Description
Rive Gauche oil paints are made with a special type of oil that dries to a satin finish, twice as fast as conventional oil paints. They also retain the characteristic buttery texture of fine oil colors, which allows the artist to work twice as fast. Rive Gauche oil paints also have a lower tendency to yellow than traditional oil paints.
Made by Sennelier, Rive Gauche is named after the Left Bank of
Paris where Sennelier was founded in 1887. The special property of
these oil paints is that they dry to a satin finish, twice as fast
as conventional oil paint, while retaining the characteristic
buttery texture of fine oil colours. This allows the artist to work
twice as fast Since they are made with safflower oil like the
Sennelier artists-grade paints they also yellow much less than
traditional oil colours.
