Waaa! Can I borrow some?

I have a $110 credit waiting and want too much so I am frozen deciding. I feel very proud to have participated.

When we started talking him into it, the gang told him to do it and he said it was all fine and dandy, but finaces were not limitless, so we invested. $100 matured and in 60 days, that covered the expense of buying machinery and R&D, if we let it sit, we got to buy 10% more stuff! Those who did $1000 got $100 more, and I am just sitting like a Christmas present unable to make up my mind.

It is the ruby I await. Such an amazing color. Crisp and truly red, not too cool, not too warm. I saw them mulling pigment when I was there and I have lusted for 9 months over it.

One more plug for Ugly Dog. The most amazing soap on earth. Still am thrilled every time I clean a brush.

Hi Debra,

I just posted a painting that used up a ton of Irgazine Ruby, mostly mixed with Yellow Ochre and Naples Yellow Deep to warm it up a bit:

It's an Ozog tube that I bought last year and it's a terrific color. I'm getting my order into Rob pronto, thanks so much for letting me know about his new paints.

Deb, are you talking about the Irg Ruby or Red? I just placed an order for 8 tubes of SP paint - one was irg Ruby. Now I'm thinking I should have gotten the red...

I heard stories of people calling Doak for his Irg ruby and he refuses to sell it because "they didn't really need it."

That really makes me WANT it. Maybe that's the point?
