About this product range

M. Graham puts the same care and attention to detail into acrylic paints that he lavishes on more traditional media. Each color is manufactured only in small batches, using a traditional three roller mill.

Only pure, high solid resins are used, with no fillers, retarders, opacifiers, or bulking agents. Each pigment is present in the highest concentration possible consistent with good working properties. This gives each color outstanding tinting strength and mass tone.
