Bad news / good news !

Hi all,
I feel that I owe you to say that I have cancelled the project of making my own lead white.

The reason why, is that a Danish lurker was so kind to inform me that I could order Chremnitz White / Michael Harding, from a Danish artist color shop.

Do'nt tell anybody, but I managed to order and get it in the mail, the real thing.

Thank you, Christoffer of Copenhagen, for helping me out on this.

I like the stuff, it has another feel than Titanium White, it is warmer and blends softly. I especially like it for skin color.

By the way, I managed to make a handfull of lead white powder and I will mull my own paint one of these days and try not to lick my fingers.
