Williamsburg Earth Pigments
	#1561P Brown Ochre PBr7 Very earthy, extra-deep, yellow ochre - so deep we call it brown.
	#1484P Brown Pink PR101 Similar to Sail de Grain in history and chemistry but with a beautiful, transparent, cordovan color. Its beauty is best seen when used transparently. Absolutely permanent.
	#1631P Brown Umber PBr7 The warmest raw umber we have ever seen - Not as red or as finely ground as the Burnt Umber.
	#1521P Burnt Sienna PBr7 Rich, warm, mahogany undertone. Luminous and cherry-reddish in washes and glazing. Relatively strong.
	#1661P Burnt Umber PBr7 Very warm and velvety.
	#1494P Dutch Brown (Transparent) PBr6 Very close to Cassell Earth - but absolutely permanent. In mixing if you find umbers to be too "smoky or atmospheric", you will find this to be very crisp and rich.
	#1792P German Earth One of the most versatile blacks we've encountered. When used straight, it is very much like a traditional Cassell Earth or Van Dyke Brown, but when white is added ti cools down and becomes bluish - almost moonstone-like. Dries with a soft matte surface.
	#1474P Italian Pink PR101 Similar to Dutch Pink, but in the Italian Tradition. Like the highlights in reddish hair painted by Titian. A semi-transparent orange earth. Absolutely permanent.
	#1382P Mars Orange PR101 Brilliant and mellow like freshly shined copper. The French call this Flesh Ochre.
	#1402P Mars Red Light PR101 Looks like old brick in direct sunlight. Sometimes it seems warm and rich - other times a dusty pink. Also known as English Red or Light Red.
	#1422P Mars Red PR101 A beautiful, medium red - not too blue or too yellow. Like rich, warm, cordovan leather. Also called Venetian Red.
	#1442P Mars Violet PR101 Rich, chocolate-like, deep and purplish. Sometimes called Caput Mortuum or Indian red.
	#1342P Mars Yellow Light PY42 Like highlights on polished brass - very luminous and bright. Often called Yellow Ochre Pale.
	#1362P Mars Yellow Deep PY42 Warmer and very slightly redder than the light. Sometimes called Yellow Ochre or Yellow Ochre Deep.
	#1501P Raw Sienna PBr7 A beautiful, transparent, golden undertone, very luminous in washes and glazing. Relatively strong.
	#1621P Raw Umber PBr7 A coolish and very slightly greenish umber. Mixes with white to an almost neutral grey.
	#1671P Red Umber PR102 A burnt umber that is so warm it takes on a true reddish quality. Almost a mid-step between Burnt Umber and Burnt Sienna.
	#1581P Red Ochre PBr7 Extremely dense, very strong covering power. Earthier than the Mars colors.
	#1601P Spanish Earth (Purple Ochre) PBr7 A dense earthy ochre - more violet than the red ochre - with an interesting liverish quality.
	#1464P Stil de Grain PY43 The Dutch made this with roots. A warm, transparent gold. Perfect in glazing.
	#1681P Van Dyke Brown PBr9 Genuine Van Dyke Brown. Mixed with white it gives a neutral grey. Beautiful sepia-like washes. Not considered a permanent.
	#1401P Yellow Ochre Domestic PY43 A naturally occurring yellow ochre from Georgia. Stronger tinting than the Italian Yellow Ochre, in hue somewhere in between the Italian and the Lemon Ochre.
