atypical for the usual green gold pigment (PY129) which displays an average chroma of 60 across other brands but is quite typical for a mixture of phthalo yellow green (PG36) and a saturated yellow pigment.
I can’t make a purple but can make good browns and greys).
Finally, my 2004 lightfastness tests show that Rembrandt paints include a fugitive color (PY184) that is not reported in the marketing information, perhaps a quality control lapse by the pigment manufacturer; otherwise the lightfastness of the paints is excellent and accurately reported. The earth pigments are bright and transparent, with very nice color contrasts.
A313 Naples Yellow Extra.
The July, 2007 average unit price* at Cheap Joe's was $0.47, and average unit cadmium price was $0.61, an increase of 16% since 2004.). In some cases the website and the printed colour charts have noted different pigments so I have done my best to guess the best options.
Review by Ralph Bendelow.
Old Holland have a very strong pigment load so some of their colours are really intense, but they can have a tendency to 'bronze' if used at all thickly.
Among these, you'll have to discard several fugitive pigments, such as their benzimida yellow (PY120), isoindoline orange (PO69) or anthraquinone red (PR177). Old Holland Watercolours - Scarlet Lake Extra, Cadmium Red Deep, Scheveningen Purple Brown, Cadmium Red Purple, Carmine Lake Extra.
Overall this brand delivers consistent value for the money and is a pleasure to use. The July, 2007 average unit price* at Daniel Smith was $0.60, and average unit cadmium price was $0.83, an increase of 7% since 2004.). In masstone concentrations the paints often dry with a leathery bronze and are among the dullest paints I've seen, and in my 2004 lightfastness tests I found the vehicle in several mineral colors had a tendency to turn brown under light exposure, which makes me reluctant to put them to paper in the first place. Shielded from heat and temperature variations, the tube paints even the cobalt pigments stay usable for years without hardening or drying out. Sanders' and 'Betty Crocker' type, and his catalog letters are written by marketing staff. of paint and for that reason are also a little too soft and easy to dent (don't drop them!).
Jane, I tried your Jane's Gold recipe.
Several pigments used in the line monoazo yellows (PY1, PY74), naphthol reds (PO5, PR8,PR9) and disazopyrazolone orange (PO34) are relatively cheap pigments that are usually rated less lightfast; their cadmiums are the cheapest of any line reviewed here. Not normally something that you’d associate with a high-grade artist quality watercolor brand. New Masters Classic Acrylics were developed specifically to complement Old Holland's existing oil and watercolor ranges.
“wanky colour names” They do have some of the last remaining tubes of manganese blue PB33 lying around. According to manufacturer technical data (prepared in 1995), the scarlet, madder lake, carmine, red violet, golden ochre, sepia and russian green (hooker's green, PG8) formulations all used fugitive pigments, and for that reason alone could not be considered "professional" quality. ), the impermanent Blockx red (PR3) and Blockx yellow (PY1), and their US$31 genuine vermilion (PR106), which promptly turned a scabby brown on exposure to light. Old Holland has been making artist colors since 1664, making it one of the oldest continuously operating companies in the art supplies industry.
Several of the paints are also not at all what they seem: the cobalt violet paints (light and deep) are actually mixtures of cobalt blue deep (PB74), dioxazine violet (PV23) and quinacridone violet (PV19), a combination that is much less lightfast than genuine cobalt violet; viridian green deep is actually a mixture of viridian (PG18) with ultramarine blue (PB29); and 28 (!) The painting that I did using these colors has a sort of gentle harmony to it. Fool me twice ... Maimeri (reviewed June, 1999) - 72 colors, 72% of them single pigment paints. Most of the paints are made with high quality pigments and milled to a buttery or syrupy consistency; I rarely encounter vehicle separation or air bubbles in DS paints. Tube colors set up well in dry pans, and all colors are available in half pan form, though these have often dried to a large dimple that delivers less than the full amount.
I suggest you call him (the phone number is on his web site) to hear about his products firsthand. Finally, I found several Daler Rowney paints with significant lightfastness problems (especially in the convenience greens) and this fact is not accurately reported in the marketing brochure. Art materials manufacturers have to cope with continuous downward price pressures and business uncertainties, with profit driven acquisitions and unannounced product changes likely to accelerate over the next decade.
