Schmincke Mussini Artist Oil Paint 35 ml Series 1 670 Raw Umber Light

Series 1 670 Raw Umber Light Mussini Finest Artist Oil Color. A high-quality oil color, Mussini stands out worldwide for its unique quality, being an oil paint that contains natural resin as a binder. It is produced based on the formulas of history's famous painting masters. The Mussini series consists of 101 colors and 7 gold shades. 64 of these colors are single-pigment colors, possessing the highest possible level of vibrancy, brilliance, and purity. Therefore, it is an artist series with a very wide variety of pure, single-pigment colors. The series also features 42 exclusive and elegant semi-transparent colors. The pigments are of premium artist quality and have the highest possible pigment density. Lightfastness and permanence are also at the highest level, as is the case with all Schmincke artist series paints. The drying process is balanced and occurs at the same rate throughout the paint layer. When applied to the painting surface, Mussini paints form a permanent and tension-resistant paint layer. In the Mussini series, 108 colors are available in 35 ml tubes, and 32 colors are available in 150 ml tubes. Mussini oil paints, which come to the fore worldwide with their unique texture, quality, and characteristics, were born from the centuries-old experience of the Italian painting tradition and are named after Professor Cesare Mussini, who worked at the Florence Academy of Fine Arts. The eye-catching color quality of the Mussini series stems from the use of basic oil painting techniques preserved from the long-standing traditions of old masters, as well as the careful selection of pigments and the use of natural resins as binders. The Mussini series possesses the most important features that painters around the world look for in oil paints, such as the brilliant luminosity of the color, the highest level of lightfastness, and a pleasant, soft buttery consistency. Mussini is manufactured by incorporating only the best traditional pigments and some state-of-the-art pigments into the production process at the highest possible density per unit volume. Mixtures made with these paints lose nothing of their radiance and yield results as good as paints made from single pure pigments. Composed solely of high-quality pigments and natural binders such as linseed oil, safflower oil, and dammar resin, these paints owe their characteristics—such as excellent light refraction, enhanced vibrancy, brilliance, and exceptionally durable color layers—to this quality of raw materials. The superior drying properties of Mussini series oil paints result from the evaporation of the solvent content of the natural resin while the oil-based components absorb oxygen and increase in volume, causing the paint layer to shrink and settle into an ideal state. This balanced drying process occurs uniformly throughout the paint layer, creating a tension-resistant paint layer with guaranteed permanence. Schmincke Mussini series oil paints can be mixed extremely easily with Schmincke's other oil paints (Norma Professional, Akademi, and College series) and oil painting mediums to achieve creative tones.
