I have loved every other paint I’ve gotten from Gapka and the quality of this one is no different but this hue of burnt umber is way different from what I’m used too. It has purple undertones that render it cooler rather than the warmer red undertone umber I am used too. Tried to use in my current painting but couldn’t it threw my whole palette off.
Hi Shannon!
Thanks for your review and for being a repeat customer, we really appreciate your support. We are sorry to hear that the Burnt Umber did not meet your expectations. Tones for Burnt Umber can vary across paint brands depending on the pigment used and the source; ours does lean a little more purple in the undertones. We try to photograph our paints to showcase the undertones as best we can, but photography and computer screens aren't the best for maintaining color accuracy. We appreciate your feedback and will continue to work on improving our photography and color descriptions to avoid causing disappointment. Please reach out to us at contact@gapkapaints.com if you would like to discuss how we can make this right for you.
