Introducing the Jak Connolly Polymath Series by Quantum
The Jak Connolly “Polymath” series was inspired by his love for oil painting and from the old masters' techniques of the renaissance period.
Often the masters create a monochrome “dead layer” first in a neutral value scale by mixing complementary colors ultra marine (blue) and burnt umber (orange, brown). This would give a very neutral black if mixed correctly.
As black tattoo ink always heals on a colder blue tone, Jack has added a pinch of orange to bring the black back into balance once it has healed on the skin, thus creating a truer black than anything else on the market to date.
Polymath value washes are neutral bloq cut down with a hint of white to bring the washes into a true monochrome semi-opacity. Which in turn crafts a smooth transition of values from skin tone to black.
The Polymath set is knowledge from the old artists. Available in 1oz and 4oz.
Keep in mind that individual perceptions of color may vary based on factors such as screen calibration and lighting conditions.
