Gamblin Artist's Oil Colors - Gamblin Artists Oils are based on alkali refined linseed oil as
a binder. It yellows significantly less than cold pressed linseed oil, the
traditional binder in oil paints, and makes a strong, flexible paint film.
Robert Gamblin has sought out the finest grades of pigment available (yes,
there are differences). He has constructed a paint of exceptional durability in
a color palette that is proof of his devotion to painter's real
concerns. All colors are mixed and packed by a dedicated crew of
20 employees in their sun-drenched (at least when we visited) factory in
Southeast Portland. Robert's concern with the longevity of oil paint has led
him to national recognition and extensive collaboration with groups such as the
National Gallery in Washington, DC. Recently, Gamblin was commissioned to formulate a
custom gold finish that was applied to the entire ceiling of the
newly rehabilitated Radio City Music Hall in New York City. Robert Gamblin
is evangelistic about creating safe environments and work habits for oil painters.
We carry all of Gamblin's safe solvent related mediums. We encourage you
to check out the extensive information on personally and environmentally responsible studio
practices available from Gamblin. This is a paint you can trust from
a company we believe in. Made with the finest refined linseed oils,
each color retains the unique characteristics of the pigments, including tinting strength,
undertone, and texture. |

Tombow Dual Brush-Pens - Tombow Dual Brush-Pens have
two tips — a flexible brush tip and a fine-point, hard nylon
tip. Both tips are fed from the same ink reservoir ensuring exact
color match. Tombow's odorless waterbased inks blend to create any color desired.
With the flexible nylon fiber brush tip, you can achieve fine, medium,
or boldbrush strokes simply by changing the pressure on the point. The
resilient tip springs back to hold its shape, stroke after stroke. With
the hard nylon tip, you can create consistent lines, tight drawings, borders,
copy markings, fine lettering, and more. Tips can be dipped in water
to create subtle color washes. They're ideal for use with rubber stamps.
Pens are 7¾" long (20 cm) with color-coded caps for quick selection.
The brush nib and hard nib are at opposite ends. Tombow Dual
Brush-Pens use no toxic inks or pigments, and are acid-free. |
