For those of you who would like to experiment with his palette, the next section goes over the materials John Singer Sargent used in his work. John Singer Sargent used fine plain woven canvases toned with mid-tone cool gray-particularly for portraits. He used paints directly from tubes to mix the exact colors he wanted. His palette varied, but he regularly used cadmium yellow, vermilion, Mars red, Mars yellow, Mars brown, rose madder, sienna, ivory black, ultramarine blue, cobalt blue, viridian green, and emerald green. He used a copious amount of paint medium: linseed oil for dark colors and poppyseed oil for lighter colors. Sargent mixed flesh tones using a palette of ivory black, rose madder, and viridian green with lead white. Lead white was common at this time, but for safety reasons, I would not recommend it nowadays. Evidence indicate that John Singer Sargent used small (¼ inch or ½ inch) brushes. Studies further confirm that he saved the boldest strokes for last. I conclude that he started with big brushes, then moved to smaller brushes in the middle stages of the painting, and then finished them off with big brushes again. He varnished his paintings, which has led to the varnished paintings yellowing over time. www.explore-drawing-and-painting.com/John-Singer-Sargent.html Cheers fellow artists!

To anyone wondering what palette of colors Sargent actually used, lists do exist online, but its clear Sargent went through a variety of pigments throughout his career, adopting colors and casting away others. His main palette always included Lead white Pale chrome(cad yellow pale) Gold Ochre Vermillion (Cad Scarlet/red light) Venetian Red Cadmium Orange Burnt Sienna Raw Umber Alizarin Crimson Viridian Cobalt blue Fr. Ultramarine Ivory black Cobalt violet Various colors would come in as needed for studio works, but this was the colors found in Sargents plein air box, and what appears stained into his palettes. IMO I love the collectable sargent palette, but for $150 to get a reproduction of a palette another artist used, is like spending hundreds or thousands on getting the same type of guitar Jerry Garcia used. It might look good on your wall, but it will not make you a better artist. I feel like anyone with a band saw an a $10 piece of birch can make their own

I'm glad he confused the lot of you. Students and those new to painting need to Stop focusing on palettes like they are a secret formula to great painting. A master like sargent could paint the same painting using an almost infinite number of different colors. Its not about the colors you use (unless you are squeezing them out of the tube purely without mixing them at all) Its in the way you mix them which makes you a master of color

Don't worry about the "exact" colors he used. People focus far too much on thinking that it's the pigments which provide insight into the final product of a master. In reality you can use different pigments to make the same exact mixtures and the eye would never be able to tell the difference. Sargent never worked in pure out of the tube color in his figurative and portrait work which means the variety of grays he mixed on his palette can be mixed from any number of different base pigments.

Occasionally adding extra hues, but most of his colours were made from the limited palette.

+Frank Mejia Im going to answer with my speculative, amateur answer. Sargent lived at an exciting time for painting: The industrial revolution had radically expanded the amount of colors available to artists, and American dye/paint makers played an important role in the discovery and manufacture of modern pigments. All the cadmiums are colors found in skin in natural light- cad red, cad yellow, cad orange, but these are pretty modern pigments and I don't know if he would have used them. Almost all the old reds were cinnabar related pigments. He likely used prussian blue (or possibly ultramarine?) to cool his colors off. Im guessing he used a tube of black (instead of mixing black) which used to be made from coal. Also, back in the day, academies and ateliers on either side of the atlantic would have taught to paint your underpainting in burnt umber, and to mix your greys with burnt umber, so that could be in there (although I don't see much burnt umber in his paintings). Sargent would have access to quinacridone violets and reds, and the old formulations of alizarin and English red that had arsenic in it. Those are my educated guesses! You really dont need much more than five tubes of paint- cad red (light), cad yellow (medium), prussian blue, titanium white and burnt umber- to paint a great portrait.

This list is from Sargent's notes, which somehow found their way to George Pratt, who shared the information. I had no idea Red Ochre even existed. No ready made greens or violets on the palette, though. Surprised he used Naples Yellow, it can look pretty unatural sometimes.
