Rembrandt Artists' Oil Color, 40ml, Vermilion

Rembrandt paint has always been among my favorites for quality, and this gold paint is outstanding. This is my second tube and I'm so excited to use it in my next paintings. It has a wonderful luminescence, when applied lightly it has a subtle glow that comes from within the painting. When applied more heavily it looks like old gold that has a delicate glow when the light hits it. So much fun to play with it!!

What can I say, Rembrandt paint is just great. I have used their product for many years now. When I make sky colors I like a lot of variations in it. So depending on the sky (time of day) I use a variety of blues along with the Kings blue we are talking about here. There is a mixture of Rembrandt, Kings Blue, and a bit of Manganese Blue Phth with white of course, that makes a beautiful lower horizon portion of the sky. I can also add Rembrandt Ultramarine blue to move it darker as it goes up into the sky. As a note, a touch of Cad. Orange can help knock down the blue a little in the highest parts of the sky if needed.
