Hiya. Lovely to see you back again. I really love the genuine Naples yellows and recommend anyone giving them a go. Of course people will say they are unnecessary and you can mix something similar from whatever colours you usually use. I think this misses the point, I personally find that you can have a unique creative experience when trying pigments outside of your standard palette. Also it's fun. I would like to make a comment on the Naples yellow alternative, py24 if I remember. I think it's a shame that Michael called this Naples yellow as I think it may make people pass over it and thinking its just a hue or something so not worth trying. In fact the Naples yellow none genuine is a lovely single pigment paint and in my opinion should have a name of its own rather than being labelled as a fake Naples yellow. Maybe something like antinomy brown. I think it's under selling what is in fact a really lovely pigment by making it look like other manufacturers Naples hues. Hope that makes sense lol

Yes, you're right the Naples yellow is a really great pigment on it's own - I'll pass your feedback onto MH himself...

The 'Naples Yellow' is pbr24 (according to Jacksonart Michael Harding color chart pull-down) ... so a brown, but it fits so perfectly in this scrumptious trifecta. Lovely, just wonderful. I want all three and those you had to the left. This video opens a door to some very fine art. Thanks. Great pigments make me happy.

That was delightful!! Thank you! Enjoy your day!

Amazing colors. I agree that these are very usable colors. I would like to keep a small tube of each on hand in my studio. I could see a lot of uses.

Perfect! Just in time to paint dry grass and reeds , in winter sunlight, by the sea 💕

I can see Manet in these colours, a journey of discovery every one of those mixes

Hi Vicky! First of all: love your videos! I was wondering: how do you get in the EU (f.e. painting in France or Italy) when colours like the genuine naples yellow are forbidden (meaning: you can’t buy them here because of the lead). So do you have any problems at the airport bringing those colours here?

Here in Poland you only can't buy Flake White (or any paint containing PW1) in tubes. PW1 in cans is perfectly fine. In case of other lead-based paints such as Naples Yellow or Lead-Tin Yellow you can buy tubes without any problem. Well, the only problem is steep price.

@@ulutiu Thanks for your tip! If I can't order from a Polish shop directly I'll ask my family over there to get it for me :)

If I mix liquitex burnt sienna with cadmium yellow can I call it Naples yellow? I saw somebody do it with raw sienna.

At £40 for 40ml I don't think my painting is good enough yet for Naples yellow light!!!

I'm curious to hear your opinion on safety practices while using paints like genuine naples yellow and chinese vermilion? I see you aren't wearing gloves; what are the precautions you take working with lead, antimony, and mercury based paints?

How is it that you became an ambassador vicki?

Loving the tour of MH paints but some of the words just don't match what I see!

The appearance of colours can vary widely from one screen to another, I use 2 screens when I edit and it always amazes me how different the colours look from one screen to the other! There's very little we can do to mitigate this I'm afraid
