Archival Oils by Chroma

When painting using the mixed media technique of glazing oils over an acrylic basecoat, Kaaren has chosen the Archival Oils by Chroma, manufacturers of the world-famous JoSonja paints, as her preferred brand of oils. Not only are they the world's first non-cracking ARTIST QUALITY oil paints, but they are extremely price-competitive in today's marketplace.

"Why glaze?" you might ask. The use of oil glazes adds a luminosity to your work that is virtually unattainable with acrylic paint alone. Glazing is the application of a thin or transparent layer of pigment over an opaque or other transparent layer of paint. One color is sparingly applied over the other, ensuring that each of the previous layers has either dried naturally or has been misted with Krylon 1311 Matte Finish Spray Coating in order to set the paint. Each subsequent layer of glazing adds more depth and dimension to your painting, thereby creating the same glow that is unique to projects rendered entirely in oil. The glazed color reflects the light while the
opaque color absorbs it.

For the first time, Kaaren is offering a set of 12 of her preferred colors of
the Archival Oils at a special introductory price. Each set includes one, 40
ml tube of the following colors:

Burnt Sienna, Burnt Umber, Cadmium Orange, Cadmium Red Medium, Cadmium Yellow Medium, Mars Black, Olive Green, Payne's Grey, Permanent Alizarine, Raw Sienna, Titanium White and Ultramarine Blue
