Sennelier Extra Fine Gouache 21 ml

GOUACHE : EXEPTIONAL COLOURING POWER

Wonderful for fine art painting. This range of colours is manufactured using Sennelier artists' quality pigments and superior quality natural gums.

The unctuous consistency of these colours enables the creation of regular backgrounds. These Artists' quality Gouaches have exceptional colouring power and give deep and opaque brush strokes.

These colours are mixable with each other and are highly colourfast (with the exception of a few clearly mentioned tones, necessary for illustration work).

Sennelier Gouaches can be applied with a brush, air-brush or quill, on most types of thick paper and card. Water-soluble, they can be mixed with watercolours and inks in order to obtain other combinations of opacity or transparency.

Sennelier Egg Tempera is an authentic formulation of classic egg tempera as used by artists since the Renaissance. In fact, before the rise of oil painting, egg tempera was the predominant painting medium in the 16th century. Much of the religious panel painting done between the 12th and the 15th century was done in this delicate and subtle medium, which is capable of detailed and complex effects. The Sennelier egg tempera is famous as the medium used by Marc Chagall in many of his most spectacular works.
