Acrylic Paint Tutorial By Brenda Rowe www.brendaroweartwork.com One of the most common questions I am asked is "What paint brand should I use?" Many times it comes down to personal preference , but there are many things to consider: quality, colour, lightfastness/permanence, viscosity, and price. The brands I list in this document and reputable and mostly available locally i n Newfoundland. You will have to experiment to see what brand you will favour. I have used all of those listed, but my favourites are Golden Acrylics and Winsor & Newton Artists' Acrylics. Hope fully this guide will help clear up some of your questions.... A NATOMY OF A P AINT T UBE L ABEL - H OW TO R EAD THE L ABEL There are many pieces of information listed on a tube of paint. Some of these are not easy to understand, so I will explain the various terms you can encounter. Not all paint tubes will have all of the information listed. Colour Name Many manufacturers have slightly different names for each of their paint colours, while other colour names are standard (i.e. B urnt Umber). However, those paints with the same name are not made equal! Although the pigment chemical names will be the same there will be subtle differences in shade. Which is why a Pain t Conversion Chart can be useful. I have included a Conversion Chart at the end of this workbook. Pigments These are coloured, dry powdery substances that come from a variety of natural and synthetic sources, which when combined with a binder become the colouring agents for paint. You can determine if the paint is a Pure colour (only one pigment listed) or a Mixed colour (more than one pigment listed). The more pi gments listed means mixing that paint with any other paint colours you are using will increase the risk of mudding the colour that you are mixing. Chemical Index Name / Number Every pigment has a Name and Number so that you can compare colours more accurately, and also to help you determine any health concerns related to certain pigments (i.e. Cadmiums). It consists of a Pigment Code and a Unique Number. Pigment Codes The Pigment Codes used are: PB = Pigment Blue PBk = Pigment Black PBr = Pigment Brown PG = Pigment Green PM = Pigment Metal PO = Pigment Orange PR = Pigment Red PV = Pigment Violet PW = Pigment White PY = Pigment Yellow Vehicle / Binder / Medium The three terms above are used interchangeably to define what is used to bind the pigments together in a liquid suspension, kno wn as paint. Most binders are milky in consistency, which causes a colour shift when dry (paint dries darker) as the binder itself dries clear, leaving more pigment visible.
