an excerpt from the January 2004 Mid-South
Watercolorists, Inc. newsletter:
Test of M. Graham Paints
by Barry Lindley (6/02-11/02, updated November 2003)
M. Graham & Company is a relatively young (about 12 years)
American company, based in Oregon and dedicated to producing
the highest quality professional artists' paints. Diana Graham,
co-founder, is a great source of information and a great sport
about responding to questions from artists. The price of their
paints is very reasonable, and my experience with them, as well
as the latest ratings by Hillary Page and by Bruce MacEvoy (www.handprint.com),
suggests that the quality is generally equivalent to the best,
such as Daniel Smith, Winsor Newton, or parts of the Holbein
line, and much superior to DaVinci, for example...
...The company manufactures watercolor, gouache, acrylic
and oils, but my tests to date have been with watercolor and
gouache.
I have done fairly systematic tests and comparisons, and
have used some of the paints extensively over the past 18 months.
Bottom line: I am quite pleased with the paints, especially the
cobalt, ultramarine and phthalo blues, and would consider most
of the paints as tested as very adequate substitutions (in terms
of pigment load, texture and handling) for my W&N, probably
better in general than other lines I have tried, including Holbein,
Maimeri, Schmincke, Sennelier, DaVinci. I am currently giving
a number of slots on my regular working palette to M. Graham
paints.
I have checked hue subtleties, transparency, and the lifting
both with a gentle water-filled brush and with heavy scrubbing.
I have not made any light-fastness tests, relying on the pigment
designations to cover that, but all the paints have top light-fastness.
I filled pans to test for drying and re-wetting with a few of
the paints (that is one test that DaVinci fails badly). M. Graham
are not necessarily out to duplicate W-N paints, but rather to
produce paints of equivalent top quality, perhaps with their
own special characteristics. Thus, hues may be slightly different.
After some time working with the paints, I have found the
handling quality of M. Graham paints excellent-they spread very
smoothly, stay workable for a long time on the palette, and flow
evenly. Three full pans that I filled and left only lightly covered
on my work table for about a year have remained quite fresh,
no cracking or drying or shrinkage, as workable as when new out
of the tube. These handling qualities are superior to those of
W&N or DS paints in general. Of special note is the consistency
of handling among the different paints. W&N, for example,
handle quite differently from one paint to another. It is possible
some painters might prefer more individuality and variance in
how their paints handle....and my general impression is that
many of the M. Graham paints are relatively less granular than
their counterparts in W&N and slightly more staining. I did
notice with Azo Yellow that it is so smooth that it can be spread
thickly enough that it does not dry very readliy on the paper-the
counterpart to the 'bronzing' or thick shiny patches with over-heavy
applications of the W&N or DS paints. M. Graham uses honey
in their base, as do some of the classical European manufacturers,
such as Sennelier. This does not invite more depredations by
critters; all watercolors have some tasty ingredients.
I have noted some mold if I left my palette very wet and
closed for a week or two, especially on the Napthol Red. This
happens also with some paints from other brands. Diana Graham
tells me: "Our color is designed not to need to be kept
in closed damp containers-thus greatly reducing the chance of
mold but the spores are everywhere (usually airborne-rarely in
the paint itself)"....
