ALLES OVER // Holbein Gouache

EVERYTHING ABOUT // Holbein Gouache

How much fun is it to discover a new brand or material? If you have been following me for a while, you know how enthusiastic I can get about this. Holbein Gouache was such a discovery, at the beginning of setting up Splendith. Fortunately, more and more people are discovering this fine gouache . In this blog I will tell you why I am so enthusiastic about it.
How nice is it when you work with a material that does exactly what you want?! Holbein Gouache is one of those materials. The pigmentation is rich and the consistency of the paint is just right for a gouache.

Why Holbein Gouache?

What makes Holbein special is the purity and clarity of the colours and the texture. They are vibrant and intense, even when diluted with water. Among the gouaches in the shop, Holbein has the largest selection of colours. With the expansion of 48 colours in the Irodori series, there are no less than 84+48 colours available. Another plus: the paint is vegan. For the conscious artists among us, this is a fantastic, vegan option.

Pros:

  1. High Pigmentation: Every color pops off your paper, even in a single layer.
  2. Smooth Consistency: exactly what you want from a gouache
  3. Vegan: No animal by-products, perfect for conscious painting.
  4. Beautiful sets
  5. Large selection of colours.

Negatives

  1. Price: The gouache is pricey, but no more expensive than other artist quality gouache.
  2. Availability: Not always available in your local store, but fortunately easy to find in our shop.

 

 

Conclusion

For Splendith I am always looking for the best materials for my art projects. Holbein Gouache has definitely earned a permanent place in my toolkit. The paint dries matt, which gives a beautiful, velvety look to my work.

Elke keer al wilde ik iets moois maken, dan kon ik niet de goede materialen vinden. Avonden lang struinde ik online naar kwalitatieve en vrolijke knutselmaterialen voor mijn projecten.

Daar begon het idee voor een shop, met een selectie van mooie materialen.

Met de blog en materialen hoop ik je te inspireren om creatief aan de slag te gaan.
