Got a jackpot haul of vintage art supplies off FB marketplace today 😍

With the added bonus of some very toxic vintage colors ⚠️ Lead and mercury and cadmium, yum yum yum!

Photo of a collection of art supplies: canvases, metal easels, tool boxes of paints, and a spread of Bob Ross, Walter Foster, and Grumbacher art instruction books. And my corgi, sniffing at a book. Photo of a tube of Grumbacher-brand Cadmium Vermillion oil paint. "Pre-tested!" the tube declares, and further reads: "Permanent artists' oil colors", also in French and Spanish, and the amount, "37ml" Cadmium vermillion is highly toxic. Photo of a 1.25fl oz tube of Naples Yellow oil paint. It still has a green Wal-Mart sticker, and was purchased sometime in the 1980's for $3.68. Adjusting for inflation, this tube would have cost $15.14 today. This tube of Naples Yellow also contains lead! Photo of a .33 fl. oz. tube of Duro-brand Strontium yellow oil paint, in a plastic sandwich bag. Strontium yellow (or strontium chromate) is a carcinogen.

If Bob Ross uses a pallet, then so can you! Anyone can. It’s a great way to hold those thicker paints together and available at brushtip.

Watercolor brushes are so unique. The way they seem to move the watercolor around. Or dot here and there. Or large swaths of color in one sweep. All of them interesting.
