5 Volkonskoite
Posted by Cole Montelongo on 5th Aug 2021
I've used volkonskoite from several suppliers & they are all very similar. Master Pigments' version is possibly screened just a bit finer than the others, making the mulling process that much easier. In other suppliers expect the occasional chunk or grit, but the MP version has none of that & is also a little better value. This green is indispensable to artists. Very fluffy & soft as silk. Great for building textures.
