Gamblin’s
approach is different. 1980 colours contain pure pigments, the finest refined
linseed oil, and marble dust (calcium carbonate). Since oil painting began,
these three ingredients have made more affordable colours. Painters
experience true colours without homogenized texture or muddy colour mixtures.
Gamblin's approach to using traditional raw materials and processes ensures
that artists experience the luscious working properties they expect from their
oil colours. Payne’s
Grey is the coolest Gamblin black. It has moderate tinting strength and is an
excellent match for popular watercolours. Ultramarine
is the standard warm blue, a brilliant blue pigment with the most purple and
least green undertone. It has moderate to high tinting strength and beautiful
transparency. Synthetic Ultramarine is not as vivid a blue as natural
Ultramarine. Ultramarine dries slowly in oil and produces clean, though
granular, washes in watercolour. French
Ultramarine mixes well with Alizarin colours in oil and watercolour form to
create a range of purples and violets. It can dull when mixed with white in
acrylic form but mixes well with other colours. The shade varies based on the
manufacturer. Considered a great colour for glazes, it is not suitable for
frescoing. Ultramarine
has excellent permanence, although synthetic Ultramarine is less permanent than
natural Ultramarine. Because of its sulfuric content, it may discolour if
exposed to acid. Ultramarine
has no significant hazards. The name
for this pigment comes from the Middle Latin ultra, meaning beyond, and mare,
meaning sea, because it was imported from Asia to Europe by sea. It is a
prominent component of lapis lazuli and was used on Asian temples starting in
the 6th century. It was one of the most expensive pigments in 16th century
Europe, worth twice its weight in gold, and so was used sparingly and when
commissions were larger. Ultramarine is currently imitated by a process
invented in France in 1826 by Jean Baptiste Guimet, making blue affordable to
artists and extending the range of colours on their palettes. Ivory Black
is a cool, semi-transparent blue-black with a slight brownish undertone and
average tinting strength. It mixes well with any colour and creates a range of
dull greens when mixed with yellow. It has good properties for use in oil, can
be slow to dry in oil form, and should never be used in underpainting or
frescoing. Ivory Black is denser than Lamp Black. Ivory Black
is very lightfast and has good permanence, though it is considered the least
permanent of the primary black pigments. Ivory Black
has no significant hazards. Ivory Black
is a carbon-based black first named Elephantium and was described in the 4th
century BCE as being produced by heating ivory scraps in clay pots to
reduce the ivory or bone to charcoal. The deviation in names is because the
more expensive varieties of this pigment were made by burning ivory, and the
less expensive ones by burning animal bones. In the 19th
century, the name Ivory Black was finally permitted to be applied to Carbon
Black pigments made from bone. Genuine Ivory Black is rare in modern times due
to the protection of ivory, and the synthetic variety produced today was
discovered in 1929. Bone Black is created as an industrial pigment. Yellow
Ochre provides artists with earth tones from cream to brown. It has good hiding
power, produces quick-drying paint, and can safely mix with other pigments. Its
transparency varies widely from opaque shades to more transparent ones, which
are valued for their use as glazes. If gypsum
is present, Yellow Ochre is not suitable for frescoing. (See Brown Ochre,
PY43.) PY42 is made from synthetic iron oxides. PY43 is made from natural iron
oxide. Yellow
Ochre has excellent permanence because ochres are some of the most permanent
pigments. Yellow
Ochre is non-toxic unless it contains manganese. Ochre comes
from the Greek word ochros, meaning pale yellow. It was one of the first
pigments humans used, and evidence of its use has been found at
300,000-year-old sites in France and former Czechoslovakia.Gamblin 1980 Oils - PB29 Ultramarine [Blue]; PBk9 Ivory Black;
