Gamblin Artist Grade Oil Color, 150ml, Titanium White

For those who work with Gamblin paints you're already aware of the great quality for both students and professional painters. For those wanting to try Gamblin out for their first time I highly recommend them. Their paints have great pigmentation and no unnecessary fillers or additives. These definitely rank among the top high quality paint brands to work with, most of my paints are Gamblin and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

I have always liked this paint... and yes, I do like Gamblin, and yes, they are trustworthy... but be sure to understand what the code number/letters are on the back, and how to use them. For this one, I believe it will be pg17 for your info. This color is great because it is a raw looking pigment when you use it (unlike, say, pthalos), and not a rich one. As you progress, you will find that using only rich pigments, and straight from the tube, will make your art look like a cartoon. As a novice/hobbiest you may like this, but as you progress, you will want more. This is a good pigment to mix with. Still, this is a strongly opaque paint. A good tilting paint for this reason is viridian... which is costly, but a great paint to use for this reason. This color will shift the overall color, and viridian will tilt it. Ultramarine blue is a cheaper way to tilt it because it is also transparent, it won't take over the mix, and also a cool color... plus it is much cheaper.
