I stick with Old Holland and Michael Harding exclusively for my commission work due to the fact they are both ground in cold pressed linseed oil. QUOTE]

I am concerned about the vehicle as well. The paint manufacturers tout pure alkali refined linseed oil as a virtue, when it is the cheapest and most easily available binder available.

Since I am not know for my understated color, I think I will stick with the SP's Pryrolo Ruby for now.

Recently, halfway through a painting, my lissome ash-haired model showed up with white blond hair streaked with hot pink. the Pyrolo Ruby was up to the task. The painting, needless to say took a turn towards anime. Whatever!
