NEW ITALIAN COLOR! Here’s the story… I was lucky enough to go on vacation to Turks and Caicos last year. When I was there, I was blown away by the island colors, and immediately wanted to make a tropical palette. One color I could not find was the magenta, impossible, bougainvillea color that was everywhere. Months later, when visiting Italy and sourcing pigments I found it. This color is unreal and doesn’t quit. Smooth, bright, a true pleasure to paint with.
