These folks are mighty green. Not only do they have the solvent-free
system of oil painting but 100% of the electric power used at
their shop is purchased through the renewable power option. They
have purchased more efficient filling equipment and reduced energy
consumption by 71%. Almost all of the machinery is reconditioned/recycled--one
of the fillers was built in 1951. The acrylic resin is produced
in a factory about 2 miles from the shop, the bee farm that makes
the honey for watercolor and gouache is about 30 miles away--so
even the bees are local. The walnut oil comes from neighboring
California to cut down on transportation pollution. The factory
waste water used for cleaning equipment is recycled and reused
for 2 weeks before it is collected for EPA certified disposal.
The paperboard box packaging is all made with post-consumer recycled
paper waste as is the paper used for trifolds. The cadmium pigments
are by-products of zinc manufacturing which are converted from
a toxic heavy metal into a "biologically unavailable"
pigment that can be disposed of in garbage as solid waste. Graham
products are also available in Canada through selected outlets,
and www.artpurveyors.com will export from the USA to anywhere
in the world.

"Every artist deserves
the finest color that can be created" -Art Graham

A Traditional Approach to Color
Making
The use of color to create art dates
back over 30,000 years when plant and animal matter were smeared,
blown and dabbed on cave walls to create some of the most beautiful
and vibrant images in the history of art. As
late as the 18th century it was left to the artist or his apprentice
to create colors for their own use. These colors were often tailored
to specific painting techniques and utilized a wide variety of
natural materials for pigments and vehicles. By
1740 the commercial manufacture of paint began, leaving artists
more time to concentrate on their work and beginning a process
of standardization for artists' color which has been warmly embraced
by some and vigorously opposed by others.
For M. Graham & Co. the tradition
of color making is one of hand craft. No
amount of industrial standardization can approach the level of
quality which an adept craftsperson achieves...colors created
slowly, filled by hand and carefully inspected for flaws at every
stage. The result is noticeably brighter, more intense, stronger
and easier to use than standard commercial offerings.
This level of excellence can only exist
in an environment where quality is paramount.
|
|
M. Graham & Co. offers artists
a safer, more environmentally friendly method for traditional
oil painting than any other line of artist's color!
