Later this month I'm attending a one-day oil painting workshop given by a local artist. It's a beginner's class, but I'll take anything to do with oil painting right now. (I'm finding it is the most convenient medium for me to work with now that I am home with my first baby - I can come back to a piece hours later and just pick up where I left off.)
The workshop will be focused around creating paintings with a limited "primary triad" palette consisting of only cyan, magenta, and yellow. The instructor has recommended the following (Art Spectrum brand):
- Cadmium Yellow (PY35)
- Permanent Magenta (PV19, PV23)
- Phthalo Blue (PB15:3, PW21)
I will be using my M. Graham & Co. paints, plus Michael Harding's Magenta - PR122 is too much of a glorious pigment to go unused. :)
