Paint, Acrylic and Mediums

​

For quite a few years now I have been using the Derivan Matisse

range of acrylic paints, along with mediums, gesso and more.

It took years of trying other brands to determine the product that

was perfect for my art practice. 

 

I am very excited to announce I have teamed up with Derivan to

offer a discount to my followers and visitors to my website.

Masking Tape

​

It is suggested that the blue or green tape be used for

hard edge paintings, however, in my experience and

after extensive testing I have found them to be too rigid

for use on canvas. They may be acceptable on a hard

surface like a wall (why they exist) or perhaps wood,

but almost always bleed on canvas.

​

The tape I recommend is the cheapest masking tape you

can find as it is thinner, flexible and more suitable to use

on canvas. With the correct application it can produce a

totally bleed free result. 

​

The tape I use is from my local Mitre 10 store and it is the only one I will recommend.

Canvas

​

I am yet to find a canvas brand  I would exclusively recommend as much of my selection is based on sales and availability.
