Hi fellow painters! I'm really excited to share with you my very first product review. I found myself in my fave local art store recently impulse buying a few tubes of paint when I realized I was scoring some great pigment that I had really enjoyed before. I don't always have the funds to be super picky or brand-loyal, but when I got home I looked through my paint stash and sure enough there were 3-4 other tubes of M. Graham that I didn't even register as already having.
Today I am psyched to share my findings when comparing M. Graham's oil paints to two other brands that I generally like. I'll show the thickness, smoothness, and concentration of this oil paint through a few simple tests that you can try at home with any new paint scores you run across as well.
Spoiler Alert: I LOVE these paints!
[UPDATE 4-4-2018: I am now an affiliate of Dick Blick art supplies so here are links to these featured M. Graham colors in case your local spot doesn't have them. Any DB purchase you make through my links goes towards supporting my YouTube channel. Thank you!

Have you ever used M. Graham before? What kind of oil paints are your fave?
