I want to thank Sharon Knettell for nudging me towards the Michael Harding paint. I am very pleased with it and have been working very happily with these Michael Harding colors.
burnt umber
venetian red
indian red
raw umber
raw sienna
yellow ochre
naples yellow deep
naples yellow light
ivory black
flake white # 2(lead and a little zinc)
I just ordered the viridian and the cobalt violet deep. I hope to get the cerulean blue and the vermillion later. I tried all their whites and like the flake white # 2 the best. I'm using a little cold pressed linseed oil with a few drops of damar if I need to. But usually I don't need anything with this paint. I like the fact that these earths go well together and are relatively inexpensive. The reds are bright, the burnt umber is very pink, the raw umber is warm, the naples yellow deep is almost orange, the raw sienna is toward the green side. I can't wait to see their viridian . I have never tried any cobalt violet so this will be a new experience.
