Winsor & Newton - Designers Gouache (14ml) Lamp Black 337 (S1)

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.

Winsor & Newton - Lea Radial Studio Easel

Single mast design Made from seasoned beechwood Tilting facility to achieve your perfect position Maximum canvas height: 182 cm Whole easel height is 240cm (95") Weight: 6.7 kg A single mast design, the Winsor & Newton Thames Radial Easel (now the Lea Easel) can be tilted to achieve the perfect working position. Constructed from seasoned beechwood, this easel provides a robust and rigid frame, making it ideal for working on larger pieces of art. Why use an Easel? Many artists prefer to use an easel because it enables them to work more freely, and to step back and view artwork from a distance. Working in a vertical position reduces the possibility of perspective being skewed, prevents dust gathering on slow-drying media, and the build up of loose pastel, chalk or charcoal sitting on the support. How Do I use An Easel? The following videos give further information on using an easel: Starting To Draw: Using An Easel What types of Easel are available? We stock a variety of easels to ensure the artist's every requirement is met. Field or Portable Easels are designed to be taken outdoors, and are the perfect choice for travelling artists or those wanting to plein air paint. This type of easel is also preferable for artists who prefer a level of mobility around their studio. Folding to a lightweight, compact size, portable easels require little storage space. Available in H-Frame, A-Frame and Single Mast designs, Studio Easels are ideal for the artist who has a dedicated studio space, where an easel can remain standing indefinitely. H-Frame easels have a strong base that makes them sturdier than A-Frame easels, and better able to handle large canvases. A-Frame or Lyre easels have two legs at the front and one at the rear, which pushes forward allowing the easel to be flattened and easily stored. Single Mast easels are simple and affordable, a great choice for beginning artists, art students, or anyone with limited storage space. Portable and easy to store, Table Easels are small enough to place on a table top, and perfect for artists who prefer to sit while working, or whose work is on a more modest scale.

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. Click here for further product information on Winsor & Newton's Water Colour range. Watercolours 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. Which 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. 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. 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. Which surfaces best support Water Colour? 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. Which techniques work best with watercolour? The following links show some new techniques on how watercolours can be used: Water Colour Revolution Techniques For Contemporary Water Colour Focus On Water Colour Illustration Techniques Who are Winsor & Newton? In 1832, William Winsor and Henry Newton introduced the first moist water colours to the world. Today, Winsor and Newton remain the premier choice for artists, offering a wide variety of fine art supplies including: oil, water colour, acrylic and alkyd paints, pastels, artists' brushes, canvases, papers and portfolios.
