I've recently done several posts on the Color Palettes of individual artists, listing the colors they used as their standard painting pigments. It's been a good way for me to exorcize my obsessive demons who always want to know how other artists did what they did.
If you're interested in the same thing, and want to continue on that same pigment track, then you should definitely read James Gurney's recent posts on James Perry Wilson, an artist best known for the diorama paintings he created for our nation's best natural history museums. James has done several interviews with people who were close to Wilson, and has provided the artist's surprisingly limited palette.
- Ultramarine Blue
- Cobalt Blue
- Windsor Blue
- Cadmium Yellow Pale
