Passionate and mysterious, great to evoke distant elements of any kind even the unknown…I love the hue.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlvaro’s Fresco and Caliente Greys, as he describes them, are about; “…magnetism, fury, energy…power. You know greys… create a feeling of danger, emotion, passion… mystery…evoke things that are unknown…darkness. I use these greys to create a painting that has a magnetism…energy, mystery, passion…something to discover, entering the unknown, darkness. Both of these colors have just this type of feel to me.” -Alvaro Castagnet\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePart of our Signature Series, Alvaro’s Fresco Grey, a cool midnight in mass tone and a cooling mist in washes, it mixes well with other colors, toning them down and adding a touch of coolness. Alvaro’s Fresco Grey is semi-transparent, granulating, low staining and has excellent lightfastness.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStarting 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePigments: PB 29, PV 15, PW 6 | Series: 2\u003cbr\u003eLightfastness: I – Excellent\u003cbr\u003eTransparency: Semi-Transparent\u003cbr\u003eStaining: 2 – Low Staining\u003cbr\u003eGranulation: Granulating\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"DANIEL SMITH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67182427832493,"sku":"743162034222","price":23.79,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0840\/2662\/2125\/files\/6178005f-Daniel-Smith-Tube-S2-Alvaros-Fresco-Grey.jpg?v=1791678635","url":"https:\/\/www.paletteartsupplies.com\/products\/daniel-smith-extra-fine-watrecolors-15ml-tube-alvaro-s-fresco-grey-series-2","provider":"PALETTE ART SUPPLIES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
