jacob collins palette

Sorry it has taken me a few days to get back to those people who sent me emails about color but I had to dig out the book that had Jacob Collin’s palette. I found it in the back of Juliette Aristides book “classical painting atelier” which by the way is a fine book full of excellent examples of painters. I would recommend it just for the pictures if nothing else.

According to her jacob collins palette is
flake white
naples yellow
flesh ocher
transparent earth orange
raw sienna
burnt sienna
burnt umber
raw umber
alzarin crimson permanent
ivory black

My palette right now consists of yellow ochre, french vermillion, burnt sienna, burnt umber, white, ivory black, brown pink and the transparent earth orange.
