Michael Harding PM4 Beeswax Paste

Michael Harding PM4 Beeswax Paste

What happens when an artist can’t find the paints he dreams of? He makes his own. That’s exactly what Michael Harding did back in 1982.

Inspired by the rich, glowing hues in Rembrandt’s paintings, Harding set out to create oil paints that would match the depth, vibrancy, and texture of the Old Masters. The result? Michael Harding Artists Oil Colour – world-renowned for its unmatched quality, handcrafted excellence, and pigment-rich intensity.

Now you can explore Michael Harding’s growing range of oil paints, watercolours, mediums, and varnishes – all created with the same passion for quality.

Used by leading institutions like the Royal College of Art and loved by artists like David Hockney, these paints are more than just materials – they’re a return to the heart of painting.

With Michael Harding paint like the masters - your brush deserves this!
