*As written on Wallace Seymour official website:
"Artist's Oil Colors – Extra Fine
Hand made oil colors, carefully prepared to give optimum color reasonance.
Each color batch is made in small quantities (up to 1 liter per batch), so that each batch of paint produced is unique.
According to the nature of individual pigments, colors may be machine ground, prepared in a hand-milling machine, or simply ground by hand using a glass muller.
The colors are prepared into English cold-pressed linseed oil, from a single estate farm. This oil is a limpid golden yellow color, is free flowing (brush marks tend to settle out of paint films) and pressed without the addition of driers.
Because these oil colors are made without drying agents, they dry out according to the nature of the pigments used.
We suggest a 10-20% addition of our Fast Drying Oil Glaze Medium, to ensure balanced drying times.
The overuse of driers can be the cause of failure of paint films, leading to cracking and wrinkling of the dried paint, loss of sheen and excessive darkening."
