HEMATITE VIOLET GENUINE

Hematite Violet Genuine is one of Daniel Smith's PrimaTek series pigments ground from Hematite stones. I love the brown boarding on violet washes and deep granulation this pigment brings to the table.  I could see it in rocky landscapes or as a way to render wood. Used in a thick wash, Hematite, which comes from a silvery-black mineral consisting of iron oxide, has heavy particles that will settle into a fascinating granulating pattern. When used as a watery wash, it creates a reddish umbery violet.  Hematite Violet mixes well with other pigments and low staining and semi transparent.  It was fun to paint one of our favorite visitors with Hematite Violet Genuine.

    SOUL

    “I am a contemplative artist who has trouble accessing verbal skills. Finding the right words to talk about the amazing things I observe around me can be frustrating. It is much more natural for me to pick up a paintbrush, some embroidery floss or my camera when I wish to share some new discovery. The artwork I create is meant to be enjoyed on whatever level the viewer experiences it and not layered with complex meaning. Feathers, fur, flowers and the incredible variation I find in wildlife not only inspire me, but compel me to share every nuance with you.
