Painting on Location Pigments
Mixing oil colors of a limited palette.
 


This color wheel was made with three colors plus white in 1996.
The three colors used to make this color circle were,
 Bocour Cobalt Violet, a cool transparent magenta, a warmer magenta is Acra Violet in acrylics and D.S has Quinacridone magenta. Bocour's cobalt violet makes Ult. Blue so well you can do without it.
Grumbacher Thalo Blue
Old Holland Gamboge

Today, 10-30-04, ten years later, the Pigment Color Index Number is important but I think the system need some renovation. Here is today's pigment choices for the primary triad.
Primary transparent triad Indian Yellow PG10F duel-toned orange/side and Indian Yellow PY153 as the brown/side, both dioxine nickel complex.
Magenta Quinacridone PR122
Cyan Phthalocyanine PB15.3 or 4
I'll be.. the same pigments :) Except there is no more Cobalt Phosphate pigment.


The three colors used to make this color chart were,
 Old Holland Gamboge
Grumbacher Thalo Blue
Danial Smith or Old Holland Magenta, dioxotetrahydroquinolinoacridine is quinacradine PR122
Made by my friend Scott,
he also uses no black pigment.
As you can see, he doesn't need to.


1-27-08, I'm a little late on this update, I think it was in 2005 when a new color came out that is a perfect magenta, except it's fugitive.
It's called Opera, here's the link Opera pigment

How to make neutral dark colors?
How to mix new colors with a limited palette. These are acrylic paints.




Column 1 down. Cad Red Med. plus Thalo Blue. NEUTRAL
Column 1 down, Cad Red Light plus Thalo Blue.
Column 1 down, Burnt Sienna plus Thalo Blue
Column 2 down, Thalo Green plus Magenta. NEUTRAL
Column 2 Thalo Blue plus Cad Red. NEUTRAL
Column 2 Thalo Blue plus Cad Red making neutral gray again
Column 3, Ult. Blue plus Burnt Sienna. = Burnt Umber
Column 3, Ult Blue plus Burnt Umber. NEUTRAL
Column 4, Dioxazine. Purple plus Green Oxide. NEUTRAL
Column 4, Thalo Blue plus Red Oxide. NEUTRAL
No Image, Ultramarine Blue plus Red Oxide. NEUTRAL




Expand the palette without adding new tube colors.




Lemon Yellow Light will not make Bt. Umber or Bt. Sienna or Orange or Cad. Red Light Med.
Gamboge will not make Cad Orange, Cad. Red Light or Lemon Yellow Light.



Three transparent Oil Yellows.
Old Holland Yellow Orange Lake Extra, makes a fine Cad Red hue with Magenta (oil) or Acra Crimson (acrylic).
Old Holland Yellow Brown Lake Extra, makes a fine Dark with Ult. Blue
Old Holland Gamboge Lake Extra, Gamboge is a translucent pigment between the two.



#36.3 Transparent yellow-green, like Rich Green Gold Nickel Chelated Azo PG10
Or a #36.7 Green Gold Azomethine or Irgazine Green PY129 all will mix with Thalo green to make a chip color simulation
of Hooker's green. A pigment that uses black in it's color. It is a hard color to mix without having to resort to a third color pigment.




How do you make a Cad Medium Deep, blood Red deep?
Cad Red Medium and Magenta.



If I had only 6 oil colors to paint with, let it be these 6.
Gamboge
Cad Yellow Light
Cad Orange Medium
Cad Red Light
Quinacridone Magenta, PR122
Thalo Blue, PB15.3, Some brands just call this color PB15, New 3-15-8, Old Holland makes a transparent Manganese blue PB33
Then Ultramarine Blue, Purple, Thalo Green, Burnt Umber, Burnt Sienna



These are the reds and oranges that are new in acrylics for 2000



HOW TO MAKE BROWNS




COMPARE MANGANESE BLUE TO CERULEAN BLUE

It's all about the hue and it's transparency or opaqueness.
The primaries are the most important colors, cyan being one of them. I think it's a delicate line where the perfect hue is. The clear sky above includes the perfect cyan primary. It also includes magenta near the sun and yellow near the horizon.

Manganese is the densest cyan opaque, denser then cerulean. Old Holland made a transparent cyan in 2008 that is excellent. Copper can match the rest of the sky. But it's more than that. Copper includes green also and manganese doesn't. Copper can include the whole sky with three different hues.

Opaque Manganese on the other hand is a one trick pony, that one trick being the perfect neutral cyan primary. The manganese blue hue being produced from phthalocyanine is being made more like a transparent cerulean, but even greener. The manganese pure dry pigment is spot on cyan. Opaque cerulean blue dry pigment is sightly on the magenta side in mass and green side as an undertone. This is why I want the transparent manganese blue in watercolor, acrylic and oil paint. O.H. has it only in oil for now 3-15-8. It has no dual-toned qualities, I don't need that in this case.

Raul, on another forum said,
"It is the only blue that I've found that will take repeating scrappings and repaintings and not dull down. It mantains its beautiful blue delicacy."

TIN OXIDE is black and fires white, mix tin oxide and cobalt oxide with heat and you get cerulean blue. You can get a similar blue by mixing and firing tin and copper chalcanthite with quartz sand like the Egyptians did, this made their highly prized frit colors, which they traded through the Phoenician's, ancient world wide.

Since an atom was taken out of copper which made it possible to mix with a sulfur based color like flake white the horizon has widened. Now the transparent copper cyan has wider possibilities. The same pigment used to mix black can now be used to make a sky color. The sky color is three different colors, depending on how close it is to the zenith or the horizon. I'm happy making the bluer zenith color sky by adding a little purple or magenta PR122.

It's the transparent horizon sky color I am searching the best pigment for. The transparent copper based Phthalocyanine with a Chlorinated Copper Phthalocyanine seems to be this color. I would also like it as an opaque pigment. Mixing an opaque white into copper it is one answer, but as Raul said, it's handling properties are not as strong as the full strength pigment.

What is that element going to be.. Copper, tin and cobalt or manganese. Maybe it will be a mixture of all three. 2008 - It's transparent Manganate PB13 by Old Holland!

The Real Color Wheel is based on this, elements=crystal=color.
36 RCW colors of 10 degrees each.
Each section color has 10 variables to it's darkest perceptual color before becoming black in the middle.
Each color section has pigments lettered from 'a' as the outside pure or tint color, 'b' is darker than 'a' in the same section, 'c' is darker the 'b', etc..
5 years later, 2004, I changed the plotting numbers from letters to the number of the concentric ring from 0 for the full chroma ring and 1 to 10 for the darker values. Same colorwheel.

Here is the Danial Smith RCW for watercolors.

Daniel Smith's Watercolors on Don Jusko's RCW, for mixing complement color neutral dark colors.
The Original RCW painting, 12-19-95, had 4 tints to white on 12 colors with 8 shades to dark neutral.
Painting #816, acrylic, 15x22 on 1/8 mahogany plywood covered with polyester woven cloth.

Liquitex had the first correct magenta back then and called it Acra Violet PR122.
The first printed RCW version had 1 tint ring, 36 colors and 10 shades of each color.

Real Color Wheel 36, 12, 6 and 3 color.

Concentric Ring Numbers of the RCW36.

001. Outer rings, lighter pigment or tint hue of this color.
01. 100% full chroma for opaque pigments, 50% under-tone tint for transparent pigments.
02.
03.
04.
05.
06.
07. Mass-Color of Green to Magenta transparent pigments.
08.
09.
10.
11. 10% intensity of the mass-color, matching crystals.
12. Center black.


The dots on the colorwheel locate different pigments on different concentric rings.

The Pigment Color Section description for Cadmium Yellow Lemon Opaque is, RCW36#1ring1 or #1.1
#1 is the Pure Yellow arc or section and has 5 pigments below it, each getting darker.
Rings 00, 0, 2, 3, 6 and 10 have pigments in them.

Brown is the darkest intensity of Yellow. Mix this low intensity brown with it's opposite color Ultramarine blue for a neutral dark.

I like D.S. pigments but don't agree with their choice of color wheel in this years (2006) color thoughts on their catalogs last page. Calling it a "Split Primary Palette", they attempt to make yellow, red and blue the primary colors. Calling a warm magenta PV19 and Pyrrol Orange PO73 mixture a red primary is dumb. Calling a primary cyan and blue mix primary blue is also dumb, it make a dirty cobalt blue. It would be cleaner with cyan and magenta but never a primary color. As for mixing a transparent yellow and translucent yellow to make a primary yellow, geez, how can they be so, whatever. The transparent "New Gamboge" can be lightened with water or white to make a nice cad yellow hue and the Hansa yellow is cool but it is totally misrepresented in their photograph of it. It is a cool yellow but not as cool as a nickel yellow or lead yellow. Don't let this palette into your brain, mix your colors using the correct primaries.

I wish.. I had a pre-made Purple made with PR122 and PB15, and a transparent Cool Magenta from Cobalt Violet Phosphorous.
Also a Rhodamine  Y, PR81, translucent or opaque, permanent. Maimeri calls it Garanium Lake and it's bright but fugitive. Opera is a great magenta but fugitive.

Other major water colors.

- Anthraquinone Vat, Graphtol Violet CI-4RL, PY45, a transparent deep magenta, will mix to ultramarine blue with cyan. Lefranc & Bourgeois, Egypt Violet.
-Thalo Purple, Dioxazine Purple, PV32 B/s and PV15 Ultramarine violet. Grumbacher. *Dioxazine Purple is a warm purple by itself.

THERE IS NO TRANSPARENT YELLOW PRIMARY COLOR FOR ACRYLICS. 2004
Except the acrylic color I make with PY153.
New in 2005 and 2006, D.S., Golden, and many other paint manufactures now make transparent yellow hues.
