Description
A semi-opaque green earth, sourced from Germany where most of the best green earths are found, ground by Francois Schaal in French linseed oil with absolutely no additives.
In masstone a rich, very dark greenish brown, almost mossy, the swatch is pretty accurate.
When tinted with white it brings out a wide range of greenish greys. Good one for the portrait painter.
Quite 'long' in consistency being somewhat looser than some of Francois's other paints.
