A Real Treat to Paint Like the Old Masters
I particularly like the warm colors in the Rublev line of paints: Vermilion, Orange Molybdate, Minium, the Lead-Tin Yellows, the Chrome Yellows, and the Naples Yellows, (and, of course Lead White #2). Really nice to have the real thing rather than substitute colors that are mixtures of other pigments (usually in response to health concerns). The color, handling properties and pigment load of the Rublev paints are great, and if you handle them properly, there's no reason to worry about toxicity. Thank goodness oil painting is making a comeback!
