Gamblin

At Gamblin, their mission is to lead oil painting and printmaking into the future. To them this means crafting materials as they ought to be, not just as they have been. Their luscious colors and contemporary mediums are true to historic working properties, yet safer and more permanent.

Gamsol has freed a generation of artists from exposure to strong solvents. In collaboration with the National Gallery they brought painters Gamvar, the perfect picture varnish.

"I have always wanted to give artists color at its maximum with a luscious texture. A texture that readily responds to an artist’s intention and handles beautifully. A color reaches its maximum when the pigment has been developed to the highest emotional resonance for that color. There is so much more to our work than fine raw materials and high pigment loads. At Gamblin, we are forging together the right balance of pigment, oil, history, science and emotion. All twenty of us are dedicated to getting that balance right. Every color. Every batch. Every time." - Robert Gamblin
