Will pure pigment do the jobs, or is there something special about 'tempera'
pigment? Studio Supply in Chapel Hill sells "Schmincke" pigments. Jars
about the size of a can of soda, filled with pure pigment, oh so pricey, but
the burnt sienna truly is burnt sienna and the ultramarine really is
ultramarines and a jar that size could probably be divided amongst all the
scribes in Atlantia, and we'd still have to pass on the leftovers in our
wills.
I suppose there may be other brands, but these I dream of.
Bonne
