Michael Harding artists oil colour - 1l jar

Michael Harding artists oil colour - 1l jar
 
There are no fillers or extenders or driers within these oil colours.
I formulated this range of paints to the highest standards possible, reintroducing artists oil paints with the original colour intensities that artists would have experienced prior to the 1840's. This was when the invention of the collapsible tube led to mass production and gradual dilution of quality of the oil paint. The mass produced paints of today are pale imitations of the colours that artists before the 1840's were able to either make themselves or purchase from colourman whose production was limited. The main criteria of these colourman was the quality of the paint and not undercutting the competition.
For over 150 years there has been a steady decline and a serious lack of interest in the true nature and potential of this remarkable medium. The result has been that very few artists have an understanding of how to paint a picture that will not deteriorate over time.
The majority of artists who try my paints for the first time are shocked by the discovery that they had previously been painting with muted colours with serious questions as to their permanence.
Obviously while my paints cannot turn artists into Dutch masters, I can say with complete confidence that not only will their work last longer but they will enjoy a much greater empathy with their paint. I believe the artist should respond passionately to the materials with which he or she works. In addition to Sir Howard Hodgkin many other artists regularly use my paints including David Hockney and Sean Scully.
