Understanding Golden’s Marketing Priorities, Part 1: Williamsburg Oils

Support for Williamsburg Oils Matures Under GOLDEN Leadership

From the beginning, Williamsburg Handmade Oil Colors was guided by Carl Plansky’s desire to create the richest and most beautiful colors imaginable. It was then and remains today a painter’s paint in every way, infused with a painter’s sense of touch and tone.

Because so many artists have embraced Williamsburg Handmade Oil Colors, it is clear this paint has moved past Carl’s initial vision into something ultimately owned by the artists who use and depend on its unique expression of color.

Manufactured in the United States, under the committed stewardship of Golden Artist Colors, Williamsburg Handmade Oil Colors continues to be made by dedicated paint makers in small batches. Offering one of the most extensive and unique lines of handmade oil paints in the world, including the famous Native Italian Earth Colors and custom blends, Williamsburg is competitively priced and now readily available through distribution.

And don’t forget the Golden Artist Colors’ Technical Support Services team. With extensive knowledge in both acrylic and oils, our extremely dedicated group of artists with decades of experience is always ready to assist you and your customers with our paints.

To further support the Williamsburg Handmade Oils line since the partnership just over a year ago, GOLDEN is introducing a number of new items and enhancements to the merchandising materials available, further warranting your interest in the brand. Here are some of the recent improvements:
