Geneva Black consistency.

Barbara

It's been a couple of months now and I absolutely love the Geneva paints. The consistent nature of the paints is so satisfying to work with. I am wondering though about my black tube. It doesn't have the same creamy texture of the rest of the paints and I have to add oils to it. Shaking it hasn't helped. Is this normal?

Same issue here, except my BU also has this thick cream cheese texture.  I have never seen BU or Black look the same as the videos.

Hi guys! We had a thick batch of black and a thick batch of brown that went out are have been replacing for anyone who emails. Send me an email over at [email protected] and I'll get a replacement out to you. Sorry about that!!

@Gamble_Nelkin that's very nice of Geneva.

But do you have any advice on how to handle this without the need for a replacement?  In other words, is it just a matter of a little Linseed oil and my black will be the same?

This perhaps is a black produced by mixing burnt umber and ultramarine. This happens with burnt umber.
