Gamblin - Torrit Grey

 Torrit Grey 2011

If you took all the pigments in the color spectrum and mixed them together, what color would you make?

 

Every spring, Gamblin Artists Colors collects a wealth of pigments from our Torit® Air Filtration system. We filter the air around the areas where we handle dry pigments so that our workers are not exposed to pigment dust. Rather than sending any of our high quality, expensive pigments into the landfill, Gamblin paint makers recycle them into "Gamblin Torrit Grey".

 

"Pigment dust should not go into the earth, water or landfill, but into paint," says Robert Gamblin.

 

The mix of pigments is different every year, so Torrit Grey is always unique and will never be repeated. Torrit Grey tends to have a greenish tinge because of the great strength of the Phthalo Green pigment, which is a dark bluish green. Torrit Grey varies from a medium dove grey to a dark earthy grey.

We are now dating the tubes, so artists can collect them from year to year and enjoy the unique qualities of each edition. Whatever you create with these popular limited edition colors is solely up to you and your imagination.

Our Torrit Grey store promotion, which runs each year through the end of April in celebration of Earth Day, not only recycles pigment dust into paint but focuses artists on the importance of recycling, studio and environmental safety. Complimentary 37ml tubes of Torrit Grey are only available while supplies last through your local fine art materials retailer.

 

We still have a few free tubes available.

 

 Last year, we distributed more than 11,000 tubes of Torrit Grey! Limitations are often your greatest creative assets and it is remarkable what talented artists can achieve with a color palette limited to white, or black and Torrit Grey.

The Torrit Grey Painting Competition, conducted annually in the Fall, attracts more entries every year. In 2009, we received over 160 submissions from painters willing to take the challenge of making a value based painting using only Torrit Grey and any black or white oil paint. The competition is judged by Robert Gamblin and the winners receive a supply of Gamblin Artists' materials.

Greetings!

 

Since we began our "Dabbling" on Monday's attendees (me included) has been having a lot of fun. In October, during our Oil and Acrylic Month we will repeat our "Dabble" day on Saturday. If there is enough interest we may continue the Saturday "repeats" during the winter months. be sure to review our future schedule we have planned some great "Dabbles" during October related to oil painting.

 

This past summer we shared some "Dabble" day products at this summer's Hot Summer Night Events in July and August. Many attendees at these events were able to try out some of our products. Since our products are so well received we are offering to take our "Dabble's" on the road. If your group or club needs some added activities to your meetings  then if our schedule permits let us bring our "Dabble" day to you.
