"After painting with acrylic paints for many years I was excited to find Occhuzzie Paint Company. I have switched to oils because of the quality of the oil paints from Occhuzzie surpasses all other oils I have used before switching to acrylics. The colors are phenomenal, vibrant and since painting with Occhuzzie my art has reached a new intensity which I am ecstatic about. I look forward to many more paintings with Ochhuzzie Paint Company."
- Laura Foley, Loyal Occhuzzie Customer
"Occhuzzie Paints are now a cherished addition to my palette. The paints I have purchased hold their own in terms of superior quality in the arena of high grade artist's pigments. Even more, simply supplying paints is only the beginning. Lance has been attentive to my needs, always answering my questions in the field of paint chemistry, pigment, and handling. Occhuzzie Paint Company is a trustworthy source of consistent and reliable materials. I hold them in complete confidence."

"I love the beautiful colors and texture of Occhuzzie oil paints -- and I wish I'd discovered the ease and economy of using paint in jars instead of tubes years ago! they're great in a studio classroom setting for teaching oil painting to beginner and advanced students."
- Prof. Sharon Orleans Lawrence
As an artist, it is important that the products I use have extreme color clarity and archival quality. Currently, I am painting the best work of my career using Occhuzzie's Flake Whites.
They are smooth, creamy and retain their brilliance without yellowing. They allow me to mix flesh and other tomes without losing color saturation or value.

I am an oil painter that lives on a boat. I paint on my flybridge which can be very trying because my studio is very affected by the weather. I live in Hilton Head Island so the weather here is mostly very hot. I have been using a variety of paints but they all dry out really fast. I find I am constantly putting out more color. Then last year, I went to SCAD and found the Occhuzzie booth. I bought a Napthol Red because I use that color the most and I wanted to test out this paint in a jar. It turned out to be the best paint I ever bought. It stays fresh no matter what the weather is and really adds dimension to my work. I am looking forward to getting the rest of the colors on my palette.
Thank you Occhuzzie Paint Company!

Occhuzzie's whites literally melt into my painting, affording me a great deal of tinting control and blending
capabilities. The stuff is simply beautiful, and candidly I have tried every lead on the market. There is
nothing like it. I paint over a traditional red oxide underpainting and build my paintings from dark to light,
and the Occhuzzie leads make that process more successful for me because of their translucency, handling
and tinting control. Occhuzzie also has an authentic Charcoal & Graphite paint that are distinctively
different from other colors on the market, and I think I am very literate of the paint offerings today.
OPC's Turkey Umber is a beautiful color as well, and tints out into some really sensual grays. If I were a
landscape painter it would be a staple.
