What makes Academy Oils different from other student-grade oils? To start, Academy uses more professional-grade, single pigments in its range than most of its competitors. Nearly half of the color range uses a single pigment, making Academy Oils great for color mixing. We mix those pigments with alkali refined linseed oil, which undergoes a multi-phased clarifying process to remove impurities. This superior oil yellows less than traditional linseed oil and lubricates the pigments, giving the paint a smooth, silky feel and allows the paint to dry evenly and consistently. Each color in the Academy Oil range has a lightfast rating of 1-Excellent -- no other student line has a full range of lightfast colors! Each color is labeled AP non-toxic and is available at a single price point. Academy Oil paints are made in small batches and undergo rigorous quality control processes before they reach your palette.
