Four Colors, Endless Possibilities

13 July 2025

🎨 Exploring the limited palette inspired by the Greek four color palette-- the Tetrachromatikón!

With just Venetian Red, Transparent Yellow Oxide (or Yellow Ochre), Ivory Black, and White, it is incredible how many colors can be created with this triad!

We just released a video over on our YouTube channel talking about it.

Happy Painting!
