A traditional painter’s color, Burnt Umber is made by heating Raw Umber, which transforms it from a dark greenish brown to a dark brown with a hint of red tones. When mixed with a bit of white, it becomes a warm, tortoise shell brown. This rich earth pigment is lightfast, low-staining and popular with artists.
GOUACHE swatches are painted in three sections across black and white surfaces. The top is mass tone straight from the tube; middle is 1:1 paint and water; bottom is 1:1:1 paint, water and Titanium White.
