Rublev Colours Artist Oil Colours 50ml Purple Ocher

Rublev Colours Purple Ocher is manufactured from iron oxide earth deposits containing augite porphyry in the Lori province of Armenia.

Purple Ocher harmonizes perfectly with other earth colors and is impossible to reproduce by mixing colors. Purple Ocher has a deep red masstone and subdued purple tints that are workable paste color ground in linseed oil with a moderate to low oil content and long, slightly thixotropic body. Being an iron oxide, it is lightfast and is compatible with almost all other pigments on the palette.

Rublev Colours Purple Ocher mixed with black or blue furnish grays and chocolates and is most invaluable in neutralizing greens. Rublev believes it will make an excellent addition to any palette and become a primary color in creating cool tints in flesh tones and landscapes.

Rublev Colours Artists' Oils let you experience what the old masters well understood--the unique characteristics of pigments. The pigments used by old masters in their paintings were ground from natural minerals and earths, fermented in dyer vats and concocted in alchemist laboratories. Rublev Colours Artists' Oils give you the same pigments used by the old masters prepared with linseed oil as ready-made paints.

Rublev Colours uses natural pigments or historical reproductions of pigments used by the old masters. Rublev Colours Artists' Oils are formulated to maintain the unique characteristics of each pigment in oil. The character found in each tube of these oil colors is unique due to the pigment inside, giving the artist nearly limitless choices of texture, opacity, consistency, tone and hue.

Rublev Colours Artists' Oils do not contain additives, such as fillers, driers and stabilizers--simply pigment and oil. Refined linseed oil is used in the paint sometimes with a small amount of heat-bodied linseed oil. Stabilizers, such as stearates and waxes, are not added that diminish the individual effects of pigments in oil. Therefore, you will find different consistencies from color to color due to the individual pigment characteristics, and an occasional bit of free oil. Some colors brush out long, others short and buttery and still others are thixotropic.
