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 NamePB27-Prussian BluePigment TypeinorganicChemical Nameferric ferrocyanide/iron(III)-hexacyanoferrate(II)Chemical FormulaFe7(CN)18(H2O)x or C6FeN6H4NPropertiesPrussian Blue is a semi-transparent, deep cyan-blue with a greenish undertone and a very high tinting strength unequaled by most pigments. It is similar to Phthalo Blue unless mixed with white, when it gives up intensity and becomes smoky. It can behave erratically and less reliably in oil and watercolor form depending on its manufacture. For permanent painting Phthalo Blue is considered a more reliable choice.PermanencePrussian Blue is lightfast and permanent in all techniques except for fresco. When mixed with Zinc White in watercolor or tempera form, it fades upon exposure to light and completely regains its chromatic strength in the dark. Modern manufacturing techniques have made this tendency less of an issue in recent yearsToxicityPrussian Blue is moderately toxic if ingested. It will emit toxic hydrogen cyanide gas if heated, exposed to ultraviolet radiation, or treated with acid.History"The first of the modern pigments," Prussian Blue is the first artificial pigment with a known history. It was discovered by accident in 1704 by the Berlin color maker Heinrich Diesbach, who was trying to create a pigment with a red hue by mixing iron sulfate and potash. The potash Diesbach purchased from a local laboratory had been contaminated by animal oil and blood during previous experimentation. The resulting mixture yielded a very pale red that changed to purple and then deep blue when he tried to concentrate it. Since previous blue pigments came from lapis lazuli, an expensive stone, Diesbach’s discovery was extremely important for artists of the time.
