October 2022: 

DANIEL SMITH Original Oil Colors and Mediums will soon be discontinued to make room for a future line expansion of DANIEL SMITH Water Soluble Oil Colors and Mediums, which are made with the same pigments and binder.

From the ingredients to the machines used to produce them, everything about these two product lines is the same. The only difference is the Linseed Oil and Safflower Oil have been modified to make the paint easily cleaned with water – no solvents required!

We greatly appreciate the support from oil painters over the past four decades and we hope you will try our Water Soluble Oil Colors soon – talk to your favorite art materials retailer.
