After researching paint brands and colors for two years, I have arrived at Doaks paints in these colors, as my favorite choices for a limited pallet.
Sinopia(mars violet)
Terra Rosa
Raw Sienna
Lead Tin Yellow(Naples yellow)
Blue Ochre
Turkey umber
Burnt Umber
Unbleached Titanium
Williamsburg Titanium -Zinc
Williamsburg Flake White
Doaks paints are hand ground in walnut oil, and have to be ordered over the phone. In the near future we will be able to order Doaks paints on line on Rob Howard's website (Studio Products). These paints are a bit oily, but stay fresh on your palette for quite a while. Williamsburg has a great website and excellent paint, but I am attached to Doaks colors.
I don't glaze(yet), but find these colors most to my liking because they produce a muted real life color, similiar to the old masters.
