Series 5 536 Turmaline Green 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 history’s famous painting masters. The Mussini series includes 101 colors and 7 gold tones. 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 remarkably wide range 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 with all Schmincke artist series colors. The drying process is balanced and occurs at the same rate throughout the entire paint layer. When applied to the painting surface, Mussini colors form a permanent and tension-resistant paint film. The Mussini series is available in 35 ml tubes for 108 colors and 150 ml tubes for 32 colors. Mussini oil colors, which stand out worldwide for 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 fundamental 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 the most important features that painters worldwide look for in oil colors, such as a brilliant luminosity, 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 those 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 excellent light-refracting properties, enhanced vibrancy, brilliance, and extraordinarily durable color layers to this quality of raw materials. The superior drying characteristics 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 film with guaranteed permanence. Schmincke Mussini series oil colors can be extremely easily mixed with other Schmincke oil colors (Norma Professional, Akademie, and College series) and oil painting mediums to achieve creative tones.
