Joseph Z’s Greys – Cool, Neutral and Warm
Share:
Master artist Joseph Zbukvic is known worldwide for his use of grey in his watercolor paintings. “I’m always asked by my students, as well as other artists, what grey I use. I had actually been making up my own shades of grey by mixing just about every colour on my palette, so their question almost impossible to answer. This led me to develop three different greys in collaboration with DANIEL SMITH, as part of their Signature Series of Extra Fine Watercolors. I hope these watercolors bring success to everyone using them.”
Why multiple greys? Joseph suggested creating a range of greys for painting in different light, because light can be either cool, neutral or warm. On its own, grey is so expressive – for example, see how Joseph captures the feeling of light in his city landscapes. Greys are also very useful for quickly modifying other colors when mixed.

“I designed this grey to use for those frosty morning and rainy winter day paintings. It has a lovely greenish sediment, which is perfect for low light or early morning light effects. I think this is a must for anyone painting winter scenes.”

Joseph Z’s Greys are wonderful for studio and plein air work – having reliable, pre-mixed grays ready to use is helpful when time is short and light is constantly changing.
