Pure Color Glazes
Pure Oil Color Glazes are reminiscent
of stained glass with natural sunlight streaming through.
Safflower Oil is a natural conductor
of light in a oil painting. The use of clear transparent colored pigment
allows the artist the luxury of easy application with dramatic results.
Transparent colors are the most clean
of all pigments. They are similar to tiny bits of ground glass with
nothing to stop the flow of sunlight through them.
Renaissance masters actually did add
ground glass in their colored pigments to enhance the sparkling quality of their
art works. This color radiance became the hallmark of Renaissance and
Baroque Master Painter.
Today's
artists enjoy the distinctive advantage of richly saturated oil colors that are
clear and clean, bright and extremely powerful.
When applied over a classic grisaille foundation
these pure color glazes yield a magnificent result in the finished art work.
Not only are the colors rich and beautiful but they
are also natural conductors of radiant sunlight. This allows natural
sunlight to participate in the finished art work.
There is no substitute for this process.
Acrylic colors are not as dazzling because they lack the ingredient of pure oil,
the conductor of sunlight.
Linda Coulter specializes in this type of pure
color glazes to transform her classic grisaille designs to full color
masterpieces.

Linda Coulter teaches color theory in a way that
makes it EASY to learn and FUN to play with pure color glazes.

This empowers the beginner artist to achieve
dramatic results very quickly.
Linda has developed a Master Color Chart
filled with pure color glazes that are easily mixed from only 4 bright pigments
and 2 earth pigments. This incredibly streamlined system allows the artist
to stock only 8 tubes of paint. Red, yellow, blue, green, sienna, brown,
black and white.
From this simple, yet powerful, small handful of
pigments comes an infinite number of pure color glazes and opaque color accents.
Linda's paint is manufactured in Milan, Italy,
using only pure pigment and natural oil to create the ultimate Pure Color
Glazes.

All of Linda's projects are created with these pure
color glazes applied over her classic grisaille designs.
This system divides and conquers the painting
process, thus allowing the artist to concentrate on only one thing at a time
while creating radiant works of art.
