Dick Blick is proud to present
the complete palette of French watercolors from Sennelier of Paris.
Sennelier was founded in 1887 in a shop across from
the Louvre, just steps from the School of Beaux Arts.
Gustave Sennelier mixed oil colors and watercolors for some of
the most notable painters of the time including Cézanne, Picasso,
Bonnard, Gauguin, Dali, Modigliani, Soutine, Degas, Monet, and Kandinsky, as
well as for nearby students. Although Sennelier still grinds each
pigment and its medium on a surface of granite, to
obtain the proper consistency, the entire Sennelier line has been
updated to reflect 21st century advances in pigment composition, resulting
in the lightfastness desired by today's painters. These rich and
intense colors are extremely fine and luminous, well worth their
cost. Colors are available in two tube sizes — 10
ml (.33 oz) and 21 ml (.71 oz). Gift Idea

Holland Oil Color Factory was established in 1644 and is still continuing
its tradition; the oldest artist's paint factory in the world. These oil
paints are still manufactured according to the 16th century methods and under
the supervision of artists. The old Dutch Masters used Old Holland paint.
All of these colors are manufactured using stone rollers which don't change
the color of the paint. Only the purest virgin cold-pressed sunbleached linseed
oil is ever used. In the classic Old Holland colors no fillers
such as cheap chalk, barium sulphate, aluminum hydrate powders or wax are
used. The resulting benefits to the artist using the classic colors are
greater covering power, strength of color and the superb intensity of classic
color. The paint is packed in soft lead tubes with a thin
layer of pewter, as opposed to an aluminum tube which oxidizes within
15 years. Lead tubes last a lifetime. Since this paint consists of
pure pigments and oil as opposed to industrially manufactured paints, it cannot
be filled mechanically in tubes because the paint is too sticky. The
filling of the tubes is done by hand; tube by tube. If
Old Holland classic colors seem too strong in color mixing, try mixing
the colors with a white oil paint first.
