I use the M.Graham paints and have worked with Art Graham, a passionate, intelligent and meticulous artisan. These walnut based paints are slow drying, taking up to a week to dry on the canvas. I find this to be one of the stronger suits of the paint. I work alla prima, and want the paint to stay wet. They have a high pigment intensity, the dioxazine is the most potent dark I have ever used, walnut oil is considered a superior vehicle, and they are relatively inexpensive. The only drawback I have found is that the colors available are somewhat limited.
