Raw Umber – It’s Ugly and We Love It In 2016, Pantone 448 C was declared as the world’s ugliest color. So ugly, in fact, an Australian research and marketing project covered cigarette packs in the color and successfully discouraged people from smoking. While most people may be disgusted with this green/brown color, often called “Opaque Couché,” we in the scenic art biz call it Raw Umber – and we are madly in love with it! Pantone 448C – The World’s Ugliest Color Rosco’s Off Broadway Raw Umber is one of the few colors most scenic, and prop artists will use straight out the can – no mixing necessary! Once it’s thinned out with water, this paint makes almost anything look old, dirty, and gross with just a pass or two of thin washes and spatter. Because this hue looks like a readily available earth tone, I’m often asked, “isn’t this one of those colors I can pick up at the local paint store?” I have to say that I am unimpressed with the results. Above is a comparison that illustrates the difference between the house paint match and the original Off Broadway Raw Umber. It kind of works, but it ain’t nearly as sexy and I don’t find the house paint as reliable as the Off Broadway. I painted these large vases for the Denver Center in 2007. Note how the drips & washes of Raw Umber add age to the vases and bring out their dimensionality. I also put the Raw Umber to work painting the old, grungy sidewalk set below for Penumbra Theatre Scenic Elements. The next time your designer asks you to create a dirty sidewalk, moldy plaster walls or to dirty up a new prop so it looks old and gross – go with what’s already ugly and crack open a can of Off Broadway #5357 Raw Umber. .

Gamblin Provides Is the Desire to Help Painters Choose the Materials That Best Support Their Own Artistic Intentions
AUGUST 2008 Mineral and Modern Pigments: Painters' Access to Color At the heart of all of the technical information that Gamblin provides is the desire to help painters choose the materials that best support their own artistic intentions. After all, when a painting is complete, all of the intention, thought, and feeling that went into creating the work exist solely in the materials. This issue of Studio Notes looks at Gamblin's organization of their color palette and the division of mineral and modern colors. This visual division of mineral and modern colors is unique in the art material industry, and it gives painters an insight into the makeup of pigments from which these colors are derived, as well as some practical information to help painters create their own personal color palettes. So, without further ado, let's take a look at the Gamblin Artists Grade Color Chart: The Mineral side of the color chart includes those colors made from inorganic pigments from earth and metals. These include earth colors such as Burnt Sienna and Yellow Ochre, as well as those metal-based colors such as Cadmium Yellows and Reds and Cobalt Blue, Green, and Violet. The Modern side of the color chart is comprised of colors made from modern "organic" pigments, which have a molecular structure based on carbon. These include the "tongue- twisting" color names like Quinacridone, Phthalocyanine, and Dioxazine. These two groups of colors have unique mixing characteristics, so this organization helps painters choose an appropriate palette for their artistic intentions. Eras of Pigment History This organization of the Gamblin chart can be broken down a bit further by giving it some historical perspective based on the three main eras of pigment history – Classical, Impressionist, and Modern.

Sería un momento mágico que clamaba un “¡se acabó!”: sonaría música triunfalmente épica, todo se movería a cámara lenta; respiro aliviado, caminando sin mirar atrás, como en las películas, mientras una explosión lo manda todo al carajo y me quito las gafas de sol al viento. E iría plasmando mis memorias de color arco iris de estos últimos 4 años y pico en un par de páginas en las que mencionaría todo lo que os quiero y toda esa Ese momento ha llegado. No tengo ni puñetera idea de lo que hay que escribir, ni color rosa ni arco iris, ni Pantone 448 C. Mariano Rajoy habla de sabe-dios-qué en la radio, todo se mueve a mil por hora, y respiro como un asmático gordo saltando vallas, para poder imprimir y depositar a tiempo un petate de doscientas y pico hojas que tenga un mínimo de coherencia. A pesar de todo esto, este asmático gordo puede hacer un esfuerzo para acordarse de gentes y demás.

Fill it up with favorite color blends as you work ORY through the workshop (and notes on OLOR ST TE A C how to achieve them again), or pre-plan A color mixing guide. CREA your color story with colors you practice in advance and love. The best way to design beautiful A quick intro to figuring out colors. color schemes is to play! I’m so excited and glad that you’ve decided to paint with me in this workshop. I really hope the information in this booklet is helpful. Don’t be afraid to outsource for further information, Pinterest is a great tool for color schemes, and you can find just about everything else on Google. Enjoy yourself and have fun! THE THE CRAFTER’S CRAFTER’S BOX BOX Mixing paint doesn’t have to be hard! Let’s be honest, mixing colors seems so complicated. I hear that all the time. And anyone who has tried their hand at blending colors and has ended up with several different shades of brown by accident knows what I’m saying. I’m hoping this guide will help walk you though this workshop and also give you the confidence to blend many different shades of brown on purpose. I should also mention that while I feel very knowledgeable about color theory in the application I use it, I’m not actually a master. If this guide isn’t helpful or is conflicting to your college level color theory course, feel free to gently place this in the trash.
