So much of the quality of oil paint is in the grinding. Each color is ground to enhance the beauty and luminosity specific to that particular pigment. Some colors will feel slightly gritty, while others extremely smooth. Meanwhile, Cerulean Blue will have a beautiful velvet, light-absorbing surface with an extremely strong covering power. The Sienna colors will often be chunky or gritty to allow light to travel through the vehicle, exposing rich golden or mahogany undertones instead of just heavy, dull browns. Pigments are ground in pure, premium, alkali-refined linseed oil and are made in batches no larger than eight gallons at a time. This allows for total control over the product, much like the late nineteenth century French color makers. All the materials used are hand measured, and every ounce of paint is scrutinized for quality. Williamsburg and Golden give technical advice to artists, museums, and conservators throughout the world and welcome your questions and comments. Find product support here. SDS for Oil Colors
