I got my turquoise as regular latex paint at my local Home Improvement store. They'll custom mix as little as a quart so your options are limitless. I bought a shade darker since I would be adding white plaster of paris and water. Glaze can also be found in these stores. You can use those little bottles of craft paint from Michael's or Walmart for tinting your glaze.
