Daniel Smith Extra Fine™ Gouache is a professional artist-grade water-based media that produces an opaque matte finish. Made with the same high-quality pigments and gum arabic as Daniel Smith Extra Fine™ Watercolors, this Gouache is uniquely formulated with higher pigment loads to achieve density and opacity without adding whites or other fillers.
Whether your painting style is abstract, representational, illustrative or figurative, you’ll enjoy the creative versatility of Gouache. Apply it as mass tone straight from the tube to get rich, full-bodied solids with single brush strokes. Temper colors smoothly with water to create softer lines and hazy layers. Mix and blend new shades to customize your palette. You can even scrape into it or build up light texture with mark-making tools.
Use Gouache to accent your watercolor paintings with velvety shadows or bold pops of color. Try it with a wider variety of brushes on either light or dark surfaces – explore a whole new world of artistic expression!
Product features:
Exceptional lightfastness and pure, natural opacity.
Intermixable – use with other water-based media (acrylic or transparent watercolours) to produce varying degrees of transparency, opacity and texture.

Product features:
Range of 266 colours (Extra Fine, Primatek and Luminescent).
PrimaTek colours are made with genuine minerals, finely ground into pigments and mixed with gum arabic. Many are semi-precious minerals, such as amethyst, hematite and lapis lazuli and most of these colours have great granulating effects.
The Luminescent range contains four different types: Iridescent colours reflect light like a mirror while Interference colours refract and scatter the light. Duochrome paints bounce between two colours depending on the light source, and Pearlescent colours add an opalescent shine.
All 266 colours are available in 15ml tubes and a selection of 45 colours are available in Half Pans.

It’s great for all types of drawing styles and works beautifully with a dip pen or brush. With a brush, DANIEL SMITH Walnut Ink handles like a transparent watercolour with good layering and lifting capabilities in darker washes. The rich colour resembles traditional walnut-based inks, but will not fade. Walnut Ink is wonderful for adding warmth and historical character when painting over sketches done in permanent black ink, and by itself, it’s reminiscent of the aged ink drawings by Rembrandt and Da Vinci. When used with calligraphy pens, the Walnut Ink gives a beautiful, transparent, warm tone to lettering.
Not only excellent for calligraphy but great for drawing or mapping. The water-based ink responds similarly to watercolour and can easily be layered or lifted on good quality paper.
Product features:
Highly pigmented, lightfast and low staining.
Transparent, water-based ink (but not waterproof).
