Jo Sonja’s Decorative Painting System developed as a
result of collaboration between innovative paint company, Chroma, and
renowned American Folk Artist, Jo Sonja Jansen. The commitment of both,
was the development of a brand that used today’s exciting technologies
to harness the techniques of the past so that a lasting heritage would
be produced for the future.
As one of the first to bring Decorative Art to Australia through her
travel teaching, Jo Sonja Jansen was able to ensure that the colours and
mediums in the range met the exacting standards of serious Decorative
Painters. The brand was first introduced to the market in 1985 and
quickly become synonymous with fine quality and versatility, a position
it maintains today.

Jo Sonja's Artists' Colours are flow formula acrylics offering the look
and feel of traditional gouache. They offer superb handling and brushing
characteristics together with purity and strength of colour. Acrylic

throughout a painting, as the paints will dry within minutes.
