Fine art recipe

Creating paint   Turner Colour Works Ltd Factory

Every fine art student knows acrylic paint. It is like we say; Mom’s taste. For beginner it is what we can call a new world.

1)  Mixing materials

3 materials are used to make the paints : water, pigment and a medium(which is sticky).

If the proportions are not strictly respected, it doesn’t become a paint. Because of subtle “variations”in colours’ tone, the combination ration depend also on craftmans’ hand.

Happy New Year!
