Do you find that there are any undertones to "Pure Earth"?

10 years ago

Hi! I am wanting to paint our high-ceilinged living room in Pure Earth. Do you find it has any undertones that come up once it is on the walls? We have done small swatches, but it is always difficult to tell what a full painted room will look like.

Did you feel it darkened the room a lot?

It didn't darken this room, however there's a lot of white here. The color Pure Earth is a darker color than I'm used to using but I really love it. I've used all colors with it with no problem.
