Sepia

Low staining and lightfast, this semi-transparent black-brown is a palette basic. From its rich, deep state in concentrated strokes, Sepia can dilute to a subtle mushroom hue. Enjoy this transition in washes from near to far or from shadow to light in plowed fields and farm subjects. Fence posts the wet, West Coast kind are fun to paint, as are bulrushes and cattails. Try each wet into wet.
