These colors are not «crutches» or a «paint-by-number» shortcut. These ten colors are, in fact, simple, traditional flesh color combinations (see descriptions below), used by all portrait artists since the introduction of oil painting. For example. Light 1 is produced by the manufacturer by combining the ingredients of white, yellow ochre and cadmium red light. The resulting hue has been used by painters for the five hundred years of oil painting.
Neutral 3.
- The light halftone. Combines white, black and yellow ochre.
Neutral 5.
- Precisely midway between black and white. A combination of white, black and yellow ochre.
Neutral 7.
- Positioned on a value scale of nine tones, this is a dark halftone, midway between value 5 and black. A warm, dark gray combining white, ivory black, and raw sienna or yellow ochre.
