A professional, water-based paint similar to watercolour but with the addition of chalk added to the pigment to create an opaque matt finish. Use straight out of the tube for an opaque, matt effect or dilute with water for more transparency. A popular medium for illustrators and graphic designers.
Can be used on dark and light colour paper
Works well with watercolour paper and brushes
Paint can be re-activated with water so is not waterproof

I bought this brush some time ago based on a recommendation from someone— can't remember who though. I then forgot about it until I received a request to write a review from The Southbank Art Company. I've now tried it, and I've found it to be a lovely brush to use. It lays down the paint beautifully. It also holds a lot of paint enabling continued use without having to return to the palette so often. The point of the brush is good too, giving a lovely narrow lines where necessary.
I'll continue to use this brush, and will probably look at buying other sizes too.

Just had my Phil Thomas painting framed here. The framing quality is outstanding, it looks amazing.

Great experience. The staff were really kind, you can tell they genuinely care about creativity and the people walking in the door. It made the whole experience feel that much more personal. My order came to less than it would have cost from Winsor & Newton directly, which made it possible to get everything I needed without compromising on quality. Great selection, thoughtful service, and a warm atmosphere. I’ll definitely be back!
