| From a P.B.S. TV documentary broastcast, Houston 2002: "Welcome to the world of British artist Michael Price, the first modern man to rediscover the technique of pigment preparation of the Renaissance masters.... Since the transition from the use of natural pigments to modern-day synthetic pigments, many of the studio secrets of the Renaissance were lost. Then Michael Price, after seven years of painstaking research rediscovered what was done 500 years ago. First, he found the difference between synthetic pigments and mineral pigments is the pigment particle size. The synthetics are incredibly fine powder whereas the mineral pigments are fine sand. He began to separate the different particle sizes of the mineral pigment azurite into different hues of blue from a deep rich blue to a pale sky blue just like the masters of the Renaissance. Eventually, he began doing this with other minerals such as realgar, malachite, cinnabar and lapis lazuli. Today, Michael Price is absorbed by the language of Renaissance colour and the intensity of natural pigments...a rewarding discovery." |
