Name: Daniel Smith WaterSoluble Oil Paints
Brand: Daniel Smith
Rating: 4.8 (55 reviews)

Developed for artists who love the creamy feel and rich appearance of classic oil paints but not the toxic solvents or tedious cleanup, Daniel Smith Water-Soluble Oils offer the most finely ground pigments of any water-soluble color line. Made by hand in Seattle, Washington, these vibrant paints are packed with the same premium pigments as Daniel Smith Original Oils, but use a special modified linseed oil binder that cleans up with ordinary water. 

Daniel Smith Water-Soluble Oil Paints look identical to their traditional counterparts and offer excellent brushability, a beautiful surface sheen, and uniform drying times. Their color strength is outstanding, even when mixed with Titanium White. For thinning, use water or Daniel Smith Water-Soluble Linseed Oil (or another brand of modified linseed oil). Please note that when you use water, the resulting surface sheen will have a slightly more matte appearance.

Daniel Smith Original Oil Paints are made by hand in Seattle, Washington. Introduced in 1989, they were formulated to offer a game-changing paint with remarkable color strength, reliable lightfastness, and consistent texture from tube to tube.

Great paint begins with great raw materials, and Daniel Smith settles for nothing less. The world's finest pigments are combined with high-grade, alkali-refined linseed oil chosen for its light color, low acid value, good adhesion, and resistance to yellowing. The perfect grind is determined for each individual pigment to yield particle sizes that maximize its inherent qualities. A small proportion of additive (less than 1% by weight) is included to improve brushability, ensure consistency, modify drying time, and improve the grind.  

Color strength and lightfastness are hallmarks of Daniel Smith Original Oil Paints. Paints are tested by placing samples in a Xenon Fadeometer, which exposes paint to the equivalent of 100 years of sunlight in 10 days. Artists can rely on all but three colors to remain virtually unchanged over a century.  

Choose from a wide palette of colors, many of which are unusual and unique to Daniel Smith. The line includes historical hues, amazing earths, dazzling luminescents, and some of the brightest and boldest quinacridones ever formulated. Over 60 colors in the line are single pigment colors.
