Gamblin: Elevating Oil Painting with Safe, High-Performance Materials
Gamblin is a leader in oil painting materials. Founded in Portland, Oregon, by artist and paintmaker Robert Gamblin, the company is known for its dedication to creating oil paints and mediums that meet the highest standards of quality and safety.
Gamblin Artist Oil Colours are made with high pigment loads and pure linseed oil. This offers artists rich colours with excellent workability.
Their student quality 1980 Oil Paints are made with the same pure pigments, with the addition of high quality filler. They also go through the exact same process of mixing, milling, filling, and hand labelling.
In addition to oil paints, Gamblin has developed a range of innovative products, such as fast-drying mediums and their Radiant and Transparent lines, offering unique colour options for artists who want to expand their palette. The brand is also known for its safer solvent, Gamsol, which is low in toxicity and odour, making it a studio-friendly alternative to traditional solvents.
Their attention to health and the environment extends to their eco-conscious practices, from responsibly sourcing pigments to minimising their carbon footprint during production. For example, once a year Gamblin recycles leftover pigments from their air filtration system to create a unique paint called Torrit Grey.
Gamblin’s combination of high quality materials and a commitment to safety makes them a trusted choice for both professional and aspiring oil painters.
We invited Pete Cole, president and owner of Gamblin, to the Jackson’s London Studio for our In Conversation series. In this film, he discusses their environmentally-conscious approach to colourmaking, and the importance of listening to artists and art museums to guide them in formulating their oil paints, varnishes, and mediums.
