Rublev colours
Natural Pigments, a company developed by Georg O’Hanlon, is creating Rublev paint. He generously participates in the seminars, social media and the Natural Pigment forum. George has an enormous knowledge of Pigments, Media, Durability and Lightfastness.
Rublev is called “genuine natural and historical pigments such as those used by the ancient masters” and “without additional products.” These paintings are not the true deal: they are pigment and oil only.
One of the principal distinction when you deal with these paints is how different they are. They are all different. The features of each pigment are theirs, their feelings and texture themselves. A Raw Umber, for example, can be much more gravely than an Ultramarine Blue and that’s simply because of the pigment used. There are not many suppliers of paint who do so, and Langridge is the only other one to remember. Most producers of oil paint offer paint with a consistent texture.
But one thing where Rublev remains truly unique is their focus on historic pigments. They have always aimed to provide us with the pigments of the old masters and make sure only the genuine historic pigments are used. They have mostly single pigment paints in their range: meaning that they don’t offer convenience mixes. On each tube you will find the single pigment used.
Recently, certain new pigments such as cadmiums have also begun to be stored.
Rublev paint has lovely colours to offer due to its “honest” pigment characteristics. The paints are consistent and flexible, but ultimately they seem to be very simple to burn. Few pigments are very fluid and some are much harder.
Camel artist oil colour
The pure, consistency and durability of Camel Artists’ Oil Colors are known.
They have the highest pigment content, a microscopic soil, and a special plasticizer, mixed with yellowing oils, which gives a smooth, non-shaking film on the lining. They come in 67 vibrant colours.
However, what strategy are you to use? Oil paints? Watercolours?
You must be vigilant when selecting what colours to use, whether you need strong colours, transparent paints, soft colours, or dark strokes, and how they behave when they dry.
Painting with Oil Paints
When we think of lessons in art, we also think about our school classes with poster paints and dense paper covers.
However, relatively few artists use poster paintings since they favour methods of oil painting.
The Van Eyck Brothers developed oil paint during the 15th century and oils were used over the years and are used in many museum buildings. Many of them used oil for the work of artists including Van Gogh, Braque, Monet, Courbet, Toulouse-Lautrec and Delacroix.
Pigments and drying oil are composed of oil paints. That said, we need literally to suggest it hardens when we say that oil paint dries. That’s what complicates the use of it.
There are few you would have to obey to avoid crashing, if you want to learn how to paint with oil paints. The properties of oil paints should be understood.
One of the main rules is to expect each paint layer to dry for several weeks.
This ensures that a piece would be completed by a number of meetings. Before you paint your art work later with thicker layers you will have to draw your ideas with charcoal and begin with very thin layers. Sometimes artists apply to their picture of oil a glaze. Glazing will provide you with outstanding lighting performance.
It can seem very crazy to wait too long to correct any errors. Nevertheless, designers who do not obey this maxim end up with a cracked canvas.
When the surface of the sheet is in contact with the end, it hardens more quickly than the layers below. This ensures that the top layer cracks with time. Therefore, you cannot paint over a sheet immediately.
Painting with oils will take a while to get used to it. You must know how it operates and how it presents the possibilities.
Soon you can see that many artists have chosen this medium for their masterpieces. The paint will create unbelievably realistic tones and translucent effects with oils. Impressionist painters worked with spectacular oil finishes, showing every tiny brushstroke and each bristle touching the paint.
