Artists say...
"let me just say that the paints are wonderful ! - and they are facilitating my work... The consistency of your paints and the beautiful purity of your colors has facilitated the wet into wet painting... I am coming to understand the consistency of your paints, the purity of your colors and the way the colors you make relate to each other and your amber products as all part of a beautiful, sensitively designed whole. It all combines to form a wonderful painting system ! Thank you Jacques and thank you to the previous generations of your family for the sincerity and integrity of your efforts. They have produced tremendous results" J.H, US
"I am writing to say how delighted I am with your paints. The colours are really wonderful to use, so clear and bright they are a joy to use, especially for painting flowers." J.W, UK
"Thank
you for your paints. I recently started using Blockx on the suggestion
of another artist friend. I can honestly say that you "get what you
pay for" with your paints. The quality, consistency and flow of your
paints are stunningly superior to your competitors. I actually use less
paint because your paint is so much more pure. Thank you for your work."
P K, US.
I have never been able to achieve this degree of vibrancy or life from
such a yellow/pink mixture before. It is just one example of, or
case in point regarding, how your colors are helping me to get where I
want to go in my work. It occurred to me to say thank you."

"I
am sure you hear this often, but I wanted to say that your paints are
amazing. I have tried many other brands of oil paint over the years searching
for the best and the search is now over. There is no other brand of oil
paint that compares to the color brilliance and exceptional handling quality
of Blockx."

FINEST QUALITY ARTISTS'OILS COLORS
Still handground in the Blockx tradition with slowly rotating stone mills, our extra-fine artists' colors are made from the finest selection of pigments and oil.
Only pure pigment is used for maximum lightfastness, buttery consistency and easy mixing on the canvas itself.
All colors have a minimum lightfast rating 7 out of 8 on the blue wool scale. So they all can be considered perfectly lightfast.
Iron oxides, earths and blacks are ground with linseed oil. All other pigments are ground with poppyseed oil which is well-known for its lack of yellowing and the non-forming of wrinkles at the time of the drying.
How are your finest oils born?
