Blockx




I am A Blockx fan. The paint is so buttery that it never needs a medium, unless you want to slow down the drying or speed it up. It also doesn't suede on skintones.

I am a fan of Galkyd, insread of Liquin for drying and glazing techniques. The Blockx also makes rich, glowing tranparencies.

A few years ago they discontinued their gorgeous Alizarin, probably because of questions of permanence. I could not see any problems with it as the pigment used was on Mayer's approved list, so I bought a box of ten. It is now no longer available.

Sincerely,
