Brilliant Orange is one of those colors you quickly learn to appreciate. The shade has a warm tone and blends harmoniously into sophisticated color combinations. Depending on how it’s applied, the paint has a semi-opaque finish and allows for both subtle transitions and well-defined areas. When mixed, it remains stable and influences other colors in a controlled manner without overpowering them or making them appear dull. It has proven particularly effective for mixing and layering. A color for painters who work with intention and value depth, durability, and expressiveness.
Michael Harding oil paints are handcrafted in England by the artist of the same name using traditional methods. They are characterized by a high pigment concentration and a pleasantly buttery consistency.
The paints can be applied smoothly, offer controlled flow properties and are suitable for glazing and impasto painting methods. The majority of the shades are rubbed with linseed oil, selected white shades are produced with safflower or walnut oil in order to achieve optimum color properties.

Michael Harding oil paints are manufactured in England. At the heart of each paint is its respective pigment, which is used in high concentration. Most of the paints are ground with linseed oil; selected shades of white use other oils to specifically enhance their respective color properties.
The consistency, flow, and drying properties vary depending on the pigment used. As a result, each shade has its own unique character and, depending on the color, can be applied as a glaze, as an opaque paint, in thin layers, or in a thick, impasto style.
Careful project preparation lays a solid foundation for controlled paint application in oil painting. Even before you begin painting, you should ensure that the painting surface, paints, and technique are well-coordinated.
The surface should be suitable for oil painting and properly prepared. Canvas, wood, or painting panels are usually primed with a suitable primer to prepare the surface for further work and to minimize excessive penetration of the binder into the substrate.
The choice of materials also plays an important role. Suitable oil paints, appropriate painting media, and clean tools make it easier to work with precision. It is advisable to plan the color palette in advance and take into account characteristics such as transparency, pigment type, and oil content.
Thorough preparation makes the creative process easier and gives you the freedom to focus on color, expression, and your artistic choices.
Working with oil paints requires patience, the building up of layers, and deliberate choices. Depending on the technique, paints can be applied as thin glazes, opaque layers, or thick, impasto strokes. In doing so, the properties of the pigments used and their drying characteristics should be taken into account.
When working in multiple layers, the classic principle of “fat over lean” applies. The lower layers of paint should be thinner and contain less oil, while subsequent layers may have a higher oil content. This takes into account the varying drying and stress conditions within the paint layer.
It is advisable to allow sufficient time between individual layers of paint. Depending on the pigment, layer thickness, and environmental conditions, thin glazes can be worked over sooner, while opaque or impasto layers require more time. The underlying coat should be sufficiently dry before applying the next coat.
Appropriate painting media can be used to specifically influence flow characteristics, transparency, gloss, or drying behavior. The selection, dosage, and application should be based on the medium used and the manufacturer’s instructions.
Depending on the thickness of the layers, the pigments, the type of oil used, and environmental conditions, it may take a long time for an oil painting to dry completely. Varnishes should be applied according to the manufacturer’s instructions and only after the paint layers have dried sufficiently.
Sealing is not absolutely necessary for oil paintings, but can be useful to protect the surface and unify the color effect. Whether and when an oil painting is sealed depends on the technique, layer structure and desired surface effect.
Do not apply a final sealant during the painting phase. Oil paints need time to cure completely. Sealing too early can disrupt the drying process and lead to tension or cloudiness over time.
As a temporary solution, a retouching varnish can be used if necessary. It is suitable for temporarily enhancing the color saturation of dull areas and provides light protection, but can still be removed. It should be used sparingly and only after the paint layer has dried on the surface.
A final varnish should not be applied until the oil painting has dried completely. Depending on the thickness of the layers, the pigments, and the oil content, this can take anywhere from several months to a year. A suitable topcoat can protect the surface from dust and dirt and create a uniform finish. Whether it provides UV protection depends on the product used; refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for details.
Oil paintings should be handled and cared for properly. To protect the surface, it is recommended that finished works be kept away from direct sunlight, high humidity, and extreme temperature fluctuations.
To clean the item, a soft, dry cloth is usually sufficient for gently removing dust. Avoid using damp cloths, cleaning agents, or chemical substances, as they can damage the paint layer or any applied varnish.
Displaying the artwork in a frame or using another form of protection can help preserve it. If you are unsure or if more extensive cleaning is required, it is recommended that you consult a restoration or conservation specialist.
Proper care helps preserve the colors and surface of the oil painting.
