Cranfield Artists' Oil Colour 40ml – Lamp Black (Series 1)

Cranfield Artists' Oil Colours are made by Cranfield Colours, the independent paint and ink maker based in Cwmbran, South Wales, whose printmaking inks are found in studios and art schools across the UK. The artists' range is a richly pigmented, professional-quality oil colour with a buttery, responsive body that holds a brushmark yet blends smoothly on the canvas.

The 40ml tube is a practical size for the studio or for travel, letting you build a full palette across the range without overcommitting to colours you use sparingly. Whites are offered ground in safflower or linseed oil so you can choose a paler, slower-drying white or a faster, more robust one.

Colours are priced in Series 1 to 5 according to the cost of the pigment, so genuine cadmiums and cobalts sit alongside dependable earths and phthalos. Thin with solvent or your preferred medium for glazes and underpainting, or use straight from the tube for impasto and alla prima work.
