DANIEL SMITH Extra Fine™ Joseph Z’s Neutral Grey Watercolor 15 ml. - World`s finest artists` paints

“Joseph Z’s Neutral Grey, developed by Joseph Zbukvic, which he describes as; “…perfect for those strong, New York type cityscapes. When undiluted it is basically black and can provide powerful monolithic shapes without looking chalky. It gives a look of charcoal drawing or old-fashioned photographs.” Part of our Signature Series, Joseph Z’s Neutral Grey is a rich black/gray, very dark in mass tone and because it has almost no color bias it mixes beautifully to tone down colors. Joseph Z’s Neutral Grey is semi-transparent, granulating, low staining and has excellent lightfastness.” Starting with 10 parts water to 1 part paint (by weight) in the palette, our chemist paints the top half of the swatch uniformly with a round brush to show the paint’s color and characteristics. For the bottom half, he dips a ¾” flat brush into the paint well just once, then applies the color in stripes until the brush is dry, which shows the color’s tone and behavior through a wash. We use these swatches for color matching during the manufacturing process.
