Schmincke Mussini Artist Oil Paint 35 ml Series 6 528 Cobalt Green Opaque

Series 7 528 Cobalt Green Opaque 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 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, 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. Additionally, 42 of the colors in the series are of an exclusive and elegant semi-transparent type. 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 paints. The drying process is balanced and occurs at the same rate throughout the entire paint layer. When applied to the painting surface, Mussini paints form a permanent and tension-resistant paint film. The Mussini series is offered in 108 colors in 35 ml tubes and 32 colors 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 fundamental oil painting techniques passed down from 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 artists seek in oil paints worldwide, such as the brilliant radiance of the color, the highest level of lightfastness, and a pleasant, smooth buttery consistency. Mussini is manufactured by incorporating only the best traditional pigments alongside 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 with 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 extraordinarily durable color layers—to this raw material quality. 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 increase in volume, thus causing the paint layer to shrink optimally. This balanced drying process occurs uniformly throughout the paint layer, creating a tension-resistant paint film with guaranteed longevity. Schmincke Mussini series oil colors can be mixed extremely easily with Schmincke's other oil paints (Norma Professional, Akademie, and College series) and oil painting mediums, allowing for the creation of creative tones.
