Made in small batches, Williamsburg Artist Oil Colors are recognized for being richly pigmented and dense. Each color is treated individually, with each pigment ground to the nature of that specific color, bringing out the beauty and preserving the wider range of differences that were common in the past. The line of colors is guided by tradition with a recognition for modern organic pigments. Most colors are considered to have excellent lightfastness, with the exception of Alizarin Crimson and Van Dyke Brown.
