Holbein Acrylic Gouache combines the rich handling of traditional gouache with the durability of acrylic paint. It uses high-quality pigments to deliver vibrant, highly opaque colour and a smooth, velvety matte finish. Once dry, it becomes water-resistant and permanent, allowing artists to layer colours without disturbing underlying paint. With minimal colour shift from wet to dry, artists can achieve predictable, consistent results every time.

Acrylic Gouache suits illustration, design, fine art, and mixed-media work. It dries quickly, adheres to a wide range of surfaces, and works seamlessly with acrylic mediums. It delivers professional-quality performance, bold colour, lasting durability, and the versatility artists need across a range of creative applications.
