FREE Oil Painting for Beginners- Pigments
There are many kinds of pigments and the choice of
colours remains with the individual. If you choose to pick your
own then these notes will come in handy.
* Ochre's: These are earth colours and are a must for landscapes
* Sienna: Are earth pigments too
* Chrome Pigments: These are dominant and bright. They are
more expensive
* Cadmium pigments: Are very dominant
* Prussian Colours: Such as Prussian blue or Hookers green
are very dominant
* Cobalt pigments: Are medium in their intensity. Cobalt
blue is a versatile colour for sky and water.
* Whites: We have the choice of Flake White, Zink White or
Titanium White. Titanium White has a better coverage. Colour mixing
is better explained in the ebook 'Painting Landscapes'.
