The Basic Set is an affordable introductory set for painting with Tusc & Pine Artist Oil Paints. It features clean and easy-to-mix primary colors such as Permanent Yellow Light, Permanent Red Light, and Ultramarine Blue. Our highly regarded Titanium White and Phthalo Green complete the palette. This set is perfect for those who want to mix their colors from scratch. We have not included any browns in this set because they can be created by combining these RYB primaries.

Titanium White (in Linseed): Titanium dioxide has twice the covering power of lead white while remaining highly stable and lightfast. Alkaline-refined linseed oil gives the paint its creamy texture and helps prevent yellowing over time.

Permanent Yellow Light: This bright, light yellow is just as tart as a lemon wedge. We use a high-grade synthetic pigment to produce Permanent Yellow Light. The automotive and aerospace industries developed PY74 to withstand intense conditions. Because of this, our Permanent Yellow Light has one of the highest lightfastness performance ratings on the market.

Permanent Red Light: This light red is more demure than Permanent Red Medium but still packs a powerful punch. We use a high-grade synthetic pigment to produce Permanent Red Light.

Ultramarine Blue: Painters have prized ultramarine since the Renaissance when Lapis Lazuli was mined to make it. In 1824, France sponsored a competition to encourage the invention of an artificial version of the deep, vivid blue. Jean Baptiste Guimet won the prize and popularized his new economical version of ultramarine.

Phthalo Green: This green brings to mind the intoxicating potions a voodoo priestess might prepare. Chlorinated copper phthalocyanine is used to make this seductive color.
