklyn, Golden Artist Colors, Inc. has expanded its production of over 160 artist-quality oil colors to New Berlin, NY. These Williamsburg colors are distinguished by their richness in pigment. Each hue showcases its unique finish and texture, offering more than just a vibrant palette; they also provide a distinct tactile experience. Although Williamsburg oil paints exhibit the classic working properties expected of fine handmade oil paints, they benefit from consistent engineering standards that ensure uniformity in color and quality.

Texture Characteristics of Williamsburg Colors
The journey to creating high-quality oil paints begins with the selection of the proper pigments. However, it is primarily the milling process that significantly impacts the overall quality. Williamsburg colors are meticulously milled to reveal the vitality, luminosity, and character inherent in each pigment. While some colors are slightly coarse, others offer an exceptionally smooth texture, showcasing the traditional array of textural diversity found in oil colors.

Williamsburg Artist Oil Colors are categorized into four texture groups: Those that are silky smooth and glossy feature minimal to no texture. The range of very fine textured colors includes Cobalts, Phthalo Blues, and Permanent Yellows, Oranges, and Reds. The Cadmium colors from Williamsburg are specifically milled to a fine consistency, achieving remarkable density and tinting strength while ensuring a smooth feel. In contrast, for many of the Earth tones, great care is taken not to over-mill the pigments. This intentional choice enhances the tactile quality and preserves the natural crystalline properties of the minerals, creating a captivating interaction between deep masstones and radiant undertones.

Some Williamsburg colors, like Brown Pink and Stil De Grain, have a coarser texture, offering a more chunky or gritty sensation. This unique quality allows light to penetrate the medium, unveiling rich golden or mahogany undertones rather than merely producing heavy, muted browns.

Product Variants and Customer Ratings
Williamsburg Oil Colors are available in both 37 ml and 150 ml sizes, along with specific sets such as the Williamsburg Traditional Set, Williamsburg Landscape Set, and a Titanium Oil Ground. Customer reviews reflect the quality of these colors, with ratings ranging from 3.3 to 5 stars. Pricing details include $16.91 for the smaller sizes, $38.56 for the medium, and $47.66 for the larger sets.

Quality Control and Versatility
The small-batch production process at Williamsburg provides comprehensive control over product consistency. Each material is carefully hand-measured and evaluated, ensuring the finest quality in every ounce of paint. The Williamsburg palette serves as an excellent introduction for artists interested in a more traditional color spectrum. Furthermore, it offers an outstanding outdoor palette, enabling artists to replicate the diverse hues, shades, and tints found in nature.

Williamsburg also offers a medium designed for extending oil paint while maintaining its consistency, along with an oil ground formulated from Titanium Dioxide and marble dust, providing the perfect balance of tooth and absorbency.

With a vibrant color range that catches the eye and enhances its inherent luminosity, Williamsburg oil paints elevate artistic expression. The handmade quality reflects over 40 years of experience from an employee-owned company committed to serving professional artists in the USA.
