Thank you for sharing your color swatchings. I learn so much about “color” from each.

OMG..I LOVE my Caran Ache palette!! I do both eastern and western paintings..and love finding ways to mix the 2 mediums. I only have 1 ink dish left, for grinding sticks..I kind of gave my inexpensive ones away to people who wanted to try grinding their own ink. The one I have though belonged to my first tutor..was her grandmothers..she is currently 94, so…I practically keep my antique, hand carved ink dish in a safe. 😂. Instead of buying another one..AND, I had heard I could use this textured palette for my inktense, as well as my, also antique, colored ink sticks-I bought 2 and I LOVE them! I use them both for grinding and mixing like you did. I bought one for my best friend, a retired art professor early last month. She bought another one and plans on getting 1 or 2 more. 😁

Whoops, just added the yellow and brown to my shopping cart :) Thanks for showcasing these beauties! I’m looking forward to hearing your opinions after you’ve done a painting or two with them. If you’re looking for an Indanthrone that has less of a drying shift, try Anthraquinone Blue from M Graham. Same pigment, PB60, plus it has a bit of texture. (I hope I spelled those colours correctly…)

I read the iron oxide has to be cleaned before it can be used as a pigment. I'm not sure how enviro-friendly it really is.

Hi , what do you mean by earth friendly? Explain it to me like I’m 5 . ( Michael Scott- The Office) 🤣
@watercolorpour

Maybe a better way to explain would be paints I consider non earth friendly (toxic) such as the traditional Cobalts, Nickel, Cadmiums, Manganese, Titanium, Chromium. Can you imagine how SAD I was to consider taking Cobalt Teal off my palette? So due to this deep dive into trying to find a non toxic palette, I also had to find substitutes to beloved colors.. I will be sharing my final choices soon. 🤍

Toxic as in not septic safe? 😱

Hi Sue, good morning friend! Here is more information on the Prop 65 and ACMI labeling, it is a quick way to know if your paints have any toxic ingredients. Just look for the AP label on the back of each tube. Most would say as long as we don’t eat, drink or inhale our paints there is no worry. As far as septic systems go, I’m not knowledgeable on how these paints break down in them, I do know Acrylics can be a problem, and artists that use known toxic paints (traditional cadmium for instance) will not pour those down the drain. Some water their plants with the water instead. Or filter it through a sock/pantyhose to filter and paint particles out. If you have concerns you can always make the switch to using paints with the AP label on the back. Hope this answer helps friend 😀 acmiart.org/index.php/art-material-safety/safety-tips-what-you-need-to-know
