The wonderful thing about being able to mix your own granulating color combinations is that you have a wide variety available to you without a large investment.
Granulating colors can help to add texture to objects such as wood, rocks, landscapes or abstract paintings, but if you are looking for clean clear washes for skies or flowers, then you may want to avoid it.
The real key here is to use Mars black as your foundation, then blend it with any one to two earth or cobalt colors, and apply color to a wet surface, let it sit, or run down the paper, and leave it alone, try not to over-brush it or you will loose the effect.
Find it at your local art store, or favorite art supplier.
