Michael Harding Oil Paint 40ml Whitechapel Set of 10
The new set from Michael Harding, Whitechapel - Cook's Yard, pays tribute to a formative chapter in Michael’s paint-making journey. From 1999 to 2010, he worked out of a small space at 88 Mile End Road in Whitechapel, East London.
That very address was once home to Captain James Cook. Cook and his family lived at both 88 and 89 Mile End Road, but reportedly detested their time there due to the overpowering smell from a nearby gin distillery — the same building Michael would later use for making paint.
The ten colours in this set reflect not only the physical environment of Whitechapel, but also the experimental spirit of that period in his career. As with every Michael Harding collection, the name reflects more than just the palette — it tells the story behind it.
Previous sets include Tunbridge Wells and Brick Lane. Cook’s Yard continues the series, with Brecon Beacons to follow. Each collection is available either as a complete set or as individual colours.
