Let's swatch, compare, and talk about oil paint. Will some of these others find themselves in my paint rotation? I was surprised by some, as you may also be. So let's relax and talk paint while I swatch. I have many brands and I have favorites. I have the bad habit of buying too many. Sometimes one brand just nails the perfect color while another misses it completely. I am always on the lookout for that Holy Grail paint/paintcolor. I definately love Utrecht's pro oils and am a long-time user of Windsor and Newton pro and Grumbacher pre-tested pro.
