Schmincke Mussini Artist Oil Paint 35 ml Series 5 228 Cadmium Yellow 2 Middle

Series 5 228 Cadmium Yellow 2 Middle Mussini Finest Artist Oil Color. Mussini is a high-quality oil color that has distinguished itself worldwide with its unique quality, containing natural resin as a binder. It is produced based on the formulas of the famous masters of painting throughout history. The Mussini series consists of 101 colors and 7 gold tones. 64 of these colors are single-pigment colors, offering 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 includes 42 exquisite 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 offered in 150 ml tubes. Standing out worldwide for its unique texture, quality, and characteristics, Mussini oil colors 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 old masters, as well as the careful selection of pigments and the use of natural resins as binders. The Mussini series possesses all 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, smooth, buttery consistency. Mussini is manufactured by incorporating only the best traditional pigments along with some state-of-the-art pigments at the highest possible density per unit volume. Mixtures made with these paints lose none of their brilliance and produce results as good as paints made from a single pure pigment. Composed solely of a combination 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 extraordinarily durable color layers—to this quality of raw materials. The superior drying properties of Mussini series oil colors result from the evaporation of the solvent content of the natural resin while the oil-based parts of the paint absorb oxygen and expand, causing the paint layer to shrink to an ideal volume. This balanced drying process occurs uniformly throughout the paint layer, creating a tension-resistant paint layer with guaranteed permanence. Schmincke Mussini series oil colors can be mixed extremely easily with other Schmincke oil colors (Norma Professional, Akademi, and College series) and oil painting mediums to achieve creative tones.
