Winsor & Newton - Designers Gouache (14ml) Magenta 380 (S2)

Winsor & Newton - Designers Gouache (14ml) Magenta 380 (S2)

Size: 14ml Colours: 82 sold individually Artist-Quality Gouache Highly-pigmented & opaque Quick-drying to a matte finish Also available in 37ml tubes, click here to view! Video: Winsor & Newton Designers Gouache - 82 Opaque Watercolours First developed in 1937, Designers Gouache quickly became popular amongst designers, illustrators & commercial artists for it's ability to create bold, vibrant work. Featuring 82 colours, chosen for their strength of colour, undertone and relative opacity, the extensive choice within the Designers Gouache range includes both bright and lightfast colours. Winsor & Newton's Designers Gouache Spectrum Violet is an opaque pigment, deep purple-blue in colour. Moderately durable, with a lower lightfastness rating, Spectrum Violet is provided for its brilliance of colour. Colour Chart: Designers Gouache What is gouache? Gouache is an opaque water-based paint which, in addition to its colour pigment, contains a white pigment, such as chalk, and a binder (usually Gum Arabic).It is the presence of the additional white pigment which gives the medium its characteristic opacity. Gouache is applied, with water, to a support such as water colour paper. The pigment fixes to the support upon evaporation of the water. Gouache dries very quickly and, unlike acrylic, can be reactivated with water. It is possible to overpaint dry gouache with lighter or darker colours, without activating the colour underneath, although this should be done carefully. Brushes used to apply gouache paint should be cared for in the same manner as water colour brushes, and need only mild soap and water to clean them after use. This video illustrates how simple it is to clean and care for water colour brushes. Why use Winsor & Newton Designers Gouache? Available in 14ml and 37ml tubes, all Winsor & Newton Designers Gouache colours are fully intermixable within the range, and with Winsor & Newton Water Colours.Exceptionally high levels of pigmentation, along with the natural attribute of each pigment, strengthen the opacity of Winsor & Newton Designers Gouache. Drying to a matt finish, this provides both clean colour mixing and excellent covering power. The pigments used in the range determine the permanence of each individual colour. Further information on the permanence and durability of each shade is given on Winsor & Newton Designers Gouache colour chart. How does gouache differ from water colour paint? Originally used to illuminate manuscripts, gouache is heavier than traditional transparent water colour. Containing more colour pigment and an additional white pigment, particles of gouache paint are larger than those of water colour. The tiny particles of water colour pigment become enmeshed in the fibre of the paper being painted, whereas gouache colour rests on the surface of the paper, forming a continuous layer. More versatile than water colour, when gouache is applied with a bristle brush, it is possible to achieve a slight impasto effect. These videos show how gouache and water colour paint compare: An Introduction to the Differences Between Gouache and Water Colour Comparison of Gouache and Water Colour Painting. What to do if your tube dries up? Keeping the caps closed tightly on the tubes will help prevent the paint drying up. Once a tube has dried up, gouache cannot be re-softened. However, the colour may still be used by cutting open the tube, removing the dried paint, then crushing with a pestle and mortar. Place the powder in a container, add a small amount of water, a drop of Gum Arabic, and then mix thoroughly. The resulting mixture may be used as a wash. An alternative method is to add only a couple of drops of water to the powder, to make a paste.  Place the paste in a water colour pan or ice cube tray, and leave to dry. The dried cake of gouache can be used in the same way as a pan of water colour. Which surfaces best support gouache? When choosing a support for gouache, it is important to consider the absorbency, colour and stability of the paper. Our range of Water Colour Paper & Pads offers an extensive choice of size and style, to meet artists' every requirement. Which brushes are best for painting with gouache? Gouache and water colour paint have the same properties, and therefore require brushes with the same characteristics. Water Colour Brushes are designed to hold and evenly control colour, have a fine point, and are able to spring back into shape after every stroke. With a middle body able to hold a good reservoir of colour, a Sable Brush has excellent spring and resilience. The hairs are particularly strong at the brush's fine tip, allowing the brush to be used both delicately and aggressively. Advancements in the production of synthetic hair have resulted in a rise in popularity of Synthetic Water Colour Brushes, especially if price and durability are an issue. Which techniques work best with gouache? The following l

Schmincke - HORADAM Aquarell Watercolour (5ml) Indigo 485 (S2)

Schmincke - HORADAM Aquarell Watercolour (5ml) Indigo 485 (S2)

Made using only the finest pigments Excellent lightfastness 69 single pigment formulations Superior quality Fantastic value for money Also available in half pans Video: Behind The Scenes of Schmincke Watercolour Production Knowing watercolour relies upon the variable characteristics its pigments, more than any other medium, Schmincke watercolour paints use only the finest pigments in their watercolour tubes. The Horadam Aquarell range features excellent levels of light fastness in its collection of vibrant colours. Including 69 single pigment formulations, combined with only the highest standard Kordofan Gum Arabic binding medium, Horadam Aquarell Watercolour Tubes offer a superior quality synonymous with the Schmincke brand. Why choose Schmincke Horadam Aquarell Watercolour Half Pans? Formed by a unique manufacturing process, Schmincke Horadam Aquarell Watercolour Half Pans contain the same high quality formulation as Aquarell Watercolour Tubes. Pans are filled four times, over a period of four months, with the colours being allowed to dry and settle between each filling. This creates a concentrated half pan, ready for use when wetted with water. What is watercolour? Watercolour is produced by the combination of a pigment with a binder, usually Gum Arabic. This is then applied, with water, to a support such as watercolour paper. The pigment fixes to the support upon evaporation of the water. Water colours are water-based, so brushes used to apply the watercolour paint need only mild soap and water to clean them after use. This video illustrates how simple it is to clean and care for watercolour brushes. Why use tube watercolour? Watercolour paint is available in two different formats, tubes and pan. Watercolour tubes are ideal for creating a strong wash quickly, and are popular with artists who are producing large scale work, and using a lot of colours. Tube watercolour lends itself to many different techniques, in contrast to pan colours, which are better suited to creating more detailed artwork. What is better, tube watercolour or half pans? There is no difference in quality between tube watercolour and half pans, the difference is in the application. One of the main features of the tubes is controlled measurement of use, applying as little or as much as required by the artist. Big spaces are more easily covered using tube water colour than when using a half pan. Designed for ease of travel, half pan colours are perfect to use on the go. Half pans are popular with artists who paint infrequently, as the paints may be left for a long periods of time between uses, without affecting their quality. What to do if your tube dries up? Keeping the caps closed tightly on the tubes will help prevent the paint drying up. Once a tube has dried up, the watercolour paint cannot be re-softened. However, the colour may still be used by cutting open the tube, and using in the same way as a pan of watercolour.  Which surfaces best support Watercolour? When choosing a watercolour surface, it is important to consider the absorbency, colour and stability of the paper. Our range of watercolour paper & pads offers an extensive choice of size and style, to meet artists' every requirement. Which brushes are best for watercolour painting? Watercolour painting requires the brush to hold large amounts of water and paint. Natural hair brushes, particularly Red Sable brushes, tend to be favoured by artists working with watercolour. With a middle body able to hold a good reservoir of colour, Sable hair has excellent spring and resilience. The hairs are particularly strong at the brush's fine tip, allowing the brush to be used both delicately and aggressively. Advancements in the production of synthetic hair have resulted in a rise in popularity of Synthetic Watercolour Brushes, especially if price and durability are an issue. Who are Schmincke? Founded in 1881 by Hermann Schmincke and Josef Horadam, the Schmincke Company originated in Düsseldorf. Renowned for "tradition, passion and quality", Schmincke continue to manufacture all their products in the German town of Erkrath. Combining the latest technology with handmade processes, Schmincke produce the finest calibre artists' colours, which are predominantly single pigmented.

Available in up to 85 colours Superior pigment quality - no dyes Offers the same intensity as Heavy Body acrylics Great for a variety of applications Can be used with other acrylics Golden Fluid Acrylics equal the intensity of Golden Heavy Body Acrylics but have an even, flowing characteristic that's useful for dry brush applications, fine details, pouring, spraying, staining techniques and more. These are highly intense, permanent acrylic colours with a consistency that's similar to heavy cream. Produced with only lightfast pigments and no dyes, they offer very strong colours with a silky consistency. Fluid Acrylics are created by loading an acrylic polymer binder with concentrated levels of quality pigments for a wide selection of permanent and lightfast colours. No fillers or extenders are added and the pigment load is comparable to Golden Heavy Body Acrylics. Fluids allow for smooth flowing applications while retaining colour intensity, tinting strength, film integrity, and adhesion. These paints blend easily with all acrylic colours, and readily tint gels, mediums, gessoes and grounds. Fluid Acrylics are extremely versatile, and ideal for fine brushwork, glazing, staining, water media techniques and many more. Mix Fluid Acrylics with Airbrush Medium for airbrush application of artwork including textiles.

Schmincke - HORADAM Aquarell Watercolour (5ml) Gold 893 (S2)

Schmincke - HORADAM Aquarell Watercolour (5ml) Gold 893 (S2)

Made using only the finest pigments Excellent lightfastness 69 single pigment formulations Superior quality Fantastic value for money Also available in half pans Video: Behind The Scenes of Schmincke Watercolour Production Knowing watercolour relies upon the variable characteristics its pigments, more than any other medium, Schmincke watercolour paints use only the finest pigments in their watercolour tubes. The Horadam Aquarell range features excellent levels of light fastness in its collection of vibrant colours. Including 69 single pigment formulations, combined with only the highest standard Kordofan Gum Arabic binding medium, Horadam Aquarell Watercolour Tubes offer a superior quality synonymous with the Schmincke brand. Why choose Schmincke Horadam Aquarell Watercolour Half Pans? Formed by a unique manufacturing process, Schmincke Horadam Aquarell Watercolour Half Pans contain the same high quality formulation as Aquarell Watercolour Tubes. Pans are filled four times, over a period of four months, with the colours being allowed to dry and settle between each filling. This creates a concentrated half pan, ready for use when wetted with water. What is watercolour? Watercolour is produced by the combination of a pigment with a binder, usually Gum Arabic. This is then applied, with water, to a support such as watercolour paper. The pigment fixes to the support upon evaporation of the water. Water colours are water-based, so brushes used to apply the watercolour paint need only mild soap and water to clean them after use. This video illustrates how simple it is to clean and care for watercolour brushes. Why use tube watercolour? Watercolour paint is available in two different formats, tubes and pan. Watercolour tubes are ideal for creating a strong wash quickly, and are popular with artists who are producing large scale work, and using a lot of colours. Tube watercolour lends itself to many different techniques, in contrast to pan colours, which are better suited to creating more detailed artwork. What is better, tube watercolour or half pans? There is no difference in quality between tube watercolour and half pans, the difference is in the application. One of the main features of the tubes is controlled measurement of use, applying as little or as much as required by the artist. Big spaces are more easily covered using tube water colour than when using a half pan. Designed for ease of travel, half pan colours are perfect to use on the go. Half pans are popular with artists who paint infrequently, as the paints may be left for a long periods of time between uses, without affecting their quality. What to do if your tube dries up? Keeping the caps closed tightly on the tubes will help prevent the paint drying up. Once a tube has dried up, the watercolour paint cannot be re-softened. However, the colour may still be used by cutting open the tube, and using in the same way as a pan of watercolour.  Which surfaces best support Watercolour? When choosing a watercolour surface, it is important to consider the absorbency, colour and stability of the paper. Our range of watercolour paper & pads offers an extensive choice of size and style, to meet artists' every requirement. Which brushes are best for watercolour painting? Watercolour painting requires the brush to hold large amounts of water and paint. Natural hair brushes, particularly Red Sable brushes, tend to be favoured by artists working with watercolour. With a middle body able to hold a good reservoir of colour, Sable hair has excellent spring and resilience. The hairs are particularly strong at the brush's fine tip, allowing the brush to be used both delicately and aggressively. Advancements in the production of synthetic hair have resulted in a rise in popularity of Synthetic Watercolour Brushes, especially if price and durability are an issue. Who are Schmincke? Founded in 1881 by Hermann Schmincke and Josef Horadam, the Schmincke Company originated in Düsseldorf. Renowned for "tradition, passion and quality", Schmincke continue to manufacture all their products in the German town of Erkrath. Combining the latest technology with handmade processes, Schmincke produce the finest calibre artists' colours, which are predominantly single pigmented. Schmincke offer an array of paints to suit all abilities and budgets, including Akademie, a collection of inexpensive acrylic colours developed for students and beginners.

Video: Winsor & Newton Designers Gouache - 82 Opaque Watercolours First developed in 1937, Designers Gouache quickly became popular amongst designers, illustrators & commercial artists for it's ability to create bold, vibrant work. Featuring 82 colours, chosen for their strength of colour, undertone and relative opacity, the extensive choice within the Designers Gouache range includes both bright and lightfast colours. Winsor & Newton's Designers Gouache Spectrum Violet is an opaque pigment, deep purple-blue in colour. Moderately durable, with a lower lightfastness rating, Spectrum Violet is provided for its brilliance of colour. Colour Chart: Designers Gouache What is gouache? Gouache is an opaque water-based paint which, in addition to its colour pigment, contains a white pigment, such as chalk, and a binder (usually Gum Arabic).It is the presence of the additional white pigment which gives the medium its characteristic opacity. Gouache is applied, with water, to a support such as water colour paper. The pigment fixes to the support upon evaporation of the water. Gouache dries very quickly and, unlike acrylic, can be reactivated with water. It is possible to overpaint dry gouache with lighter or darker colours, without activating the colour underneath, although this should be done carefully. Brushes used to apply gouache paint should be cared for in the same manner as water colour brushes, and need only mild soap and water to clean them after use. This video illustrates how simple it is to clean and care for water colour brushes. Why use Winsor & Newton Designers Gouache? Available in 14ml and 37ml tubes, all Winsor & Newton Designers Gouache colours are fully intermixable within the range, and with Winsor & Newton Water Colours.Exceptionally high levels of pigmentation, along with the natural attribute of each pigment, strengthen the opacity of Winsor & Newton Designers Gouache. Drying to a matt finish, this provides both clean colour mixing and excellent covering power. The pigments used in the range determine the permanence of each individual colour. Further information on the permanence and durability of each shade is given on Winsor & Newton Designers Gouache colour chart. How does gouache differ from water colour paint? Originally used to illuminate manuscripts, gouache is heavier than traditional transparent water colour. Containing more colour pigment and an additional white pigment, particles of gouache paint are larger than those of water colour. The tiny particles of water colour pigment become enmeshed in the fibre of the paper being painted, whereas gouache colour rests on the surface of the paper, forming a continuous layer. More versatile than water colour, when gouache is applied with a bristle brush, it is possible to achieve a slight impasto effect. These videos show how gouache and water colour paint compare: An Introduction to the Differences Between Gouache and Water Colour Comparison of Gouache and Water Colour Painting. What to do if your tube dries up? Keeping the caps closed tightly on the tubes will help prevent the paint drying up. Once a tube has dried up, gouache cannot be re-softened. However, the colour may still be used by cutting open the tube, removing the dried paint, then crushing with a pestle and mortar. Place the powder in a container, add a small amount of water, a drop of Gum Arabic, and then mix thoroughly. The resulting mixture may be used as a wash. An alternative method is to add only a couple of drops of water to the powder, to make a paste.  Place the paste in a water colour pan or ice cube tray, and leave to dry. The dried cake of gouache can be used in the same way as a pan of water colour. Which surfaces best support gouache? When choosing a support for gouache, it is important to consider the absorbency, colour and stability of the paper. Our range of Water Colour Paper & Pads offers an extensive choice of size and style, to meet artists' every requirement. Which brushes are best for painting with gouache? Gouache and water colour paint have the same properties, and therefore require brushes with the same characteristics. Water Colour Brushes are designed to hold and evenly control colour, have a fine point, and are able to spring back into shape after every stroke. With a middle body able to hold a good reservoir of colour, a Sable Brush has excellent spring and resilience. The hairs are particularly strong at the brush's fine tip, allowing the brush to be used both delicately and aggressively. Advancements in the production of synthetic hair have resulted in a rise in popularity of Synthetic Water Colour Brushes, especially if price and durability are an issue.
