Description
Scottish granite, the stuff ancient mountains are made of, one of the strongest rocks; it can survive millions of years of attrition by wind, rain and snow.
Feels good to paint with a material of such substance, it is from the Wallace Seymour range of Native Earths making it totally unique.
In masstone a mid value, reddish, brown, earth with the slightest sparkle I assume from the mica present in granite. Slightly gritty in texture.
In tints with white it produces very good mid-range flesh hues not too warm and not too cool. In my opinion it is preferable to a Venetian type red or an English red, which always feel too pink to me.
