Artisan Water Mixable Oil Assorted Colours

Artisan Water Mixable Oil Paints was developed to look and work just like conventional oil colour, without the hazardous solvents. Unlike traditional oils, this range can be thinned and cleaned up with water, and all brushes and equipment can be cleaned up with soap and water. With a balanced spectrum of 40 colours, Artisan includes 25 single pigment colours for colour brilliance and clean colour mixing.

No Hazardous Solvents: Since it does not need hazardous solvents, Artisan is ideal for artists who share a workspace, for those in education or at home, those looking for a safer painting environment, and for travel.

Pigments & Binder: There is no water within the Artisan formulation; the linseed and safflower oils have been modified to allow the colour to accept water. This creates a stable emulsion and retains conventional oil colour's working characteristics. 

The pigments bring out each colour’s characteristics, from opacity to natural transparency, with the most suitable oil.

Consistency & Texture: With a buttery, thick consistency, a wide variety of techniques can be achieved, and the colour can be thinned as required.

Surface Sheen: Each pigment needs different oil levels in the formulation so that the sheen may differ slightly from colour to colour. The addition of water as a solvent and mediums will also alter the brilliance.

Complementary Mediums: Artisan has its range of thinners, oils, mediums and varnishes to allow all oil painting techniques. Created specifically for Artisan, these ensure the best performance and a painting experience very close to traditional oils.
