A set - Seth Tummins Colors for an Open Palette

For Seth Tummins, the experience of a place is more valuable than its appearance, so using memory and an open mind are important aspects of his process that link the past with the present. Nature is the starting point, not the goal. In his current studio work, he chooses to respond to marks on the surface rather than rigidly adhering to sketches or photographs.

This unique selection Seth Tummins Colors for an Open Palette offers choices to expand your existing palette.

Seth Tummins Colors for an Open Palette - Presented in a slim, cardboard box with foam lining for safe and easy transport. Eight 40ml size tubes:

Indigo - Useful for adding shadow to mixtures and toning down brightness, Indigo suggests the color of night with its cool, deep value. A great sky color tinting to quiet blue grays with white or creating unique pale blues when mixed with warm pink complements.

Lily Rose - Opaque brilliant pink with surprising color strength and a gentle luminosity. Cool and colorful, Lily Rose easily enhances blues and yellows in a landscape or sunset, and also blends beautifully with earthy yellows to build flesh tones with additional white.

Ruby Violet Light - Ideal for landscape and floral subject matter, our Ruby Violet Light adds colorful opacity and a touch of shadow to warm transparent reds and yellows.

Alpine Green Extra Pale - Very bright light turquoise that's more blue than green, Alpine Green Extra Pale is useful as is, or to complement warm pinks. Beautifully modifies intense, deep cool colors, or creates unique green mixtures with any yellow or orange.

Video Blue Extra Pale - Delicate sky blue, cool and much lighter than the Video Blue, but still vibrant. Complements warm pinks into silvery grays.

Ship Rock - Bringing a hazy distant warmth to mixtures, this light warm gray makes warm or cool colors more atmospheric without any dulling.

Silver Point - Cool mixing, medium value neutral gray that brings a subtle blue to mixtures. Brings out the undertone of a cool transparent dark, transforming Phthalo's and other modern pigments into rich jewels of color.

Cadmium Yellow Orange - Intense, warm genuine Cadmium Orange that's more yellow and lighter in value. Bright opaque complement to any blue that can also work as an extra deep yellow in mixtures to add a unique richness of value and warmth.
