Art Spectrum Gouache is a resoluble, quick-drying,
waterbased colour of excellent opacity with a consistent, velvety
finish. Made in the classic tradition, all colours are carefully
triple-milled to ensure maximum brilliance and even coating of pigments.
This method has been proven by the test of time. Concentrated pigment
colour ensures a little goes a long way.
Genuine, water-based gouache in various forms has been in use since
ancient times. The 14th century saw its use in beautifully illustrated
manuscripts and JMW Turner, the English watercolourist, used gouache
extensively on coloured papers.
