Thank you for this art class! 🙏🏻 I wish I had this lecture at school 20 years ago. It makes me look different at my pigments/paint as well as art. I understand now why some artists work like Van Gogh's or Italian fresco's needed "colour" restoration (they didn't have money for the expensive pigment) and Vermeer did have the opportunity to use expensive pigments like Ultramarines. That's why the girl with the pearl earring is still that pretty. I actually live within 5 miles from that painting and I've never seen it. Now I have to go to

I think it's important also to mention that Cadmium is toxic and could cause health issues. Cadmium is linked to an increased risk for cancer and kidney and liver afflictions. Many artists nowadays avoid using true Cadmium paints. Sometimes they get substituted by nontoxic paints with "Cadmium HUE" in the name.

@@adriannamarszal Yes, I noticed that last week (I think it was the Jackson's Art site). I do like it better, because it is definitely much clearer now, yet still let's you know it's the cadmium yellow or cadmium red and not other colors. It is strange for W&N as one of the reputable brands not to release the pigment info, hmm....

This was a fun video to watch for the history and trivia behind the development of paint pigments. I would suggest a simplified explanation of the strange names that many pigments have. If I were trying to help someone understand why the names seems so mystifying, I'd simple point to the fact that many of those long names are simply chemical names. They're really just names of the chemicals that make up the specific pigments and have those specific color properties; that's all. The reason they seem so long and complicated is that every chemical has a unique name. While we know many people share the same names, and many cities, pets, etc. have the same name, it wouldn't be useful to have two different chemicals with the same name. Interestingly, most of those long names are what would be called a "common name" to a chemist, and the proper names of those chemicals would be even longer. For example (my personal favorite) "phthalo" is short for "Phthalocyanine" which is the common name for a chemical with a proper name of "(29H,31H-phthalocyaninato(2−)-N29,N30,N31,N32)copper(II)." And you thought "phthalo" was odd. ;-)

Hello loved the video and very informative! I'm still new acrylic painting. Im also on a limited income so getting all these different colors like dioxazine purple, quinacridone,phthalo cadmium etc colors I cant afford them all right now. Is there any chart that would help me get as close to one of those colors by mixing what I have mostly basic colors. I plan on buying more when they go on sale again. Michaels had a great sale so I was able to buy about eight of them. Thank You!!

Actually, Egyptian blue is NOT lapis lazuli, it was one of the first known synthetically produced pigments. The Egyptian name for it is literally translated to "artificial lapis lazuli". It is and was created with a combination of silica, lime, copper, and an alkali. Loving research is one thing, being proficient, another.
