Description

Sennelier Artists’ Extra-Fine Oil Paints are made from only the highest quality traditional and modern pigments hand-ground extra-fine. They are then combined at maximum concentration with archival safflower oil to yield the highest possible tinting strength, a lustrous satin finish, and resistance to yellowing. They have a unique non-glossy “French” satin finish that looks more natural than other artist oil colors.

The sensuous pigments have a unique buttery texture, a consistency originally developed for the expressive textural style of the Impressionist painters who frequented the Sennelier store in 19th century France. Favored by some of the greatest artists like Monet, Gauguin, Matisse, Picasso, Bonnard, Modigliani, Chagall, Ernst, and Hockney, Sennelier oils hang in the world’s most prestigious museums.
