Description High performance artists’ oil paint developed to excel in saturation of colour and physical handling qualities. Langridge believes they are the finest, most unique oil colours available in the world. Our customers agree. New Colours! Paliotan Lemon, Azo Orange, Napthol Red Deep, Neon Violet, Indanthrone Blue, Phthalo Blue (Red Shade), Phthalo Green (Yellow Shade), and Manganese Black. Hand made in Melbourne. Available in 300ml please enquire – Made without modifiers, opacifiers, fillers and anything that may interfere with the clarity and true brightness of the pigment. – Handmade in Melbourne by triple-roll mill in batches no larger than 20 litres, which allows total control throughout production. – Multiple passes of the paint through the mill create the strongest ‘colour development’ possible, resulting in colours that are highly intense, easily extended and cleanly mixed. – Adulterants and modifiers are well known by conservation scientists to dramatically weaken the paint film’s integrity. Artists can be confident that our oil colours will age without alteration in colour, flexibility or adhesion. – Colours have not been adulterated so the true individual nature of each pigment has not been masked. – Oxides will be soft and brush out easily whilst modern organic Phthalos will be stiff. Other colours may be buttery, slippery, sticky or clotted. Why have Langridge made a pure, full-strength paint? – Because they believe that oil paint’s true nature has a ‘blood & guts’ physicality unlike any other media and these qualities are an advantage to the artist. The resulting range of paints has the: – fullest chromatic strength, – intense tinting power, – excellent light fastness qualities – extremely clean colour-mixing potential on the palette.
