What Makes Marie’s Oil Colour a Must-Have for Artists?

Marie’s Oil Colour stands out for its reliable pigment load, smooth consistency, and flexible handling. The paints spread evenly, hold brush texture when required, and respond well to glazing, scumbling, and impasto techniques.

Conformance to ASTM D-4236 and EN 71-3 (as listed on many retailer pages) adds a trusted safety label for classroom and home studio use.

How to Use Marie’s Oil Colour?

1. Prepare Your Surface
Ensure your canvas, board, or paper is clean and dry. Oil paints work best on primed surfaces such as gesso-coated canvases.

2. Squeeze Out a Small Amount
A little goes a long way. Start with a pea-sized amount of each colour on your palette and add more as needed.

3. Mix With Mediums (Optional)
Adjust paint flow and finish using:

• Linseed oil – for smoother blending and glossy finish

• Turpentine / Odourless thinner – for thinning and underpainting

• Painting medium – for controlled drying and texture

4. Apply with Brush or Palette Knife
Use soft brushes for fine detailing and palette knives for textured, bold strokes.

5. Build Layers Gradually
Begin with thin, diluted layers (fat-over-lean rule), then add thicker strokes for highlights and final effects.

6. Allow Proper Drying Time
Oil paints dry slowly. Touch-dry time varies from 24 hours to several days depending on colour and thickness.

7. Clean Brushes Immediately
Use turpentine or an odourless brush cleaner, then wash with mild soap and water to maintain bristle quality.

8. Store Properly After Use
Tightly close the tube to prevent drying and keep away from high heat or direct sunlight.

FAQs

Q: How should I store Marie’s oil paints?
A: Keep tubes tightly closed and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Q: Are these paints toxic?
A: Marie’s list “non-toxic” on many retailer pages, and many variants conform to ASTM D-4236 and EN 71-3 labelling. Still, avoid ingestion and prolonged skin contact; consult the safety info on each tube.

Q: Can I thin or mix them?
A: Yes — thin with recommended oil painting mediums (linseed oil, stand oil) and use turpentine or a substitute for brush cleaning. For water-mixable versions (if offered), follow specific product labelling.

Q: Drying time?
A: Varies by pigment and film thickness — typically surface-dry in 1–3 days, fully cured over weeks to months depending on layer thickness and medium used.
