Mister Dominique Sennelier presents Sennelier's colors

20th Feb 2016

Sennelier extra-fine soft pastels are water soluble and have an unparalleled depth, luminosity and intensity; they are made of 100% pure pigments, with no clay, binders or fillers, so that even a gentle stroke delivers a solid, powerful line of brilliant color. They are lightfast enough to hold color for centuries. The pastels come in a sturdy, varnished and foam-lined box. Standard size sticks come in 525 colors, including 25 iridescent - the largest range available.

Developed in 1887 for Cézanne and the Impressionists, Sennelier Artists' Oils have been the standard of excellence for over 125 years. These Artists’ Oil paints are made with the highest quality pigments, and allow for maximum pigment load and color intensity. Their reformulated consistency retains its unique creaminess while providing heavier body for greater versatility and ease of blending. The pure safflower oil creates an unsurpassed resistance to yellowing, and the unique non-glossy “French Finish” satin sheen guarantees the paint’s lasting quality.

Sennelier uses an authentic formulation of the classic egg tempera used by artists since the Renaissance. It is a perfect choice for artists seeking a highly pigmented, professional quality alternative to oil paints. Sennelier Egg Tempera are water-soluble, highly archival, and made with premium pigments assuring unequaled vibrancy and brilliance for detailed and complex effects such as fine art painting, restoration and icon painting. They are water-resistant and non-yellowing, with a satin matte finish.
