"Inorganic – Many years ago, a well-known British artist asked me to create a lean but robust, fast-drying white that didn’t rely on extenders and siccatives for its qualities. Hence, I made this 50/50 blend of Titanium and Lead Whites, ground with linseed oil and combining the virtues of each. This white can be applied to either acrylic or glue-sized canvasses. Under normal conditions, the artist can paint on Foundation White in 4 to 5 days. If you find Foundation White too dense to brush on, thin it with a slight amount of turpentine."

Great all-round white, not just for use as a primer. It's a 50:50 mix of lead white and titanium, giving the benefits of lead (easier mixing, a warmer tone and better film-forming properties) and those of titanium (greater opacity, brightness and slower drying). Lead dries too fast for me, making alterations to the painting difficult after the first day or two, but this has the perfect drying time for my way of working. This is currently my go-to white. Reasonably priced as well.
