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:
- High Pigmentation: Every color pops off your paper, even in a single layer.
- Smooth Consistency: exactly what you want from a gouache
- Vegan: No animal by-products, perfect for conscious painting.
- Beautiful sets
- Large selection of colours.
Negatives
- Price: The gouache is pricey, but no more expensive than other artist quality gouache.
- 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.
