Description: Artist and master paintmaker Art Graham put years of experience at other companies behind him and started his own business based on his own vision and values. The result is a paint, manufactured without fillers or additives, that goes back to some of oil painting's finest traditions.M. Graham Artists' Oil Colors are made with a walnut oil binder, an alternative to traditional linseed oil that's been preferred by artists for centuries. In fact, today it's known that Renaissance masters such as Da Vinci and Durer generally favored walnut oil over linseed oil. Walnut oil provides rich, vibrant color that is naturally more alive and brilliant than traditional linseed oil. Free flowing and slow drying, M. Graham's walnut oil formulation enables delicate passages of finely blended color that retain their brilliance over time.Titanium White and Titanium White-Alkyd are made with a walnut-sunflower oil binder.Oil Color set with FREE Mediums - Contains five, 1.25 oz tubes of M. Graham Solvent Free Oils including Azo Yellow, Napthol Red, Ultramarine Blue, Phthalocyanine Green and Titanium White. Also includes FREE 2 oz bottle of Walnut Oil and Walnut Alkyd Medium (a non-toxic, environmentally responsible alternative to solvent).Colors on Monitors - Due to differences in users’ monitors, the colors presented are an approximation of the true color. Pigment NamePB29-Ultramarine [Blue]Pigment TypeinorganicChemical Namecomplex silicate of sodium and aluminum with sulfurChemical FormulaNa8-10Al6Si6O24S2-4 or Na6-8Al6Si6O24S2-4PropertiesUltramarine is the standard warm blue, a brilliant blue pigment that has the most purple and least green in its undertone. It has a moderate to high tinting strength and a beautiful transparency. Synthetic Ultramarine is not as vivid a blue as natural Ultramarine. Ultramarine dries slowly in oil and tends to produce clean, though granular, washes in watercolor. French Ultramarine mixes well with Alizarin colors in oil and watercolor form to create a range of purples and violets. It can dull when mixed with white in acrylic form, but mixes well with other colors. The shade varies based on manufacturer. Considered a great color for glazes, it is not suitable for frescoing.PermanenceUltramarine has excellent permanence, although synthetic Ultramarine is not as permanent as natural Ultramarine. It may discolor if exposed to acid because of its sulfuric content.ToxicityUltramarine has no significant hazards.HistoryThe name for this pigment comes from the Middle Latin ultra, meaning beyond, and mare, meaning sea, because it was imported from Asia to Europe by sea. It is a prominent component of lapis lazuli and was used on Asian temples starting in the 6th century. It was one of the most expensive pigments in 16th century Europe, worth twice its weight in gold, and so was used sparingly and when commissions were larger. Ultramarine is currently imitated by a process invented in France in 1826 by Jean Baptiste Guimet, making blue affordable to artists and extending the range of colors on their palettes.
