Golden - Heavy Body Mixing Set

Heavy Body Mixing Set

Master color mixing with warm and cool primaries that create any hue you need

Split-primary mixing eliminates the muddy compromises that plague standard color sets. This collection provides warm and cool versions of each primary, two yellows, two reds, two blues, plus essential secondary greens, allowing you to mix remarkably clean secondaries and complex neutrals without fighting against pigment bias. The included Gloss Glazing Liquid extends these concentrated colors into transparent layers, transforming the same tubes from opaque passages to luminous veils.

Golden formulates each Heavy Body color around pure pigment with no fillers or extenders, resulting in thick, buttery paint that holds palette knife texture and brush marks. Sheen varies naturally between colors based on pigment properties rather than added matting agents, this affects surface quality but not mixing behavior or permanence. Generous Titanium White and the glazing medium support the twelve chromatic colors through both direct application and color adjustment.

Professional pigments like Quinacridone Magenta and Phthalo Blue deliver intense tinting strength; a small amount shifts mixtures dramatically. Raw Umber and Titan Buff provide earthy foundation tones for naturalistic work. This system teaches intuitive color mixing while providing serious working capacity for finished paintings.
