Do you mind if I ask which brand of paint you use? Because different brands have different hues on their Raw Sienna, for example, so you get widely differing results. :)

Hi Hannah,,,, you are so right,Cerulean blue is different in every brand of paint! I've been using American Journey (Cheap joes art stuff) for over 20 years,I like their 37 ml tubes and are well priced,,, Hope this helps! Friend Don

Is the opera or fusia lightfast?

[@DonAndrewsAWS]

Hi Shell,,,,,I often hear this comment about Fuchsia (opera) being fugitive, however I've been using it for over 40 years and I haven't seen any fading to date. I'm sure if a painting were exposed to ultraviolet (sun) light for a period of time the Fuchsia would fade but so would many, if not all others. Paintings are generally hung under florescent lighting which isn't a fraction of the strength of ultraviolet light. I'm no scientist and I haven't done any testing but until I see evidence I'm using Fuchsia,,,,I just love it! Friend Don
