We’re pleased to announce two new additions from Jane Blundell to our Signature Series of watercolors!

Jane’s Black (Blue/Orange)
The opposite colors Phthalo Blue (Red Shade) and Transparent Pyrrol Orange create a transparent, non-granulating black when mixed that’s perfect for subjects like stones or colorful birds, where blue and orange are the dominant colors. It can be modulated by adding more Phthalo Blue to create deep dark blues, or more Pyrrol Orange to create rich, orangey browns.

Jane’s Black (Red/Green)
This perfectly neutralizing pair of pigments – Phthalo Green (Blue Shade) and Pyrrol Crimson, which are transparent, staining and non-granulating, creates a convenience black without any black pigments. It’s perfect wherever a rich black is needed and is particularly well-suited for subjects with a red and/or green color bias.

“I use Jane’s Black (Red/Green) for paintings that are largely red and green, like roses and other florals, but it’s also great as a general rich black – it’s easy to mix into my palette, which keeps colour harmony in paintings – from rich deep greens to wonderful maroon shadows. Jane’s Black (Blue/Orange) is useful when painting subjects that are based around earth tones. The range of beautiful browns and deep blues that this pair can create is inspiring!”
