Some people were asking a while back about high-intensity oil colors that I bought called Radiant by Gamblin, and Vivid by Utrecht. So I did a quick test using ONLY Radiant and Vivid colors and just to up the degree of difficulty I did it on a scrape 12" square piece of Nara paper - which is a Yupo-like paper designed for alcohol inks and acts like a sheet of ice when using oil colors.

basically, I just swooshed paint until a face appeared. Not all colors are available, but they work well with regular colors too. This was to see what they look like if used exclusively.

Wow! I'm surprised that these all worked together. They are not colors I would choose normally, but now I am rethinking it. Nice portraits Bongo. Love your hand. ;)
