Abstract

This invention provides a water-reducible oil paint, capable of maintaining a stable suspension of coloring pigment during storage, and having the mechanical, coloring and drying properties of a traditional oil paint. The oil paint comprises a pigment, a base gel composition and an emulsifier- amine soap composition; the base gel composition comprises a traditional drying or semi-drying oil or oil acid, a nonionic or mixed nonionic-anionic emulsifier, having an HLB value in the range of from about 8 to about 18, and a thixotropic gel stabilizer; the emulsifier-amine soap composition comprises at least one amine soap of an acid, selected from mono- and di-unsaturated drying oil acids, and a nonionic or mixed nonionic-anionic emulsifier. The preferred embodiment of this invention is a high-solids artists' oil paint.
