About this product range
  • Luminous, professional quality colors at a standout value
  • Hand-ground pigments in safflower and linseed oils
  • Powerful tint strength and excellent lightfastness
  • Rich and responsive for suave brushwork
  • Strong single-pigment range for clean color mixing

Blick Artists’ Oil Colors deliver all the performance of the leading professional brands—at a fraction of the price. Loaded with premium, hand-ground pigments and suspended in pure, first-press safflower or linseed oil, colors are individually ground on a traditional three-roll mill for powerful color strength, responsive handling, and superior lightfastness.

Most colors use safflower oil for non-yellowing permanence, while select pigments—such as Cerulean Blue—are suspended in poppy oil for a slower drying time. Deeper values like Ivory Black and Sepia are made with traditional linseed oil for added richness and durability.

Thirty of the 60 colors are single-pigment formulations, giving artists unmatched purity and precision in color mixing. Whether you're building a professional palette, refining your technique, or seeking premium quality without the premium markup, Blick Artists’ Oils deliver studio-trusted performance at unbeatable value.

Quinacridone pigments were first developed as coatings for the automotive industry, but were quickly adopted by artists.

Titanium White

PW6
Type

Chemical formula

Properties
Titanium White is the most brilliant of the white pigments. It is considered an all purpose oil color useful in all techniques and the best all around white. Its masstone is neither warm nor cool, placing it somewhere between Lead White and Zinc White. It is less prone to cracking and yellowing than Lead White, but it still yellows easily. Titanium White dries slowly in oil form, more slowly than Lead White but more quickly than Zinc White. It is opaque in oil and acrylic forms and semi-opaque in watercolor form. This pigment has good chemical stability, and its tinting strength is superior to both Lead White and Zinc White.
Permanence
Titanium White has excellent permanence and lightfastness.
Toxicity
Titanium dioxide is highly stable and is regarded as non-toxic.
History
Titanium is the ninth most abundant element in the Earth's crust, however mineral deposits that are economical to mine are less common. Titanium dioxide was first discovered in 1821, although it could not be mass produced until 1919. Widespread use of the pigment began in the 1940s. Since that time, it has become the most commonly used white pigment. The name comes from the Latin word Titan, the name for the elder brother of Kronos and ancestor of the Titans, and from the Greek word tito, meaning day or sun.
