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.

Phthalo Green

Pigment code
PG36
Type
organic
Chemical name
polybromopolychlorinated copper(II) phthalocyanine
Chemical formula
C32H3Cl13CuN8 to C32HCl15CuN8 or C32H16CuN8Cl15 (PG7) or C32Br6Cl10CuN8 (PG36)
Properties
Phthalo Green is a transparent, cool, bright, high intensity color used in oil and acrylics. It comes from a Phthalocyanine Blue pigment where most of the hydrogen atoms have been replaced with chlorine, forming highly stable molecules. Pigment PG36 differs from PG7 in that a portion of the chlorine atoms are replaced with bromine atoms, which are reactively similar, but cause a yellow shift that is especially noticeable in mixtures. Phthalo Green has similar pigment properties and permanence to Phthalo Blue. It is slow drying and an excellent base color for mixing a range of bright greens. Phthalo Green is considered a very good alternative to Viridian because it is intense and mixes well and can be used to emphasize mineral colors in various tints. However, its tinting strength is very high, so it can overpower other colors. This pigment most closely resembles the discontinued and toxic Verdigris.
Permanence
Phthalo Greens are completely lightfast and resistant to alkali, acids, solvents, heat, and ultraviolet radiation. They are currently used in inks, coatings, and many plastics due to their stability and are considered a standard pigment in printing ink and the packaging industry.
Toxicity
Phthalo Green has no significant hazards, but it contained PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls) until 1982.
History
This bright blue-green was developed in 1935 and has been in use since 1938.

Hansa Yellow 10G

Pigment code
PY3
Type
organic, monoazo
Chemical formula
C16H12CL2N4O2
Properties
This Hansa yellow is a transparent yellow. It has great brightness and tinting strength and its drying time ranges from average to slow. Hansa Yellow makes more intense tints and cleaner secondaries than Cadmium Yellows, especially when mixed with other organic or modern colors like Phthalo Blue and Green. Because they are more transparent, they have great value as glazing colors.
Permanence
This Hansa Yellow has fair to good permanence, particularly in the lighter shades.
Description
