5. Why
do you list Cadmium Yellow on one of your episodes, but not on
your supply list?
Well, in one case, it was simply a mistake. It should have been listed as Transparent Yellow--which Cadmium is not. But, I am not hung up on specific colors, always. Mixed with blue, you will, of course, still get a green with either. I tend to use Transparent Yellow to mix with my blues to acquire my greens. I generally want to maintain the transparent quality of my greens. Though it likely varies with each manufacturer, but I generally regard Cadmium as an opaque color (not transparent). This is usually not the look that I am trying to achieve, but you may like the way that it lays over other colors. On PBS, I try to stay brand neutral. They like it that way. So, depending on the maker, Transparent Yellow has different names. But, basically, I am using a "primary" yellow that is "transparent". The specific yellow that I am currently using is listed on my supply page. |
