PRODUCT INFORMATION
Winsor & Newton 6 Designers Gouache Primary Colours, 14ml Tube
Winsor & Newton have been producing fine artist Designer Gouache since the mid 1930's. Today, the Designers' Gouache range benefits from significant developments in technology and is smoother, flatter, more opaque and more brilliant than ever before.
Designers' Gouache colours are a range of opaque water colours, mainly used by designers, illustrators and commercial artists to create vibrant illustrations in solid colour.
Gouache is also widely used in fine art as an opaque water colour. Can be used thinly for a wash at the start of a painting then applied in thicker layers towards the end. Unlike transparent water colour, where you need to plan and reserve the white of the paper, gouache is more controllable and enables you to remove mistakes and re-paint.
Features
- Intermixability - All Designers Gouache colours are fully intermixable. Designers Gouache, Professional Water Colour, and Cotman Water Colour can also be fully intermixed.
- Pigments - The opacity of Designers Gouache is due to the exceptionally high levels of pigmentation in the formulation, which results in both covering power and clean colour mixing. The natural attribute of each pigment adds to the level of opacity and contributes to covering power.
- Matt Finish - As a result of the high level of pigmentation and the Gum Arabic binder Designers Gouache dries to a matt finish. This reduces reflection when photographing gouache art work.
