At this point in my painting journey, one of my greatest weaknesses is getting to the bright white too quickly. I need to darken my darks a lot.
To me, if I do a painting right, the pure white on my painting should positively radiate with light. If I get to pure white to soon and it doesn't mean a whole lot once on the painting, it means I've done something wrong with the darks.
All that to say, a brighter white paint is the last thing I need right now. I'd rather be able to masterfully make the white I have stand out.
