Are there shops besides pigment Tokyo that are fun to explore in Tokyo? I have some suihi pigments and have a general idea of what I want from pigment Tokyo but hoping to find some less popular and similarly cool stores.
Is there something you got in Japan and has become indispensable part of your art journey? Please share that too,
One of these is the original brown madder (root) , one is pr206, one is my mix to make a version of brown madder. Would you compare the three and tell me which two of the three look close to each other in color?
I only part way through. I like it and am hoping for a good end result. Any tips on making the husk look natural and dramatic? Any other tips?

It’s been great for portraits but it also paints so well for landscapes. Putting all the pictures just to show the range and spectrum of skin colors it can achieve.
I’m not generally a portrait painter and I wanted to have mixes which would take the complexity out for those who find them intimidating.
I made a 12 color “portrait” palette to have the entires spectrum of skin tones mixed and ready on hand. Would you use something like this?
On Thursday we drove from Manteca to SF and I made a palette that night based on the colors on the drive. I tried a quick painting and green was missing so I made that tonight. What do you think?
Didn’t realize it was going to “die” some more once I started painting to had to wing some parts
Picked up some leave on my walk and painted one of them.
