    Description

    Orpiment is a golden lemon yellow derived from a naturally occurring poisonous mineral. Very popular during medieval and renaissance painting, but has since fallen out of popularity due to its toxic arsenic content. Along with the original colors toxicity was its reactive nature with other colors, particularly with colors containing copper causing the mixture to go brown/ black over time.
    My Orpiment imitation is a transparent, pasty, matte leaning lemon yellow that is completely lightfast and nontoxic. My version is a bit more saturated than the original.
    "All of my colors are handmade with only the highest quality pigments and cold pressed linseed oil. My professional oil colors are all formulated to be lightfast, non-toxic, affordable imitations of The World's Rarest Colors. I have used and studied all of the colors that I recreate extensively to achieve this goal. Each color looks and behaves in a similar manner to its historical counterpart, but without the downfalls of the originals.
    Made for artists by an artist! "
