Shiva Signature Oils

As part of a very colorful and interesting paint history, Shiva® Signature Oil Paints are a superior brand of oil paint that is made right here at our factory in the United States, alongside our hand–crafted line of BEST Easels.

Richesons is committed to producing the “Best of the Best.” The return of Shiva has generated positive response from some of the top oil painters in the country, including Ramon Kelley, Daniel Greene and Kate Palmer.

Shiva uses only pure, artist–grade dry pigments, ground to each one’s own correct degree of fineness and then formulated individually under exacting laboratory controls. They are guaranteed to be permanent, free from darkening, yellowing, fading and cracking, and are bound with the finest grade of alkali–refined linseed oil available.

Please remember when viewing the on-line color charts, that colors will vary from monitor to monitor and are based on an estimate of the mid-range of the color. However, the range of values for each color is quite broad, and should only be used as a general reference tool. Printed and handmade color charts using actual Shiva Signature Oils can be ordered from your favorite Art Supply Dealer.
