    Respectfully...
    Those are common and widely used colors.
    Perhaps try another store.
    Or mix your own from primary colors.
    Google burnt umber color code
    burnt sienna color code
    yellow ochre color code
    Also, youtube can have some good help
    on color mixing.
    Good luck to you

    I believe Hobby Lobby has them. My daughter-in-law is an artist, and she purchases Liquatex tube paints for me.

    Liquitex is a good and fairly priced acrylic. Yes... Hobby Lobby carries a limited supply of it. Jo Sonja is a nice acrylic... creamy and nice to work with IMO, but you'll prolly need to order online or find a good art store.The craft paints like Folk Art, etc. are very inexpensive and can be found most anywhere... and while not the same quality, they serve a purpose, also. They often use their own color names, so when you're lookin for "burnt umber" the closest thing they have might be named "barn door" or somethin... LOL
