M. Graham & Co.Artist Oil Paint Viridian 1.25oz/37ml Tube

This was packaged well, arrived on time. It is good paint and I like the color. Good value.

M. Graham makes wonderful, quality oil paint. I needed a new yellow color for a difficult painting I am working on, so I ordered Hansa yellow. I've never worked with it before. It is very like lemon yellow, but a little more golden and a very pleasant color. I find the paint a little watery, and I don't know if it is the nature of this particular color since it is semi-transparent paint. It also has a lightfastness of very good instead of excellent. But I've enjoyed using it on this project. Thanks for reading :)

Love this color, rich easy to use.

This behaves wonderfully on the pallet. Not nearly as chalky as pure titanium pigment, and the addition of zinc really adds that nice buttery feel to it. It’s not as great as a lead white which mixes so well with colors, but if you’re worried about using a lead pigment this is the next best thing.

The media could not be loaded.  This viridian is intensly pigmented, super-smooth and buttery and always the one I reach for. It's a great value for the money and a little goes a long way. Very easy to work with and smooth and blend able out of the tube.

I have been using the M. Graham oil paints for a little while now. I like them for a number of reasons. Like all products, there are positive and negative qualities. The paint color is excellent; these are professional quality paints. The consistency is very smooth. They are very soft and remain nice to work with on the palette for some time. They are walnut oil based. This is nice in that they are considered a healthier painting option for some people. They do seem to dry slowly. You can take this as a positive or negative depending on your painting style.I have one tube that has separated somewhat; I am not sure which color it is offhand, a blue I think. I am always trying to find the perfect oil for my style. These are as close as any I have tried. To be fair, I still have a number of reputable brands to try yet. I bought all but this tube from a different reputable supplier; I missed having a ready purple after they were delivered. If you like to paint; give them a try. I would recommend this line of paints, especially if you are uncomfortable with oil paint solvents. Remember, you are a little limited in terms of media. I have mixed then with traditional oils, but I have been leery of using media for oils with these paints.

I read an interesting post by a fine painter who shared that Van Gogh used a good deal of cerulean blue (kings blue) in his work. This is a beautiful high quality color that can be easily modified with titanium white for creating a lovely sky . . .

This filled the order for my painting class supplies.

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

Mixes well with solid colours too.

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.

Love this perfect set,needs a brush

M. Graham Oils are absolutely the best bang for your buck. Though similar to other more budget professional brands in pricing, they punch above their weight in quality. I love their watercolours and have been a fan for many years. I am now a fan of their oils, of how smooth and pigmented they are. I can get the larger M. Graham 150ml tube for the price of a 40 ml tube in those high-end brands -- especially for some expensive pigments like cobalt and cadmium and still have some money left over to pay rent!
