Gamblin Artist’s Oil Colors – (1.25oz/37ml) Viridian

Gamblin Artists Oils use a binder of alkali-refined linseed oil. This binder results in a strong, flexible paint film, which does not yellow as much as cold pressed linseed oil. Made with the finest refined linseed oils, each color retains the unique characteristics of the high quality pigments, including tinting strength, undertone, and texture. 

Viridian: First synthesized in 1859, nontoxic Viridian replaced Verdigris and Emerald Green as a glazing color by the turn of the 20th century. It has good tinting strength, its tint muted like colors of the natural world.
