As much as I love Jackson’s, this is a misnomer. Multi-pigment paints do not cause less clean color mixes. Mixing colors that are complimentary or near complimentary to each other is what causes the mix to get ‘muddy’.

The majority of Roman Szmal colours are single pigment paints, which ensures clean mixing and allows artists to really customise the colours on their palette. Check out the full range of colours: l8r.it/L7uk
