Description
This is a description of R&F Pigment Sticks, a handmade, natural oil paint made with only basic materials. The pigment is ground up and mixed with linseed oil, which makes the paint soft and easy to apply. The paint dries quickly and has a transparent appearance.
R&F Pigment Sticks are handmade in small batches, carefully
milled and molded. Only the basic traditional materials are used:
natural wax, linseed oil, and pigment, and only used with absolute
purity. Pigment Sticks are the only brand of oil sticks that employ
only natural waxes (beeswax & plant wax). This allows for a
minimum amount of wax. This results in softer consistency and
greater paint film strength.R&F Pigment Sticks let you get rid
of the distancing factor of a brush and hold the paint right in
your hand. The surface, the paint, your hand and your ideas all
come together. The different effects you can get with these
luscious sticks will amaze you.The name Turkey Red comes from a
laboriously produced but widely used plant dye imported from Turkey
in the 18th & 19th centuries. The top tone of Turkey Red is an
earthy bluish red that breaks into a warm earthy scarlet undertone.
Mix of Quinacridone Red, Indian Yellow, and Raw Sienna.Opacity:
