Titanium White
Cadmium Yellow Light
Yellow Ochre
Cadmium Yellow Meduim* - I'm really starting to fall in love with this color.
Cadmium Red Light
Cadmium Red Medium*
Permanent Alizarin Crimson*
Burnt Sienna - I think I'm addicted to this pigment. I'm not sure how I could paint without it on my palette.
Viridian - after reading some reports on non-lasting qualities of sap green, I have been using Viridian instead and have been mixing my own sap green.
Ultramarine Blue
Phthalo Blue - I love this blue and use it sometimes to give a little punch to my shadows.
There you have it. I don't use the fancy colors, not yet, anyway. Mostly because either I haven't tried them, yet, or they're too expensive for me to get hooked on. I find that a more limited palette is better for me. I try to keep things simple.

This looks like a painting in itself. :) I use a palette with about the same colors you do when I paint in oils or acrylics. I do mostly pastels and try to use a limited number of pastels in each painting as well. Your paintings are very nice and I enjoy your stories.

your photography is just as vibrant as your paintings:)
