Paints And Mediums

GENESIS

For a number of years Genesis HeatSet Oil Paints have been regarded by many as the world’s most versatile quality fine artist paint ever made. This is because it suits artists who are used to using oils, acrylics or watercolours. It also provides today’s artists and students with a wonderfully safe medium to work with, without enduring harmful toxins or solvents found in many artists’ mediums. Not only are they non-toxic, they are also odour-free and contain NO heavy metals.

Due to their very high pigment content, colours are strong and vibrant, even after drying. Unlike acrylics there is no colour shift from wet to dry state. Genesis instantly gives your paintings depth and allows far better coverage. A tiny amount goes a long way. Of the 87 colours in the Genesis range, 79 colours are in category 1 for light fastness, and 8 are in category 2 (diox/purple values).

The full range of paints, mediums and varnishes all conform to ATSM D-4236 standards, guaranteeing strong archival qualities. Genesis Heat-Set Oil Paints are not solvent or water based. It has its own specially formulated base carrier. The full range of colours and their mediums are all certified Odourless and Non-Toxic, so this allows the many artists who suffer from allergies to get back to or commence using oils. Genesis has a thinning medium, a glazing gel and a thick medium. The thick medium allows impasto style painting and can be added to the paint to extend it without reducing the colour intensity. The glazing gel allows you to add the smallest amount of colour to get beautiful transparent glazes.
