    You bet...and I can't say this often enough if you notice the archives. Try
    SAX's own brand of True Color Tempera. Comes in gallons with pumps. The
    pumps "work" as oppose to all the other paint using pumps. Always smooth and
    free-flowing. The paint is not thin but a good consistancy to use
    immediately out of the container. The red and blue are "true"...not so with
    Crayola...and mix well to make a fairly decent purple. And the "kicker"?
    It's actually cheaper than the other well-known brands. I've tried just
    about all of them in my career and this, in my humble opinion, is the best.
    Toodles....
