Description

Sustainability is central to this unusual and on-going series of Random Grey oil colour. Taking the leftovers from the costly hand production of Schmincke Pastels, which are almost 100% pure pigment, and passing them through an edge mill, Random Grey is made. Due to this process, each year will turn up a different grey, based on the varied colour production of Pastel.

This process has a historical precedent: before the invention of the collapsible tube, when paints were hand-made usually by the artist, leftovers were too precious to be discarded. The remains of paint on the artist’s palette were scrapped together and mixed with a little extra oil to produce a random grey, which was used for underpainting – the French called this a grisaille.

Norma Professional Random Grey 2021 vintage is a dark greenish grey, perfect for setting up a portrait.

Available in 35ml tubes while stocks last.
