Kuretake Gansai Tambi Sets

artstuff — Sat, 11 Jan 2025 10:59:22 +0000

Kuretake Gansai Tambi (Gansai meaning “vibrance” and Tambi meaning “aesthetic”) are artist-quality Japanese paints that are described as watercolours, but have a very different feel and effect.
Kuretake Gansai Tambi is a traditional Japanese water-based paint. It can be used as gouache or watered down as watercolour, and is lightfast.
The colours are vibrant without being overly saturated.
While Western watercolors tend to have a stronger focus on transparency, Gansai is meant to be more opaque, especially when painted in thicker layers.

Available in:

Granulating Colours – set 5 + Pan
Graphite Colours – set 6
Starry Colours – set 6
Pearl Colours – set 6
Gem Colours – set 6

Derwent Tinted Charcoal Range

artstuff — Tue, 07 Jan 2025 14:54:20 +0000

Tinted Charcoal offers the dramatic beauty of charcoal pencils but with a gentle hint of colour. Easy to control for accurate drawing with less mess, they can still be smudged and blended easily.
A hint of colour blended with the black of charcoal and the grey of graphite. A beautifully subtle means of incorporating colour in your graphite and charcoal drawings.
“Tinted Charcoal is a great addition to the Derwent range of charcoal. The dark subtle colours can be extended with the use of white into a lovely range of muted tones. The pencils can be sharpened for detailed work and smudged and blended for a lovely range of effects. They can give crisp sharp lines or soft aspects to your drawing.” Carole Gordon

Derwent Graphitint Range

artstuff — Tue, 07 Jan 2025 10:06:40 +0000

What is Graphitint? – Graphitint is the name given to a unique range of water-soluble tinted graphite that combines the drama and creativity of pencil drawings, with a hint of soft, subtle colour. Dry Graphitint produces just a suggestion of colour, but water can be added to wash out the lines and make the colour much more vibrant.
Graphitint pencils are made from water-soluble coloured graphite.
The colours are not permanent, so can be lifted and reactivated on the page- like watercolours or traditional aquarelle coloured pencils.
Use Graphitint pencils on rough and smooth surfaces. The rough surface will give you a grainier result, which you smooth out with water, whilst the smooth paper will be great for illustrations and small details.

FC Albrecht Durer Watercolour Markers

artstuff — Tue, 11 Jun 2024 13:49:24 +0000

Albrecht Durer watercolour markers allow artists to draw, just as you would with a regular marker and when water is applied to what has been created the art will turn into a mesmerizing watercolour painting! This art marker features two nibs – a brush nib for all-over colour and dynamic sketches, and a fibre tip (1-2mm) for outlines, detailed drawings, and precise lines.
Albrecht Durer watercolour markers’ premium quality ink is water-based, water soluble, has excellent lightfastness and will not bleed through the paper.
Use them wet or dry! Depending on the paper being used, the pigments can be completely dissolved, and will then behave in the same way as classic watercolor paints. If water is not added to the markers they will behave like regular art markers. A great travel companion too.
