Lance: “I have been painting since I was a child. My mother is an artist and encouraged me to paint, about which I am still very grateful. Due to my busy life my painting had to take a back seat, but when I was 40 and achieved everything that I had wanted to achieve, I decided to focus completely on painting. I wanted to share my art, my vision, with the world. Just enjoy myself painting When I started I deliberately did not give myself any objectives, apart from working hard, learning a lot and not worrying what others may think. I just want to enjoy myself painting! My uniqueness My uniqueness comes from simply being myself. I use those colours that arise within me and let the palette knife move, following my emotions at the time. I let my thoughts go where they want to. I always say the finished painting is already on that blank canvas, it just uses my hands and eyes to reveal itself to the world. It has its own life!”PDF colour chart

Roman SzmalAquarius WatercolorsAll AQUARIUS watercolors have excellent lightfastness (minimum rating of 7 on the Blue Wool scale), which means that the colors will not fade for at least 100 years (if used correctly). In contrast to other watercolors, the palette of our Aquarius colors consists exclusively of lightfast pigments.For this reason, our products do not contain any non-permanent pigments, such as PG8, PR83, PY1 or fluorescent. On the other hand, they contain some unique tones not available anywhere else, like PY61, PY168, PV37, PBr23 or PBk8. We only make small batches of our paints, which allows us to maintain an exceptional quality of our paints. Each batch is tested for its performance characteristics: vibrancy, flowability, viscosity, color value, transparency, grain, undertone, color strength, clarity and particle size. For each color we choose the perfect cut that matches the particle size and is optimal for the color's performance. We currently manufacture 180 colours, 154 are mono-pigment colours. Such a wide range of mono-pigment colors allows artists to mix them and create their own high-quality color palettes. Our 34 EARTH SHADES are made from natural earth, not synthetic iron oxides. With colors such as Aquarius Black, Mummy Transparent Red, Hämatite, Van Dyck Brown or Caput Mortuum, we give the artist even more choice. Some unique shades are created exclusively by ROMAN SZMAL ART, such as: B. Aquarius Green, Przybysz's Grey, Ocean Blue, Shadow Violet, Green Gold and Olive Green.We use only the highest quality ingredients: pharmaceutical grade gum arabic and glicerine, linden honey, distilled water and pure pigments. We only buy from suppliers with a good reputation.Each pan of AQUARIUS colors is filled and labeled by hand. The labels of our watercolors are made of hand-painted watercolor paper and provide information about lightfastness, grain, transparency and the degree of penetration into paper.

Oil paint has a special place at Old Holland. It is the first product we
manufactured.Since the early days of oils, artists have made high demands regarding the durability of their work. In order to meet these demands for optimum durability, Old Holland still produces all its classic oil paints according to traditional formulas (the durability of which has been demonstrated over the course of time), supplemented by the latest contemporary insights. The choice of pigments is a unique mix of the best traditional colours and the best pigments derived from the latest technological developments.
In 1985, following extensive research, Old Holland presented a revolutionary range of 168 oil paints, each with the highest degree of lightfastness. Traditional, non-lightfast pigments were replaced with modern lightfast pigments with the same colour characteristics as the traditional ones. Thanks to the highest possible concentration of pigment in each colour, the paint has an unprecedented colour strength. Within the unique range of 168 colours, there is a wide range of opaque and transparent colours, each with the highest possible brilliance (intense) and clarity (clean) characteristics. The only medium we use for our oil paints is cold-pressed extra virgin linseed oil, to obtain an optimum oxidisation (drying) of the paint. This increases durability and brushstroke spread. Together, these characteristics result in an oil paint of unequalled quality.
Each tube of Old Holland oil paint has a colour strip above the label, painted with the colour from the tube in question. We are convinced that this is the only honest method to show the colour in the tube. Old Holland is one of the only company that still uses this method.

Product information "Holbein ACRYLA Gouache 20ml" Holbein ACRYLA Acryl Gouache 20ml Available in 109 brilliant opaque colours, Holbein Acryla Gouache behaves like traditional gum arabic gouache but because it is made with an acrylic resin binder, it is waterproof once dry. This makes layering easier as fresh layers of colour can be applied without the risk of bleeding through the lower layer. Acryla Gouache dries quickly and with minimal colour change; what you see wet is what you get when the paint is dry. Holbein is unique in the art materials trade because they do not make entry-level/student quality paint products. Each of the 16 artist grade colour lines is designed to meet the specific needs of the professional/serious artist, with a focus on durability, brilliance and technique.
This material allows oil painting to be approached differently. It extends the artist's freedom of expression, allowing a greater degree of spontaneity, of "expressionism".
The Oil Stick is a composition of oil paint. A proportion of the oil is substituted with a neutral mineral wax, resulting in the stick appearance.These colours are of perfect quality: pure pigments are ground into vegetable oils (siccatives), selected for their low degree of yellowing with time. The choice and high concentration of pigments enables excellent light resistance to be achieved. These colours are applied discreetly to conventional oil painting supports (oil-proof or universal) and demand quality background preparation.
Supports: canvas, canvas boards, laminated panels, paper. Solid oil paint should be applied in a relatively thin film (no more than 1mm). Layers can be overlapped, in the same manner as paste oil paint, and can, if necessary, be thinned with petroleum or turpentine. Before use, the surface film should be removed. This latter will re-form after a few days of non-use. Paint applied dries within 2 to 5 days depending on layer thickness and atmospheric conditions. A clear medium is available allowing transparency and glazing effects to be achieved.
Solid artists' quality colours are available in opaque or transparent shades, depending on the shades of the pigments used. The product may be stored for extended periods of time and requires no special attention, apart from avoiding heat sources that may damage it.Once dry, the paint may be varnished like conventional oil paint, after a minimum drying period of 6 months, using an oil paint finishing varnish.
OIL PASTELS
In 1949, Parisian painter Henri GOETZ approached Henri SENNELIER the famous artist materials manufacturer, about creating a wax colour stick for his friend Pablo PICASSO. Picasso, a long-time Sennelier customer and a frequent visitor to their store across the street from the Louvre museum, was looking for a medium that could be used freely on a variety of surfaces without fading or cracking.
Their collaboration produced the incomparable SENNELIER oil pastels. Originally available in a palette of classic hues, the colour selection was expanded with the addition of metallic and iridescent hues.
Beyond these classic hues a selection of unique shades is available, and in particular a gradation of greys, required for a balanced palette. This evolution is the fruit of a long-standing collaboration with European and North American painters, who have worked with our company in developing an exceptional palette of shades.
The Sennelier oil pastel is a product that makes use of the components used in all Sennelier colours: top quality pigme nts, an extremely pure synthetic binding medium and mineral wax. The pigments are ground with an inert, non-siccative binding medium that does not oxidise and that has no effect upon either film stability or surface. This base is then mixed with wax (neutral pH). The balance of this mix provides Sennelier oil pastels with a unique unctuousness and a creamy texture that allows for a great deal of freedom in pictorial expression.
The Sennelier oil pastels possess an extraordinarily high pigment content, thus providing them with a high colouring and covering potential, excellent brightness and a high degree of light stability (with the exception of metallic and fluorescent shades).
The remarkable properties of these components, along with their precise dosage, provide Sennelier oil pastels with unique properties, making the brand a world-recognised reference.

Product information "Gamblin Artist Grade Oil Colors"
The Gamblin Color PaletteRobert Gamblin organized our palette into Mineral and Modern color groupings to help artists easily choose a palette of colorsthat
best matches their artistic intent. Our colors are also grouped by eras
of pigment history: Classical, Impressionist, and 20thCentury. Throughout the history of art, paintings have always been a reflection of the materials that were available to artists.Mineral ColorsThe Mineral side of the color chart includes those colors made from inorganic pigments, that is, metal ores dug from the earth.For many of these pigments, their color is developed in ovens at very high heat. At the bottom of the Mineral side of the chartis
the group of earth colors that made up the heart of painters’ palettes
during the Classical Era. This group of pigments, whichhas its
origins in cave painting and antiquity, was central to the oil painter’s
palette from the Renaissance through the ClassicalEra. From this
limited range of earth colors, painters depicted form by drawing large
contrasts between the darkest darks and thelightest lights, creating the chiaroscuro (literally, “light/dark”) effect so characteristic of classical paintings.During the Industrial Revolution, a whole new array of inorganic pigments was developed from compounds of minerals, such ascobalt, cadmium and manganese. Their intense mass tones complemented earth colors on painters’ palettes and replaced paintsmade from expensive semi-precious stones, fugitive colors, or highly toxic compounds. This full spectrum of pigments, packagedfor the first time as oil colors in tubes, expressed the Impressionists’ interest in pure color.Mineral Colors grey down when mixed with white, which is perfect for capturing the colors of the natural world. Mineral-basedpigments have larger pigment sizes and lower tinting strengths than modern colors. They are leaner and naturally more matte.Mineral colors are mostly opaque. Ultramarine Blue and Viridian, which are transparent, are exceptions. Mineral colors have aLightfastness rating of Excellent (I).Modern ColorsModern organic pigments are carbon-based. Most modern colors, including Quinacridone, Phthalo, and Perylene, aretransparent. Hansa and Napthol are semi-transparent. Because of their small particle sizes and higher oil absorption (fatter),modern pigments make colors of very high tinting strengths that are naturally more glossy.When mixed with white, modern colors make incredibly intense tints. They stay high key in mixtures unless a complement isadded. Rather than shifting from light to dark, a family of modern colors shifts from warm (Phthalo Emerald) to cool (PhthaloGreen). Modern colors have a Lightfastness rating of Excellent (I), with the exception of Hansa Yellow Light and Naptholpigments, which are rated as Very Good (II). Each tube of artist’s grade oil color is marked with a Lightfastness rating.Mineral and Modern colors are completely compatible with each other. Painters can use the characteristics of each color groupdescribed above to create their own personalized color palette.RadiantsGamblin Radiant Colors offer painters eight intense tints – mixtures of pure color and white – at Value 7 on the Munsell®System. Using these Radiant tints, painters can build high key underpaintings and then glaze to achieve optical effects of lightand shade.White, Grey & BlackThe most important color choice we make is the white we bring to our work. There are nine different Gamblin Whites to giveartists
a range of working properties, temperatures, drying rates and opacity.
Please refer to our Studio Notes Newsletter, Gettingthe White Right, on our website for more information on selecting the right white for your work.Gamblin Portland Greys (Light, Medium, and Deep) can mute the high key tints of the modern colors to make more naturallookingmixtures. Named for the city where they are made and its characteristic grey skies, the Portland Greys are formulatedfor painters who work with value. Our range of the neutral Portland Greys is expanded with Portland Warm Grey and PortlandCool Grey. A triad of muted primary colors is created when Titanium Buff is added to these. This gives painters the ability tocomplete a range of “colored greys.”Gamblin Chromatic Black gives painters a neutral, tinting black with energy that doesn’t muddy and flatten the colors the waytraditional blacks do. Because Chromatic Black is made from two colors that are perfect complements, Quinacridone Red andPhthalo Emerald, it gives painters a dead-center black with life to it and a clean transparency.
