The bricks were not painted. We selected and blended 3 types of bricks to create a blended aged look. When I ordered them, I selected 25% of a creamy/white brick, 25% of a red brick or darker brick, and 50% of "old chicago" bricks. You can also select any reclaimed brick that has lots of variation to create the look. But blending the creamier/white bricks is the trick to lighten it up.
