Gamblin Phthalo Blue Artists' Oil Colors 37 ml

Gamblin Artist's Oil Colors are artists' grade oil colors made from pure pigments and the finest refined linseed oil, produced by a small company of oil painters led by Robert Gamblin. Considered America's premiere colorman, Robert Gamblin has made oil colors for the Smithsonian Institute, formulating each color to preserve the unique textural and tinctorial differences among families of pigments. The Gamblin palette is composed of mineral colors including cobalt, chemically pure cadmium, and earth colors, plus a full range of modern, more transparent colors that retain their intensity when used in mixtures.

When teaching the history of artists' colors in art schools throughout the English-speaking world, Robert Gamblin's message is simple: today, the finest quality artists' materials made in the history of painting are available to discerning painters. Gamblin Artists Colors are made for painters who recognize artists' grade oil colors and appreciate good value.

One example of a Gamblin Artist's Color is the Warm Blue, originally made for printmaking ink (cyan), to replace Prussian Blue in the 1920s. This color has a clean, pure masstone and transparency, and like all modern Gamblin colors, it has high tinting strength. The Warm Blue is available in a 37ml tube.

The Gamblin factory is operated by this small company of oil painters, led by Robert Gamblin, who is dedicated to providing artists with the finest quality materials. Gamblin's formulations preserve the unique characteristics of each pigment, resulting in a palette that offers both traditional mineral colors and modern, transparent hues that retain their vibrancy when mixed. By teaching the history of artists' materials, Gamblin reinforces the message that today's painters have access to the best quality products, made with the same care and attention to detail that has defined the company's approach since its inception.
