Why Oil Paint Is So Expensive | So Expensive
Oil paint is simple. At its most basic, it’s just a mixture of oil and pigment. But depending on the color and quality, a liter of this paint could cost you $285 to $1,100.
While the rise of oil paint is associated with the Renaissance, paintings using poppy-seed oil have been dated as far back as seventh-century Afghanistan. So what is it that makes this paint so special? And why is it so expensive?

Why Oil Paint Is So Expensive | So Expensive
"We quickly ran out of mummies to use." That's a sentence you don't hear in normal, everyday conversations.
How are we supposed to get the fleash tones now?
Well at least now we dont have to worry about mummies coming back to life
....ikr

"We quickly ran out of mummies to use." Never thought I'd hear those words.

Wtf ikr
i thought "maybe they realized how creepy/ unmoral/disrespectful that was..." NOPE
Literally
Now I know why there’s cameras above the oil paint section at Michael’s.
I used to work in a craft store, and the highest "loss" (shoplifted) areas were almost always the fine art paints/markers, and jewelry supplies. Partly because the cost adds up fast if you want the good stuff for your project... and partly because there's lots of small, valuable, easily re-sellable items you can shove into a bag or purse without breaking them.
Hey I was just there not to long ago.. lol 😆 wow thats so true.. people like to steal them..
Nerd!
Why were you looking for the cameras?
Booo michael’s.
Watching these blending machines and colourful oil stacks alone is extremely satisfying! ☺️

When i was a kid, i used to play with my uncle's oil paint Now i know why he was so angry at me
...I used to eat it...
trîck or trèat god bless you
Kobar Ariatna he was probably more worried because it’s SUPER toxic and dangerous, I’d be concerned if he was mad just because it was expensive lmao
Poor uncle
now i know why my mom smacked me so hard when i emptied all of my grandmas paints
The title: "Paint!" My brain: "Butter?"
A lot of the metals used to make some paint pigments are toxic and can have deadly reactions with very common chemicals. Some of the more “special” artists from history may even have gone a little crazy because of these metals and chemicals. Some oil paints can also take months or even years to fully dry. Oil painting is pretty hardcore
no compound make you "go crazy" permanently.
@@ChristopherGray00 Lead White (lead carbonate) did... And the cool think is that it wasn't just used in oil paints. It was also used in cosmetics. Mild lead poisoning is associated with aggressive/irritable behaviour, apathy, lack of empathy and finding grotesque things humours.... so "crazy" for short. And since organic lead compounds accumulate in both fat, nerve and bone tissue it is borderline permanent.
@@ChristopherGray00 organic mercury can make you go insane from permanent brain damage
@@andersjjensen lead can induce psychosis, many substances can induce that, but there is no known compound that can induce permanent psychosis. there is no literature that even suggests lead causes permanent psychosis.
@@ChristopherGray00 tbf they never said permanently
Oil paints: *takes so long to dry* Acrylic paint: *drys before you can even blend*
i literally have no idea why people love acrylic paints, its a bloody nightmare and tacky as all hell to work with
@@Ava-ns4go it's all i can afford atm. I adore oil over acrylic, used it in a summer class and until I can buy my own I have my 50 cent acrylic bottles to use.
Ava Parker find that I like acrylics more because I find myself over blending a lot. The drying allows a restraint that is welcomed for me. It’s also much more affordable. I also find that when working with oils, they have a tendency to become muddy due to their mixing capabilities. I usually mix a slow drying medium into my acrylics before I start painting. Also, more expensive acrylics, like golden acrylics or liquitex have a longer drying time.
ive been using acrylic all my art career, im 15 yo and pretty much a beginner so icant afford to use this stuff, i cant really show u my part but i have one on my insta of black panther @timtam_26
Pretty off topic but, your name ma lord. PREACH!

As someone who works in a paint department this was very interesting to watch; and learn about the processes and history of oil paint. I always wondered why the oil paint was more expensive I just figured it was only because of the extra durability and longevity.
As someone who’s seen paint before, I agree
@@michaelhiggins9791 As someone who's read satire, that was very amusing.

I've had the same 12 small tubes for a couple years now because they are (for how cheap they were, surprisingly) good and work best when thinned out. I've also bought those paint by number sets and found that most of those use oil paints. Some are actually good quality too
Well, I prefer to grind my own pigments and oils. It helps me really get in touch with the craft. The whole process of making the paint and then painting with it is very important and beautiful to me. But I don't do it professionally, so I'm not that focused on how long it holds up for

Lapis lazuli is a semi precious gemstone, and high quality lapis can cost also, no wonder it costs alot
Fun story. I bought a cool ring second hand. Big stone. Too small for me but I liked the blue. Turned out to be Lapis lazuli. Had it on my dresser for about three weeks. Liked looking at it. One Sunday morning, for no real reason, felt inclined to stuff it into my pocket. A lady at church, who is a bit of an outlier, shows up wearing a scarf exactly the color and speckling of the ring. I walk up to her, "This is for you." and hand her the ring. :) That was years ago and it still makes me smile.
Back in the 1800s they made a chemical process for mass producing the molecularly identical substance as lapis gemstone from scratch, so modern ultramarine is pretty cheap. And identical/better than the old stuff (purer, no rock mixed in, etc). There's zero reason anymore to use the actual gemstone other than being a hipster.
*painting is cursed/haunted* Us: “Omg how?1” Also us: “Haha dead mummies”

trxshy my last will and testament.
I've been painting off and on since the late 60s. There are many grades of oil paints for painters. Everything from 'student grade' to very expensive professional grades. Unless you are a top tier pro and command prices to match, you don't really need the best stuff. About 90% of painters will do just fine on anything they can get at Michaels, Dick Blick, or any of the other art supply outlet. Not every painting is done with a thought to posterity or lasting for hundreds of years. I consider the vast majority of my stuff as mostly homework assignments. They are a learning exercise, a way to try out and experiment with ideas. Not every brush stroke is magic. It's a step in an ongoing process. Some things work out and a lot doesn't. You can liken it to an athlete training. Training sessions are just that; training. Not every session is a Superbowl or World Series or the finals at Wimbledon. There are a lot of paintings that never see the light of day. Paint manufacturers put out a rainbow of colors, but you basically need less than a dozen. Really only three plus white. The primaries of a red, a blue, and a yellow. You can mix any color from those three and white.
Unexpectedly interesting and most informative. The only thing I already knew was the highly odiferous process of arriving at royal purple from certain marine snails. Tony Robinson covered that in his worst jobs in history series!

This explains why Van Gogh was struggling to even eat. My young dumb ass thought paints back in his day were cheap like they are today. It's a wonder he didn't die sooner. I totally get the ear thing now.
If you’ve ever seen a Van Gogh in person, he took that paint straight from the tube and laid the paint down really thick. He also had a suspected borderline personality disorder.
He had a tinnitus thats why he cut his ear off. He thought it would go away.

This is very informative, I have also oil paint bought last 2011 and still I haven't used it. planning to use it this year
This really puts our whole world into perspective. All these beautiful pigments that people have to put this much effort to reproduce in a physical sense just straight up exists as a natural thing in the rest of our world
There's plenty of very cheap botanical based pigments too that more closely follow those you see in nature normally, but they aren't very good for oil painting because they fade over months/years. For a flower that only exist sin spring, that doesn't matter to the plant. For a painter it is a big problem. So the expensive ones have to be usually mineral based.
Me: I ran out of flesh tones again.. 16-19 century artist: Time to grind up ol' Tut.

The artists did not know they were mummies, manufacturers were scamming them basically, and they stopped buying it when it got out. The equally good, normal brown also available at the time that they were pretending it was was just refined brown rust. Grabbing a mummy lying around was cheaper though that manufacturing a whole barrel of rust and cleaning and processing it etc.
Note to self: Don’t lick oil paintings made before the 19th century
Note to self: don’t lick oil paintings at all
do you just,,, lick paintings in ur free time or
@@flrtpyo1076 wait.. you don't?
Way to go gurrlll
True. Might accidentally lick cow peepee or snails.
Here's a few tips for new artists - Student grade paints are fine, but always buy professional grades of white and, to a lesser extent, yellows. White is actually your most used colour and will be in most of your mixes and it needs to be good and cover well. Basic palette? - start with just - Titanium White, Process Yellow, Magenta, Cyan and Burnt Umber and that's it. Add in a tube of Hooker's Green or Sap Green, unless you want to get through an awful lot of yellow! Apart from white, just about every colour you lay down will be a mix and the above will allow you to mix just about every colour there is.
I am close to having mastered, if that is possible, watercolor pigments. I have no desire to work in acrylics. I have intentionally refrained from oils on advise of a true master. It is coming close to the time to fulfill my personal dream of using a few, very high quality oil pigments to blend my own hues and shades of color for my work. I mostly prefer birds and or flowers. Solid, vibrant colors as well as the ability to produce buffered, gentle hues of colors are important. Acrylic seems too solid/dense/opaque to me, while oils seem deeper/more translucent/richer to me. Nice video, thank you for sharing!
watercolors are actually more expensive than oil paints by weight. but since it's meant to be diluted with water, you don't actually need a lot of paint.
Damn I guess I should oil paints
I used to use watercolor just like that instead of drying it then diluting it and I got so confused as to why I ran out so fast
I dont really know exaclty how watercolor is made, but the difference between cheap and expensive watercolor is much more noticable than other materials, even for begginers. So i believe that It must be much more difficult to produce
It’s the canvas or paper for watercolour that get to me
Finally Some one else Notices that..! Thats correct that we do not need a lot of Paint when it comes to watercolor and watercolor lasts longer then oil of the same weight that that does not justify it being more expensive. companies charge for the pigments and the ingredients used in a tube and not how much Paintings and Artist can get out of that tube. its just like saying that an oil Painter who paints very thin should be charged more for the same tube then an oil painter who Paints very thick since hell run out that tube sooner..!
And people still want *_free_* comissions........I mean wtf!!!
potato paradise Its because people who want free artwork don’t respect the art, don’t acknowledge the amount of hours of experience the artist has accumulated, and they also might just be assholes who don’t want to pay.
People feel entitled to free stuff in today’s society.

Paint suspension is usually plant seed based, linseed, safflower, walnut oil, sunflower and poppy seed. As it depends on how pigment chemical reacts to being mixed with suspension. Mineral solvents for cleaning Unless Turpentine is used. Watercolour is gum arabic and glycerin binded so not greasy but definitely dry matt.

Narrator: “Pigments cost lots of money.” People: **Puts tons of pigment in slime**
I swear ive seen some people use so much pigment you cant literally play with the slime anymore its such a waste
Professional pigments are made sometimes from very rare minerals that can be really expensive because they were over mined in the past or are really hard to find and produce at cheap costs. Mineral pigments often work better with paints than synthetic ones, but I know this from watercolor so it might be different for paints? But the pigment your probably using for slime is synthetic since a lot of mineral pigments for paints can actually be extremely toxic to touch or inhale!
Dino Dalmatian, oh! That makes sense, thank you for helping me understand! (Btw, I don't really do slime)
@@catsboots803 oh yeah sorry for being long and there is nothing wrong with using a little extra pigment for slime ;D

"They ran out of mummies to use" So that's how Cleopatra's mummy went missing? 🤔

Haha 😂
You know, sometimes I even wonder if she was ever mummified like the rest of the pharaohs, considering the circumstances of her death.
@@bananaborz1 how did she die?
@@zee166 Suicide through venom of a snake bite or a coated needle, either way still suicide.
"we quickly ran out of mummies" is such an underrated line.
Questions I never asked myself, but now I know.
