You might, rightly, ask “Why would I want that paint?” about some of our featured color ranges this spring. It’s a question we’re asked a lot, in fact!
Whether because of brand loyalty, an instructor’s recommendation or any number of other reasons, many folks never venture outside of their comfort zone when it comes to their materials.
So, for our painter friends who are looking for other possibilities for their palette, read on!
Daniel Greene Permanent Oil Colors
We were not looking to add another line of oil paint when we first tried Daniel Greene Professional Oil. In fact, we were sampling a recently revamped competing color line & brought out the Daniel Greene paints only because they were in our box of samples to try. By the end of our session, the competition had been set aside; the Daniel Greene oils had our full attention! What struck us immediately were the strong, clean mixes we could achieve. Try as we might, we could not produce a muddy color. Next, we were impressed with the small, but comprehensive, range of colors, particularly the unique offering of a warm & cool burnt umber & raw umber. We were sold, but why should you be?
If you are an oil painter, then chances are good that you’re interested in color. These paints are beautiful right from the tube, yet provide you with a nearly unlimited palette of equally beautiful color combinations. Daniel Greene oil paints are made domestically, too, so you’re supporting an independent, American business with your purchase of this fine paint.
Old Holland is a very well known name amongst oil painters, but amongst acrylic painters it may be an unfamiliar brand. Old Holland New Masters Classic Acrylics are formulated with the maximum concentration of the highest quality pigment, but so are many other lines of acrylic…. What makes Old Holland’s special? In two words: color selection.
The complete range of New Masters acrylics consists of 168 colors, many of which are completely unique. New Masters is a great mixer, too, so your color possibilities are nearly endless. Take a look at the hand painted color chart the next time you’re at Wet Paint & be amazed at the acrylic colors that you didn’t even know existed!
Where the first two ranges may not be household names, Golden Artists Colors is practically synonymous with acrylic paint. What you may not know, however, is that Golden produces a range of pre-mixed acrylic glazes.
Who cares?
You do, if you’re a fine or decorative artist that needs a slow drying, ready-to-use transparent acrylic paint film for your work! Golden Glazes can be made more intense with the addition of a few drops of Fluid Acrylic or they can be stretched to an even more transparent film by adding Golden Acrylic Glazing Liquid. Whether you’re faux finishing on walls or furniture, or blending slow drying glazes over your acrylic underpainting, if you already use acrylic paint you should try using Golden Glazes, too.
