A wonderful neutral, cocoa brown. Named for the mineral collectors who discovered it in San Diego County in 1912, Sicklerite Genuine displays beautiful granulation and lets down from a dark chocolate brown to a soft cafe au lait. A true neutral, it tones down bright colors, creating color harmony with seductive texture. Try mixing it with French Ultramarine for an atmospheric blue-gray or Sleeping Beauty Turquoise Genuine for a soft ocean green.
Starting with 10 parts water to 1 part paint (by weight) in the palette, our chemist paints the top half of the swatch uniformly with a round brush to show the paint’s color and characteristics. For the bottom half, he dips a ¾” flat brush into the paint well just once, then applies the color in stripes until the brush is dry, which shows the color’s tone and behavior through a wash. We use these swatches for color matching during the manufacturing process.
