NEW COLOUR COLLECTIONS
To mark celebrating 40 years of trading, Michael Harding is introducing new colours to their oil paint range. Starting with release the Tunbridge Wells Selection, named after the UK town in which Michael Harding first started producing oil paints, this introduces 10 vibrant and unique colours.
The second collection, Brick Lane, is another selection of 10 unique colours that are in tribute to the time period Michael Harding was based within the iconic street as he first begun to start mass producing his oil colours.
The new 3rd collection, The Whitechapel collection pays tribute to a formative chapter in Michael Harding’s paint-making journey. From 1999 to 2010, he worked out of a small space at 88 Mile End Road in Whitechapel, East London. That very address was also once home to the British Captain James Cook. Cook and his family lived at both 88 and 89 Mile End Road, but reportedly detested their time there due to the overpowering smell from a nearby gin distillery — the same building Michael would later use for making oil paint.
The ten colours in this set reflect not only the physical environment of Whitechapel, but also the experimental spirit of that period in his career. As with every Michael Harding collection, the name reflects more than just the palette — it tells the story behind it.
Available in 40ml, 60 & 225ml tubes.
