M. Graham Artist Oil Paint Ultramarine Blue 1.25oz/37ml Tube

The Titanium White is a brilliant bright color. It mixes nicely and the resulting admixes are clean and don’t get muddy with three or four added colors. It brushes on nicely with great coverage. The drying time is looooong.

ABOUT THE COLOR: I normally use raw or burnt umber for the same purposes as the Van Dyke. I had to buy this color in order to study with a really good teacher, and she did not lead me astray. Love it. This color is between the two umbers, and reads as more a more neutral color. ABOUT M. GRAHAM OIL PAINT: these folks are getting more and more of my art-supply dollars, as I use their walnut alkyd medium for its quicker dry time with transparent luster; and I use their walnut oil INSTEAD of paint thinner for cleaning my brushes! The oil is non-toxic, with no odor, and conditions brushes as it cleans between colors. (As with any paint, I use soap and water at the end before putting brushes away.) M. GRAHAM OIL PAINT vs ACRYLIC: Acrylic dries darker than it goes on. <-- Lather, rinse and repeat this sentence, and let it sink in deeply! Acrylic's darker-dry-color makes it impossible to rework skin tones. What you see is never what you get with wet acrylic paint! And it KEEPS on darkening, year after year. With oil, what you see is what you get. BRAVO M. GRAHM for going the extra mile and helping painters making oil paint non-toxic perfection!!!! Long live oil paint, and thank you M. Graham!!!!!

Out of all of the oil paints I have M Graham delivers the highest color payload. Amazing paint, gorgeous color and very nice feel. Looking forward to incorporating this one into my repertoire.

Love this paint. I used it for a painting workshop I took with the great Arthur Gain. (An alla prima workshop.) He recommended using a fast-drying white, and I chose M Graham’s white, because it seems a little higher quality than W&N Griffin (which is okay, don’t get me wrong). Lovely paint! Love the drying time.

Love this .

Decided to try this, as the color is not available from Windsor Newton anymore. Color is good, but the tube arrived with a sizeable dent. It was just thrown into an envelope, Amazons new packing procedure. Don’t know how this will affect long term use of tube. At almost $18 a tube they could have put a piece of cardboard around it or a small box for protection

If you're like me, you found M Graham oils because you had a terrible reaction to the solvents in mass produced oil paints as well as using solvents to thin paint and clean brushes. Winter will do that for you when you can't open windows. So I found M Graham, ordered the sample set, and just used them today for the first time. First impression...WOW! I can see using these exclusively...and that's good because I think I have to. The intensity of the pigment worried me until I actually used them...no need to worry...the color depth and strength of these paints is wonderful. The consistancy? As many others have said...smooth, creamy, buttery...love the feel of the walnut oil binder as opposed to linseed (or other). I also did some glazing today and used the Walnut Alkyd...jury is still out...the result is a bit shiny for me (but then so is Liquin), and we'll see how fast the layer dries. Clean up was hard without Turpenoid, but I can live with that. The walnut oil did seem to keep my brushes soft and supple though...I'm sure I'll figure out the best way to clean after some experimentation. Might try a product called Neutral Thin from EcoHouse just for cleanup. It's supposed to be virtually non-volitile...we'll see. I'm so excited about these paints! What a find. And this little kit is a great way to try the oil products from M Graham...the essential palette colors in an inexpensive set, plus the walnut oil mediums. Don't hesitate to try this kit.

Love the color and consistency!

Always good

Would buy again but l would use these sooner than later when open as they dry out pretty quickly when open so good but not long lasting than original oils

This paint is absolutely amazing. Works with many different techniques. Nothing beats M. Graham. The colours are bright and true. This paint is thin and oily though so it may not work for some.

Great paint, hard to find in local stores so I'm very happy to find it here.

My favorite watercolor paint. Doesn't dry out in tube. Nice pigments
